Keeping track of all of the match data for a team on one sheet of paper (rather than 9 or 10) is certainly eco-friendly and cheaper. Would your scouts use tally marks on this master sheet to keep a running track of things like shots, or would they keep track elsewhere, and transfer the final numeric values into the spreadsheet at the end of the match?

I like the idea of keeping track of "assists" when crossing the drawbridge or sally port. I think that there are two types of assists, though: a) when the robot helps their alliance partners cross, and b) when an alliance partner helped the robot cross. Which are you tracking? If both types of assists are useful intelligence, might be worth adding a column and tracking both.

A bit of technical advice...using the "merge and center" option in Excel would allow you to get rid of the rose-colored cells and create a cleaner-looking header.
