First HS assignment of the season last week. FR, JV, V matches. Get ready to start the FR match when I discover that the scorekeeper is a teacher at the school that has never kept a VB scorebook before. I ask him if he has at least had some training or watched somebody do it, he says yes and that he feels confident. OK...here we go. I am R2. After the third time in the first set that he buzzed and told me that we had an incorrect server (we didn't any of the times), I pretty much told him to just keep a running score and make sure that the scoreboard was right.

I will give him credit though, by the time we got into the V match, he was doing OK....I guess he just needed some repetition....
