I will say that one of my [et peeves is that, at the high school level, especially when JV games are played before the varsity games, the books are rarely ready at the 10 minute mark. That is why I usually wait to check it until the 7-8 minute mark. If the home bok is not ready by then, I have started games with a technical foul.

Walter, I understand you give a little leeway if the book is not ready by the 10 minute mark. The question I will ask. Is it asking too much for them to prepare the book between halves of a JV game? I am just asking.
Rook, just a point. There is no rules requirement for the book to be "ready" at the 10-minute mark....or at any mark for that matter. The rules only require the teams to supply their team roster to the scorer by that time. After that, it doesn't really matter how long it takes the scorer to actually enter that roster into the book.

Just wanted to make sure that you understood the actual requirements of that particular rule.
