GUIDELINES FOR RECORDING GAME STATISTICS 

Chip Rogers, "Lacrosse Statistics"

If you've ever wondered what constitutes an "assist" or "shot" in lacrosse, been confused about the difference between a "caused turnover" and an "interception", or scratched your head curiously thinking what an "FO" or "GB" is on a scoresheet, this article by Chip Rogers provides a detailed description of all facets regarding the interpretation and recording of everything that occurs during a lacrosse game.

The 2009 Women's Lacrosse Statisticians' Manual

This is the NCAA's official guidebook that is a must for everyone new to the game, and all those responsible for gameday scorekeeping. This is the manual used by all colleges as the go-to document on proper, accurate scoring.

Abbreviated Scorekeeper's Guidelines 

This is a two-page, highly condensed document that incorporates much of the terminology found in the Women's Lacrosse Statisticians' Manual.

Timer & Scorekeeper's Procedures

Refer to this two-page document to understand sideline etiquette for the scorekeeper/timers table, clock & horn management, and other important aspects about game administration.
