IAABO? If not, why not? If you are, why?

I can only speak about my local IAABO board here in my little corner of 100% IAABO Connecticut. There are five other local IAABO boards in Connecticut.

Our annual local IAABO dues are $125 per member.

Of that $125, $30 goes toward our IAABO International annual dues, $5 goes toward our Connecticut State IAABO Board annual dues, and $13 goes toward our CIAC (state interscholastic sports governing body) annual dues.

In addition to our $125 per member local IAABO board annual dues, we also pay an annual assignment fee of 7% of our individual cumulative game fees for the season to our local IAABO board. Our local IAABO board assignment commissioner (that we hire on a year to year contract) gets approximately 5% of that 7%, the remaining 2% of that 7% goes to our local board.

Note that all of these figures were budgeted for; they may have changed since the spring.
