Exactly. The table crew needs to stick to their responsibilities under 2-11 and 2-12 and let the game officials deal with what they are responsible for. I'm far more impressed with someone that shows up on time and does their job conscientiously and consistently, as opposed to those who for some reason (ego?; self-importance?) try to impress people with how much they think they know, especially when the reality is they really don't know as much as they think they do and understand far less. Don't get me wrong, I encourage and applaud anyone that wants to become a student of the game to expand their knowledge and understanding of basketball - just use it appropriately.
Sometimes I think people forget that the game isn't about the coaches, the officials, the table crew or the fans - it's about the players.

Table Crew Waiting List
At one of our local High Schools there is a waiting list of people for the table jobs. It typically requires something extreme, like a death to move up that list...obviously not so with the Jr Highs.

Varsity here gets paid (the scorebaord operator/timer does), for the subvarsity games, it's volunteer (unless a parent is trying to pay off their child's fees). For 4A Regionals last year, if I remember right, the table crew was getting paid $10 a game (PA Announcer, Shot Clock, Scorer, & Timer). |

The list is for Wenatchee, I know someone who is on the list but because he only has at best 40 more years on the planet isn't expecting to get the call...I don't know about Eastmont. Now that I think about it the table crew for the JV games at Wenatchee had the same set of experienced people every game. They were good too, letting us know when it was bonus or double bonus, great with the arrow, etc.

Down here, I wish there was a list of people on the waiting list, but that isn't so. From my understanding, there's only 3-4 people that can do shot clock, & only 3-4 people that can do scoreboard/timer. As for scorebook, we have one person that does the Varsity books, but for JV & C-Squad, it's whoever is available to do it even if they have no training. |
