I am the official scorekeeper for jv/varsity games. The other night the referee called the foul on number 23, but all three of us at the scorers table could see that it was on 21, so we didnt know if he just called the wrong number or not, so we called him over. I motioned him over, and was going to explain why we called him over, when the visitor book started saying that she thought it was on 21, in a rude manor. He told her to cool down, and went to talk to the other official. He came back and he changed it to 21, but was snobby abou it. Ive had this happen at other games also, we call them over and do it orderly and the officials are good about it. I was just wondering what many of you feel what we should do.

You are correct to do it orderly and respectfully. You can see that when the visiting scorer became rude, the official didn't appreciate it. My guess is that if you had handled it, there probably wouldn't have been a problem.
