The schools actually send me a check (or Arbiter transfers funds into my checking account) for $94.63.
At the end of the season I pay an assignment fee of 7% that goes into our local board's general fund, not directly to our assignment commissioner, who receives an annual salary ($32,550.00, seventy schools, 350 members) from our board regardless of how many games he assigns. I also have to pay annual local board dues of $125.00, and of course, Uncle Sam eventually gets income taxes (after deducting mileage, dues, fees, insurance, uniforms, shoes, equipment, laundry, etc.), and social security contributions.
