Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
We just ran an FTC Qualifier event and we were asked by half the teams what the asterisk meant on the schedule. While this is documented well in [section 13.6.2 of the tournament guide](https://ftc-resources.firstinspires.org/ftc/game/manual-13#:~:text=If%20a%20team%20plays%20a,carry%20forward%20to%20subsequent%20MATCHES.) there was no indication to its meaning on the schedule sheets.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
A footnote on the printed schedules with a brief description of what a surrogate match is. A possible example:

> * Surrogate match; alliance results do not affect team tournoment standings. For details please see --manual-link--

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
1. Do nothing (problem persists)
2. QR code to game manual
3. Conditionally add footnote (don't add for schedules without surrogate matches).

**Additional context**
TODO: image of the match schedule
