Try using two if statements instead of a single if/else.

Also, sorry for the stupid question but have you checked to make sure the walls have the correct names?

The variable names do not equal the object name.

What you are doing is trying to compare the object name of the collided wall with a string version of the variable name, not with what the wall is actually called.

I mean, I $$anonymous$$ghly doubt the walls in your object $$anonymous$$erarchy are called "rightWall" and "leftWall", right?

In your object $$anonymous$$erarchy, call your walls somet$$anonymous$$ng like "Left Wall" and "Right Wall" if you haven't already, then change your if/else statement to t$$anonymous$$s:

 if(wallName == "Right Wall")
 {
     playerScore01 += 1;
 }
 else if (wallName == "Left Wall")
 {
     playerScore02 += 1;
 }
