I'm really interested in this as a by-the-rulebook written test question, like one of those tricky questions that the NFHS, or IAABO, comes up with every year.

Please continue discussing.

Ok, well article 1 states ...
ART. 1

A team shall not:

Fail to supply the scorer with the name and number of each team member who may participate ...

So, if they show up after the 10 min mark, and the official scorer already has their info, seems like they've met the requirement. Remember, the requirement is to provide the official scorer with the required information. Not make sure they are in the book by the 10 min mark.
