Players not in book

[SCalScoreKeeper]

This is easily preventable by the official scorer-had this scenario in a JVG game two weeks ago:

On varsity my policy is to carry copies of each teams roster in my notebook.Upon arrival of visiting teams I have the coaches verify the roster and make corrections if needed.The only corrections I had this year were injury/illness scratches.My rosters and starters for girls games are in well before the start of the warm-up clock.Boys coaches don't show up until 3'rd quarter of girls game so I usually need about 6 minutes to get the rosters/starters verified and in.

On JV I just copy the previously submitted roster for league teams.If dealing with an out of league opponent I copy their book.Regardless of level I will always ask a coach to verify their roster and then get their starters.

*In this scenario I copied the roster from the previous game (league opponent) and asked the V head coach to verify # and names are correct.She did and midway thru the first quarter we had a problem.After an offensive rebound and basket by V timeout was called by H and as I went to give the V shooter her points the number wasn't in the book.Called the R over and told him the scenario.R brings coach over and asked her if I had asked her to verify the roster-she says yes and R gives her a T for changing a number.Kid wore #11 the first time (their home game) and #42 this time (our home game)-checked remaining numbers and everything was good.

Well, in most cases, but not always.....

We had a VB game last week. The JV coach had been named interim head coach earlier in the week. A new scorer was being used as apparently the former scorer only worked for the now former head coach. We had a player with his JV number in the book (remember, the head V Coach was also the JV coach). They also decided to dress an extra player about 5 minutes before pregame ended.

RESULT: Two book violations during the first half. One Technical for the first violation....No technical for the second violation per rule highlighted by JRut previously.

Does the coach also lose their box for this Technical Foul? if he/she does then the officials got part of the rule correct as she was allowed to remain standing for the next three quarters.

No T (direct or indirect) on the coach for book related T's. Those are team technical fouls only.
