According to the scoring guide Figure 14 and 15, it says the core must be touching the foam tiles to be scored. So the four caps that are tilted at the beginning of the match are considered not scored because the core is not touching? I have included a picture of what I am talking about.
Yes they are not scored, but really that’s not a problem. Just a small tap can knock the cap off of the ball
you just gotta make sure you dont tap it over to the other side tho
unfortunately stuff like this can only be speculated about until the actual items arrive and can be tested in its actual enviroment
