After a match, who is responsible for signing the score sheet?

After a match, the process of signing the score sheet involves multiple officials to ensure accuracy and accountability. The scorer, as the official who records the detailed match statistics, must sign to confirm that the information has been accurately recorded based on their observations. The first referee, being the head official responsible for overseeing the match, also signs the score sheet to verify the final result and the rulings made during the game. Additionally, the second referee may be involved in this process to provide further verification and oversight.

This multi-signature requirement serves as a safeguard against discrepancies and helps maintain the integrity of the match results, ensuring that all aspects of the game are collectively acknowledged by the key officials. The inclusion of all three signatures helps create a comprehensive official record of the match outcome.
