NFHS Rule Changes

So our "state fees" are simply the cost of parts of the packet.

When you buy the packet you are then covered by insurance. As with most group plans it is "all or none" on the insurance.

The price of the packet is established by what is in it and any additional fees as charged by the local.

SO, the real answer to your post, we get nothing "free" from the OSAA. Our packet fee is just part of their revenue stream to keep them in business.

Regards,

PIAA dues are $30 and we receive Rule and Case books along with insurance coverage.

We then have chapter dues on top of that, which vary between chapters.
