Official Scorekeeping Guidelines

1. Team Scorekeeper:
   It is strongly recommended that each team designates an official scorekeeper. A paper scorebook or a scoring app must be used by the team to support any dispute regarding the game score. Neither the Home Team nor the Visiting Team is considered the official scorekeeper—the umpires are the official scorekeepers for each game.

2. Score Verification by Managers:
   Managers and/or team scorekeepers are responsible for verifying the score with the umpires immediately after the completion of each half-inning. This should be done proactively to ensure accuracy.

• Note: Once the first pitch of a new inning is thrown, the umpire’s score for the previous inning is considered official and cannot be disputed or changed.

3. Score Reporting & Discrepancies:
   The game score will be reported to the site director. If you notice an incorrect score posted online, report the discrepancy to the site director immediately. All game scores can be viewed on the tournament website.
