We thought we would label them A-F from left to right as the teams are looking at the field. I will do a mock up of the form shortly.

yeah, exactly. the role of the analyst almost alludes to
having to set up something like this.
other things to consider: is 3 the bottom, or the top, which would be more consistent with the scoring? is 6 letters too many to mentally sort while you're in the middle of driving (hence breaking it up into L/R grid as well)?

indeed -- we were going to try this as well (assuming they don't somehow make it illegal, but i don't see how they could or why they would)
