Some notables for our scorekeepers:

Please make sure you arrive on time. Click here for a complete schedule for the gym you are working at to understand the activities expected. Below is a sampling.

All of our scorekeepers need to have a very good understanding of the “rules summary” sent. If you do not prepare, it will not go well as the referees will let us know. No worries – just be prepared!

Our scorekeepers will need to keep the chairs for the team benches spaced apart. At Crockett, you will need to let every team know we need spacing between players sitting on the bench. After the game, scorekeepers are to wipe down the player area and then help the Team Volunteers wiping down the fan area.

We likely need our scorekeepers to help our gym supervisor to get everyone to immediately exit when the game ends. The gym empties after each game.

Reminders/Notes: Wear your mask. Bring wipes for yourself as needed. Wash your hands throughout the day. Text Greg if you have a problem.

On the scorer’s table, there will be a scorebook and a league book. Should a technical be called, we need the sheet in the league book completed. If it is a player, get the first, last name and number. If it is a coach or fan, get the first and last name. If you have to ask another adult or one of the coaches for help getting that info, please do that.

Every scorekeeper pairing on the schedule except one has at least one person that worked last year. It is typically easier for the less experienced scorekeeper to keep the scoreboard. Those of you with experience, please help your new friend for the day.

At BMS, we have to roll the chairs over and put chairs out as a team bench.

At the end of the night following the last games, we will need to put the chairs up and return the gym to the condition for the start of the day.

Gym scoreboards:

Lipscomb and Crockett have the same scoreboard type. There will be a main controller at the scorer’s table. Edmondson and Jordan will use a smaller portable electronic scoreboard. BMS uses a tablet for the scoreboard.

Prior to the game, the scorekeeper working the book will need to get player numbers and names from the head coach. The rosters are in the scorebook. If a player is not listed, they are NOT eligible to play.

At Crockett for 5/6YO Coed play, each player at halftime would shoot one free throw. Any made count as a point. To speed up the process, let’s have each scorekeeper work with each team. Line everyone up. Free throw is 3’ shorter than the traditional foul line. We expect to have the line marked.
