Send in a real result
A result is shown here only where its source is named: a state association or league the site may read, a credited publication — Cal-Hi Sports, whose public scoreboard its robots.txt leaves open — the people in the stands, who report at Report a score, or a coach, who can send a season. This form adds one more: a person who saw a game, with a link a reviewer can open, and the contributor is the credit.
Why typing beats crawling
A score is a public fact. The obstacle was never the score, it was access. Some state associations publish schedules and scores a site may read, and those states are on the board, credited. Most don’t, and the big commercial scores sites don’t allow reuse.
None of that stops a person reading a score and writing it down. That is lawful, and it is what this form is.
What happens to it
It goes into a queue and waits for a person. It does not change a rating or a prediction. An accepted result is shown with its source named beside it. The generated fixtures are there for the model to predict and are never shown as results, so a real score is never mixed into them.
The other path is faster and needs no link. A score reported at Report a score by people at the ground shows once two of them agree, and becomes the game result once three separate voices with enough standing agree, credited “via the stands” with a count of people.
A link is required. A claim about a real school that nobody can check is worth less than no claim, which is the same rule the school colours and the alumni counts are held to.
