I liiiiiiiike to wear women's clothing
And haaaaaang around in....

Wha...oh...he-he...sorry!

Where are you located in MS? I grew up in Hattiesburg, attended USM - class of '70 (that's 1970, not 1870):D

Oklahoma

Pay is done by individual school districts
rates varied by a districts wealth or poverty
as so many districts in Oklahoma are.

High end:
Varsity - $50 to $65 with my average being closer to $50
JV - $40 to $55 with my average being around $50 again.

Low end:
Varsity and JV - $35 to $50

I average in the about $40 for the low end schools. I actually take alot of the "low end" poorer school districts because they pay milage at a better rate than the higher end districts. Milage doesn't make up for the extra $15 but alot of times I'll pick up games in my home town so my wife and I will just make a weekend out of it and go home to see our parents and collect a game check and millage going somewhere we would have probably gone anyway. It's really nice when I can get a Friday-Saturday back to back set and collect milage twice.

You rip off artist! JUST JOKING!!!!!!! We actually did it this year. We were working a tourney and used one mileage check to pay for the hotel room since we were 150 miles from home and had the afternoon games the next day!

Jackson, however, I am not from here. I have been in MS 8 years now.

HUH? I am must be an idiot because I am not following this.

gostars will probably explain it better , but I have heard about this. Officials get a percentage of the gate receipts in Texas. I understand that in a big time HS football game, they can take home quite a game fee.

Where do I sign up? :D

Rec league I work for is $18 per game, 6 minute quarters. It's not great pay, but you can get all the games you want. An official I know worked 13 consecutive games during the winter tournament.

I personally wouldn't recommend that. Five games in a row is really pushing my limit.

In San Diego, CA
Varsity 2 or 3 person $55/game
JV and Freshman $40/game
Fees are slightly higher for playoffs and sectionals

A little bit different from the earlier post regarding game fees in Kentucky...

In Kentucky, each region has a policy board that sets the game fees for the officials in that region. In my region, we get the following:

JV (2 person): $40
Varsity 2 person: $65
Varsity 3 person: $55 per person

Just curious to what region you are from? I'm from the 12th and our fees are as follows:

2 person crew: $65 per official
3 person crew: $60 per official

Yeah - thats for two man... I've got the three man list somewhere i just forgot where..

VARSITY GAMES ONLY! does the gate percentage apply, In the houston area we've goin to flat rate contract games + gate after so many dollars but its more than what TASO sets as a guideline. Three-person crews only take a 4 or 5 dollar hit. This year in houston, and someone can correct me if i'm wrong, Contracted Public School games were 65.00 (3-person)
Sub-varsity is a set pay scale, All districts that the Houston Chapter of TASO have agreed to 14.00 milage so your game fees usualy end up
$39
$54
$69

Sub-Varsity tournys are 25 dollars a game + mileage.
Varsity Tournys are 40 dollars a game plus 10 or 12 dollars mileage.

in MT
 

In Montana, all high school sports in all areas pay the same fee:

Varsity: $50
Sub-Varsity $30

I personally think it's kind of bogus that a volleyball official who stands still makes the same as a basketball official who tends to run 2-3 miles a game.
