Table Official Off His Game That Night

Yes, definite knowledge applies in this situation-correct the home book and move on.At our school we use the Mark V books which gives you no established space under the team foul to record the jersey # of a player just called for a foul.What I have started to do this year is cross out the team foul and then record the jersey # next to the team foul.That way if things get a bit hairy and a coach says-"No # ___ does not have ___ fouls.She has ___." I can say she picked up team fouls (appropriate # of team fouls).If something like this were to happen in a game I was working I can go back and check my team fouls as a second reference.

You're using different Mark V books than we have here. The Mark V books we use here have both Player & Team Foul spaces.

The mark v books we use give all the standard stuff except where it gives team foul # and a space underneath to record the jersey in some books we just have the team foul number to cross off.What I meant to say was that after crossing off the team foul I write the jersey # of the player called for that foul next to the corresponding team foul.

Here's an image of the Mark V scorebook we use around here.

How's this for a scorebook?

Speaking of one rule would like to see changed, let's make all HS games become 16 minute halves (instead of 8-minute quarters) so that players can transition into college ball easier. Also, as I see it, a better scorebook.

That's a stupid reason. IMO of course.

I was trying to think of other reasons but my mind went blank
