I think it should be required to have the home and visiting scorekeepers sit next to each other and compare notes as the game goes on.

When I was coaching, I had this situation: My best player was whistled for her 3rd foul. My asst coach, our scorekeeper, and our statistician, who all 3 who work independently of each other, all had her for only 1 foul. There was no announcer and they weren't putting fouls on the board.

This is a case where two scorekeepers sitting beside each other would have avoided the problem. I think this should be a requirement.

I have kept score at places where this was done and we compared notes all game long and it went fine.
