Score sheet submission process updated

This article is taken from the 7-8 July 2026 edition of Bases Loaded, the official newsletter of Manchester Softball League. We re-share it below to celebrate the success in making the score sheet submission process easier for our busy team captains – kudos to Abbie Overington and Harry Somers for their efforts.

You may have noticed in recent weeks that score sheets appearing in the “Results” WhatsApp group soon after submission, as illustrated here.

We have been working hard to make this happen (and to have the information correctly presented). There have been a few teething problems, but we can now revise the official procedure for submitting scores online. In short:

• You should still take a screenshot before submission (just in case), but;
• if the sheet appears automatically, which it should do almost instantly, there is no need also to post your screenshot.
  

Screenshots are, of course, still a requirement if you are using paper forms, old-school. And losing captains should still acknowledge with a thumbs up.
