"Providing the Roster"

[IREFU2]

Okay, just checking. I know on the NC2A-W side:

Section 3. Lineup

Art. 1.

Before the 10-minute mark is reached on the game clock that is counting down the time before the start of the game, each team shall supply the scorers with names and uniform numbers of squad members who may participate, and those of the five starting players.

It doesnt state that they have to be in the official scorers book, but the few times that I checked prior to the 10 minute mark, the information was in the book. Just my two cents.

Just adding the word "written" could solve a lot of problems.

I would disagree with this, whereas who is a coach going to verbally supply information to the official scorer and how is he/she going to remember it? The key would is supply, which means basically to give something....

Does this mean the rule is different on the Men's side?

And secondly, where does it say in any rules that the information has to be in the book at the 10 minute mark?

Have no idea what the NC2A-M do and I didnt say that the information had to be in the book, I put in bold, shall supply. The rule that I stated above was the NCAA rule interpretation.

Of course the names don't have to be in the book by the 10-minute mark. That's not the rule at any level, and not the question being discussed here.

I think in this case you could justify giving or not giving a T. I would lean toward giving it. If the visiting team supplies a written roster with a verbal addendum, and they don't follow up to ensure the official book got the addendum, that's their fault IMHO. It takes 5 seconds to scribble the additional name/number on the roster and it eliminates any he-said/she-said.
