NF 4-34-2 says that "statisticians" are bench personnel. Does this include the person keeping the visitor's book who is seated at the score table? Can an official call a technical foul on this person while they are at the table and if so, is it also an indirect on that head coach?

Didn't we just recently discuss this in another thread and decided they weren't bench personnel and to just have them removed/replaced?

We did but I don't remember which thread it was

I "T"ed up the score keeper.....
No misprint. I "T"ed up the score keeper for the visitors today. He's the guy keeping the book at the table.

I report the foul "12 black Illegal use of the hands", and when I do, the coach yells ( and BTW, he is winning at the time by 10 points ) "She wasn't any where near the play" The book keeper yells " She wasn't any where near the play." Bang. T Because I am not going to have the score keeper yelling at me during the game.

We also sat the coach for the rest of the game. I have never "T"ed at score keeper, but I figure he is part of the coaches staff and therefore, coach gets to ride the bench for the rest of the game. Right?

BTW, 12 black was where I said she was and she did foul the player and it was only her 1st foul....3rd quarter for your processing info.
