Thanks for the input. I'll definitely be checking for legal and duplicate numbers from here on out, probably even more so for sub-varsity games with these schools that likely can't afford new uniforms on a regular basis.

On a slightly different note - was running the clock last night for a MS game officiated by a different association than mine. (My wife is a teacher at this particular school and I try to help out when possible.) The referee made a point of coming to the table and signing the book to verify the score and fouls at the end of each quarter. I have never, ever seen this. I certainly don't plan on doing it; has anyone else ever heard of that?

When I'm the 'R' verify the book(s) after each quarter, but I do not sign or initial them.

When you say verify, I assume you mean fouls and score match all 3 (both books and scoreboard)? I do this at the end of quarters as well. I also do it during a TO if the game is close towards the end of the game. We had an issue on a local board a couple years ago where a bug rivalry game would have gone into OT if they went by the scoreboard and visitors book. Unfortunately, the home book had the home team up by one at the end of regulation. They had to go with the home book since the officials didn't have definite knowledge.
