In Northern Ohio we receive $ 40.00 for any High School Baseball or Softball game. We do not receive mileage or any other compensation - whether we drive 2 miles or 45 ( which I have done ). My association takes 10% of the game fee. That leaves me with $ 36.00 per game. If you do the math, I probably pay to officiate. If we work a game alone ( usually there are two officials for each High School game ), we only get pay for one - nothing more.
By the way, I also do Volleyball and Wrestling and there is no mileage for those sports either.
