You can solve the books not sitting next to each other and the coach's request to have the book at his end by putting the books on one "level" of the table, and the clocks on another.

For the past games, starting with the one that Rookiedude was an official, there's been an "X" taped to the floor. However, I've been observing that not all players are on it when they get called into the game.

Speaking of the "X" on the floor, like I mentioned above, since the Boys' V game that Rookiedude officiated, the "X" has been there in front of the official scorer via athletic tape on the floor. I requested a meeting with the HS Principal via e-mail before the games yesterday, since he was out sick, I met with the vice-principal. I mentioned about the "X" on the floor, he mentioned that plans are in place to redo floor markings & that have an "X" in either purple or gold could be placed in front of the official scorer, instead of using the athletic tape like now.

I had a supplement to the meeting with some rules/regulations excerpts concerning my observations that I wrote & printed out that I handed to the Vice-Principal. He was actively concerned about my observations. Just now gonna wait & see what transpires.
