How to say "scorer" in Japanese

• スコアラー
  nounA loanword covering 'scorer', 'scorekeeper', and 'record keeper'. It can be used for someone who scores as well as for someone who keeps score or records, so the context decides which is meant.
• 得点者とくてんしゃ
  nounThe scorer in the sporting sense: the player who scores a goal, run, or point. This is the word for naming who scored in a match or game.
• 採点者さいてんしゃ
  nounA marker or grader: someone who assigns scores, as in marking exam papers or judging a competition. It is the one who gives the marks, not the one who gets them.
• 採点官さいてんかん
  nounLike 採点者, a marker or grader; the 官 gives it the nuance of an official post, as of a judge or examiner formally appointed to assign scores.

For a player who scores goals or runs, use 得点者; for someone who assigns marks or grades, 採点者 or 採点官; 「スコアラー」 is the loanword covering scorer, scorekeeper, and record keeper — all four are relatively uncommon.
