In Michigan we must belong to State H.S. association; they provide books (Rules, Case, Ump), rules clinics, and run the State tournaments. Fee is $30.

Can't speak for East Side, but in our area the local association assigns all games, receives fee from schools.
Pay is $37 Varsity, $33 JV (doubled for DH). Freshmen play 2 five inning game DH, one man crew - pay is $62.

I live between two meto areas. In area south where umpires contract their own games, schools do not pay assignment fees so game fees are higher ($45 JV, $50 Varsity).

Other than freshmen, we are never assigned 1 man games. However, if circumstances dictate working alone then we get both checks.

No mileage except for State semi's and finals, then also get housing and food accomdations.
