Anyone responsible for scoring games for HPHL must familiarize themselves with the information in this section.
All games must be scored live using an iPad.
Paper-only scoring is no longer permitted, as officials and coaches must sign off on Game Sheets immediately after the game.
Player Selection:
Starting with the 2024 season, all players will default to "unselected."
There should NEVER be more than 20 active players, including goalies, on the game sheet (up to 18 skaters and 2 goalies).
Coaches:
Coaches on the bench must be marked as "coaching". If a coach is absent, change their status to "away," or if serving a suspension, "suspended".
Suspensions:
If a player or coach is serving a suspension, note which suspension it is (e.g., "1st of 1 game" or "2nd of 3 games").
Affiliated Players:
Players pulled up from lower teams or borrowed goalies must be added as "affiliated players" for that specific game. Do not add them permanently; they must be added as "for this game only" each time they are pulled up.
Roster Review:
The head coach from each team must sign on the iPad prior to the game to confirm the accuracy of the roster.
Goalie Changes:
Indicate any goalie changes on the Game Sheet. Shots on goal are recorded as they are taken, so ensure goalie changes are accurately logged to keep shot counts correct.
Penalties:
At the end of the game, review, count, and verify penalty information with the official. Add additional game misconducts as needed (e.g., 4 penalties by the same player, 12 penalties by the same team, or 2 major penalties by the same player).
Official Sign-Off:
The official must sign the Game Sheet, verifying the accuracy of the game data.
Game Notes:
Document any suspensions or additional information in the Game Notes section.
Upload the Game:
Remember to upload the game after the referee signs off on the game.
Below is a downloadable blank scoresheet for notes, if needed.
