Had this type of situation Tuesday night. Visiting team had 12 in the book, 14 on the floor. My partner was Ref and when he checked the book and discovered this, he gave the coach the chance to add the players explaining the "just in case" situations. The coach said they were not going to play under any circumstance and kindly refused to add the players (all interaction between coach and ref was professional). The book was left as submitted. My partner informed me of the situation when he returned from checking the book and, just before the start of the game we made sure the scorebook keeper knew the situation as well and to inform us if a player is requested to be added or reports for substitution (at the appropriate time).
