Here in Northern Michigan we usually get $35 for a single game and $65 for a double header. Some schools include mileage. JV usually pays $10 per game less. I've worked here in Michigan for nearly 17 years now, and this is standard, not just select schools ripping us off.

In fact, for the state tournament I think, the MHSAA still pays only $40 at the District and Regional level, and only $50 bucks for doing the semi-finals and finals. How is it that Michigan is apparently so far behind?

(Oh, by the way...LL here is voluntary...once in a while some may pay up to $20)
Uh.. hope it won't ruin your day, but 16 year olds get paid better than that ($35) for doing U12 in some leagues around here.
HS Varsity = $60 [actually, it may be $65 this year (new contract)]
JV= $55
Heck, we have one league that pays $55 for 13 yo 90' ball [all 2-man].
You guys need a union
