Can an error be corrected is the score sheet is taken home and both captains have signed the recap sheet?
While there is no rule violation, it is not advisable for a team captain to take the score sheet home to check. To prevent misunderstandings, the scores should be checked at the lanes with a member of the opposing team or a neutral witness. However, if a score sheet is taken home and an obvious error is found the matter needs to be referred to the board for a decision. Although Rules 104a and 116a require the captains to sign the score book and verify the scores bowled, their signatures do not prevent a score from being corrected. An officer is required by Rule 116a to correct errors if they are found after the captains have signed the recap sheets. Both captains should be notified of the corrections.
