When I talk to some people, they comment on how well we are paid. ($50 / high school game, which takes 2 hours.)

I tell them for every hour we spend on the field, we spend at least an hour off the field. This includes clinics, conferences, camps, etc.

Then we have our uniform, etc. I spend some each year on items that need replacing.

Most people are shocked to hear what we actually get paid all things considered.
