How much do you get paid?

wow, you guys make way more than us. Here in Bellingham, wa (next to canada) we make:

55.00 - HS varsity

43.00 - HS JV

45.00 - HS C single

40.00 - HS C

Babe ruth is done by kids with little or no experience umpiring. We get a travel fee, but it is flat rate, included in the above pay. We do weekend tournaments for U16 & U18 that are traveling teams who are actually good. These pay 40.00/game, and you do three games straight usually, but the games are 7 inning with a 2 hr time limit, and we get free food.

All I can say is, with the way gas prices are these days, no one can say that officials of any sport just do this for the money.....

These rates are not accurate. The state of Washington has uniform, within the classifications, HS baseball officiating rates set to protect schools in outlaying areas from getting scrwed. These are not them unless you are adding in the mileage expense you contract for locally. While rates are uniform within the sports, they are not uniform sport to sport. You can check with the WIAA/WOA for accurate information on game fees for the different sports in Washington.

if you had read my whole first post, you would have run into the part about these including travel fees.
