In Louisiana public schools, we pay the AS $35 for the season and get paid at each game. The schools pay him $50 for jr high and $75 for varsity for the year. We usually get a check at the middle of last game. In our assocoation we normally do 2-man and get $16 for jr high and $18 for varsity plus travel. La. has three classifications of officials and the bonus for that is $1.00 and $3.00 per game. We also get $.30 per mile travel per offical. Believe it or not every so often an official will say "this sure is a great way to make money".
In private school, we pay the AS $30 for the season and the schools pay $75 I think. Most private schools pay in cash and most never ask for a signature or a SS#. We get $30 for JV and $40 for varsity with no travel. Most of the time we do 4 games a night when calling private schools.
After reading the posts above, I don't think we are going to have a great influx of officials from out of state trying to get a piece of the pie.
