You will also need to provide housing for the umpires. Standard two to a room, plus a single for the UIC. Generally, this can be negotiated with the largest hotel where you house the teams.

Hospitality is also a factor; you can often get lower games rates if you provide meals for the umpire crew. Liquids during games is a minimum expectation; snacks and drinks between games is also a relative expectation.

If you are trying to build a reputation as a top tournament, 3 umpires per game is a good investment.
