Lineup Card (click for excel template)
Purpose: Scorekeeping provides an official record of the game and assists umpires and managers in keeping track of score and plays during the game. More importantly, we keep score to build a record of how many games a player plays (for All-Stars eligibility), ensure Fair Play rules compliance, and adherence to pitch count / Catcher/Pitcher rules. Statistics generated in GameChanger are from a limited sample set and should not be weighted too heavily.
Team Manager: SRLL uses GameChanger's Team Manager app as the official method for scoring games in MAPS through Juniors Divisions. Because Team Manager is linked with the SRLL SportsConnect website, game schedule changes will be automatically updated on team's TM App. One scorekeeper, as a staff for EACH team, will be required to keep score for each game. Unlike in previous years, each team will have a separate scoring feed. Livestream is also available from a separate device. **More information on the SRLL website under MISC > USING THE TEAM MANAGER APP
Lineups: It’s best for the manager or scorekeeper to set the batting order and first inning positions in GameChanger prior to the game. Otherwise, the scorekeeper can set the lineup at the field using the GC app. Both managers must provide lineup cards including last names and jersey numbers to the scorekeeper prior to the game. We recommend generating a lineup card from Team Manager or using the lineup card provided here.
Other notes:
-Show up with sufficient battery life or bring a portable charger.
-Scorekeeping books are available in the sheds as a backup / emergency plan. Take a photo and submit it to the Chief Scorekeeper, or better yet, input the game yourself later.
If you have questions please contact the SRLL Chief Scorekeeper.
