1. State does not require travel pay. Some regions/assocs don't pay any. Obviously ours takes travel into consideration. We are 45 minutes away from the nearest school (our choice) and fuel can get tough on us but it is a better place to call plus we get paid the difference as the local assoc, which has 6 schools within a 10 minute drive from here, only pays $55.

2. The state says each school will pay a minimum fee of $50 per official per contest. The local/regional board of control either adopts the minimum or decides what amount over the min they are willing to pay. The region we work has a good BOC.

3. In playoff games I think the person traveling the furthest, who is considered to be the driver, is given the travel pay based on mileage. If he meets someone at another point and the other person drives, the one payed is expected to square up with the other driver.

Our crew hasn't been real good about helping with fuel. We somewhat agreed at the beginning of the season that each person pays the driver 5 bucks for 100 mile drives and 10 bucks for over 100. Our games are either 100 mile round trip or 160. We figured that a 100 mile trip would take 20 bucks gas. The longer trips wouldn't take double the fuel but would be more wear, tear, and exposure. We use a suburban that is pretty comfy.
