There are few ways this job can be done in simple ways.

1. Have your scouts going around with paper and pencil to gather information. At the same time have them report back to one person who will computerized the whole data (Word or Notepad would work). So by the time your team get to a match, one only have to use Ctrl+F and type in the team number to find the information.

2. Last year our programmers were really bored, so they put together a program called ScoutPro. It was simply build and was mainly to input data about teams, including the result of all the matches and etc. Unfortunately the license expired and we were not able to use it this year.

Other than that, using paper-pencil method is simple and more fun. You don't have to carry a laptop around, plus you actually 'talk' to the other team and take notes instead of supporting a laptop on your lap and trying to type in the data.
