Revised Dual Team Lineup Sheet

Details

Written by: Vic Ramsey

Published: August 09, 2024

For the past several years, the NCHSAA has required the use of a "dual-team lineup sheet", which coaches exchange prior to the beginning of the match.

Over the summer, NCHSTCA leadership, working with Caitlin McMannen at NCHSAA, revised the lineup sheet to address several shortcomings of the previous version, and to reduce confusion about what coaches can and cannot do with their dual-team lineups.

In addtion, we've written a "user's guide" to the revised lineup sheet, to explain what's changed and how the lineup sheet is to be used.

Click here for a .pdf copy of the lineup sheet, and for a copy of the user's guide.

An interactive Excel version of the lineup sheet, which you can download and complete on your own computer, is being emailed to all coaches for whom we have an accurate email address. If you have not received your copy, please send an email to our This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
