i had somethign similar happen in a 6th grade boys game yesterday. Visting team submitted their scorebook, but had no starters listed. However, the coach had a list of his players and which quarters he was planning to play them*. Since the 10 minute mark was coming up, I just put the names listed to start the first quarter.
After announcing the starters, the visiting coach is telling our coach that #14 was supposed to start instead of #5. Technically, I don't know if this should be penalized, but I wasn't going to make too big a deal out of it.

* in our CYO league, players on the 6th grade level must appear in 2 quaterrs, but no more than 3 in a regulation game. In overtime, anyone may play.
