What has the game fee got to do with treating girls fairly?

Title IX addresses giving girls the same opportunites and benefits as boys. If boys have access to the weight room, then girls should too. If the school provides uniforms for the boys team, they must provide them for the girls. If the school provides three officials for boys games, they should provide three officials for girls games.

Why do you provide three officials for boys? Because it's a better officiated game. Your situation is a Title IX action waiting to happen.
