Double no show

[Buckets4life]

At our recent competition there were multiple matches where both teams from an alliance didn’t show up. The manual states

For a Qualifying Match, if no member of a team is present in the driver station at the start of a
match, that team is declared a “no show” and will receive zero (0) WP and zero (0) SP. A “no
show” is treated exactly the same as a Disqualification.

Though the refs ruled it as with neither team showing up even if the alliance was there scored for the no show alliance they would get no strength points. I’m wondering was this the right call? Thanks in advance!

Yes, this was correct. In a match where both teams on an alliance were disqualified or noshows, the disqualified/no show alliance receives no WPs and no SPs. While their opponent alliance receives their own score as their SP for that match.
