I had revenue of about $21,000 in 2014 and mileage of about 11,000. Took all (I think) the other expenses I was entitled to. I don't go making stuff up just to increase my expenses. |

We pretty much do two games every time. 2 jh was $90, jv varsity $100, Var and var $110 plus mileage. I would say average game was 100ish miles round trip. However there is some nights where I would ride with someone else and get no mileage.

I go to 3 camps every off-season, one of them is 300 miles away. That will eat into profits.

I have typically made some money in most years but have lost in a few when I've bought uniform stuff AND gone to camps.

That makes sense. I was wondering how I could even be close to it but If I cut income nearly in half I can see the possibility. |

I'm in the same boat as Jeremy (And the same state). We nearly always work two games a night and I always show a pretty good profit. Once I whittle it down with mileage, uniforms, etc it is less sizeable, but I have shown a profit every year I have officiated.

Let me add a few:
a) I usually take a month and half off from officiating to recharge mental and physical batteries. b) I participate on our Board's Education Committee to train new officials. This gets me back into the rule book in earnest. c) Fortunate to work fall varsity schedules to get back in shape. d) My annual physical is scheduled in December in anticipation for the season. e) Review equipment and uniforms for wear and tear. Usually order 6 new whistles per year and purchase new apparel as needed. f) Review/update my varsity game bag and accessories. Extra everything in case needed at game site. i.e. shoe laces, sewing kit, ankle braces, knee braces, sports tape, shoe polish, grooming toiletries (shampoo, soap, lotion, tooth brush/paste, brush, towel), flip flops, static cling spray, lint roller, wooden hangar, laundry bag for wet uniform, shoe trees, pen/paper, muscle lotion, pain reliever (lots), Tums/Pepto, cough drops, contacts/glasses case, court chart w/magnets, safety pins, small lock, swiss army pocket knife) g) Contact partners at least one week before game to confirm. Confirm gym location and time allotted to arrive. h) Update personal spreadsheet with game schedule; partner ratings; game notes; paid date; commissioner fee. Update file of school's coaching staffs w/pictures as needed. i) Review "You make the ruling" videos j) Update Pregame Meeting sheets k) Water bottles l) Attend game dressed at least in business casual. Look sharp; officiate sharp. Arrive early enough minimally to watch JV game.
