My local HS board dues are $100. This includes my IAABO dues, state board dues, insurance, board executives salaries, etc. We pay no assessment for our assignments. The assignor is hired by the conference and they pay him directly. I believe that he is paid one game check per team schedule that he assigns. (So he gets 6 game checks per school, one each for boys var, JV, Frosh, girls var, JV, and Frosh.)
My college dues are $50 and we pay an assessment to the ECAC that varies depending on how many games we are initially assigned at the beginning of the season. It can be anywhere from $50 to $125, I think. (I never get enough assignments to pay the highest assessment. Oh well.
