9.7Scoring Responsibility
It is the competitor’s responsibility to provide the correct scorecard for each stage, match and entry division, and to verify their scores as written on the scorecard when finished shooting each stage. When electronic scoring is used (e.g., PractiScore) it is still the competitor’s responsibility to review their times prior to their score being saved on the scoring device. When the score is available the competitor must approve the score in the software by personally clicking the “approve” or similar button as the electronic equivalent of signing a score sheet. Users leaving a stage after shooting who do not personally tap the approve or equivalent button forfeit their right to protest a stage score and defer the approval of their score to the scorekeeper on that stage. NOTE: At this time PractiScore is the only USPSA/SCSA approved electronic scoring software for Steel Challenge matches.
Any questions regarding the scores entered on the scorecard or into the scoring software should be directed to the Range Officers on the stage before signing the scorecard or approving the electronic score. If questions remain, the Range Master should be summoned.
When the scorecard has been signed by the competitor and the or when the times have been recorded and saved on the scoring tablet it is definitive and cannot be changed, other than to correct math errors or by mutual consent of the Range Officers, Range Master, and competitor.
Coaching: For Level I (club matches) a competitor may request the scoring , or other squad member other than the Range Officer running the timer, call misses during the course of fire. The competitor should notify the Range Officer prior to commencing the course of fire. Reshoots will not be given if a Range Officer or other squad member mistakenly calls a hit a miss or a miss a hit. Calling hits and/or misses is not permitted at Level II or higher events. At any level match, the range officer may assist or remind the competitor of stage requirements, magazine changes, etc. without penalty. Helping with chamber flags is encouraged in order to speed stage turnaround. No coaching by competitors is permitted outside of the stated allowances herein.
