official scorers
Match record keepers
Official scorers are individuals appointed to record the official statistics and make judgment calls during sporting events.
In baseball, the official scorer determines whether a play is a hit or an error, affecting player statistics and records.
The official scorer ruled it an error on the shortstop.
Similar roles exist in basketball, hockey, and other sports where statistical determinations require human judgment.
