I agree with you 100% on this Will. Cell phones have become a huge distraction. Many people just can't function without them. I predict that if things don't change, twenty years from now we will become known as the bent neck society.

The other reality, even from a seasoned vet of the sport, it is not an easy task to be scoring from the scorers table for a day long tournament. You have to be paying attention, paying keen attention for hours on end. I experienced this at our League Tournament a few years back and after a long day you start to drift a little at times. You don't need another distraction, like a cell phone, to really set you adrift.
