Our interpreter has been asked to review the logistics of this application to make sure that it complies with the NFHS rules.

One of the schools that wants to use this application lost a game last year due to an error involving the home scorebook and the visible scoreboard. Supposedly, this application would avoid this type of error.

As long as the iPad isn't being "typed into" from the bench, there's no relevant rule about it. I don't know of any rule that requires the scorebook be kept on paper.
