Regards high school: In my association it is our responsibility to call in and check with the office or AD two hours prior to game time if the conditions appear "iffy". If we are told that the game is on, we get paid whether it is or not when we get there. If we do not call, we do not get paid if the game is cancelled prior to start time.
I also assign Bronco, Mustang, Pony and Colt. My policy with my umpires in those leauges: If I notify an umpire two hours prior to the game of a cancellation, he gets no fee. If there is no notification and the umpire shows up and finds the game cancelled, he gets half a game fee. If the game starts and is suspended, he gets a full game fee.
Cancelling the game prior to start time is the responsibility of the coaches and commissioners. They are aware of my policy and are responsibile for the fees, so they do their best to notify me of cancellations as soon as feasible.
