The cost has gone up because of the insurance that you get with it. Even the NFHS membership, which Camron mentions, has gone up. A couple of years ago, it was $12 a year. Now it's $30. Also, Fee loss, Catastrophic Medical and Cardiac/Circlatory Death Benefit Coverages are no longer included in the insurance package. Our state association has had to go up on insurance as well.

Like Camron, I'm not a fan of REFEREE "I hope they don't sue me for typing that" magazine. I did enjoy parts of the magazine but they ARE NOT God's gift to officiating, which they seem to think they are. But I understand why these organizations are having to raise their fees. Unfortunatley, it's the world in which we live.
