Money issues

How do most places around the country get paid? Does the individual schools pay the officials or does their local association pay the officials? I prefere to get paid at the site with a check. What are the association dues around the country? I heard some places have fees as low as $30 and as high as $100. I was in an association that we paid $75 and that covered association dues, rule books, and liability insurance. Also, are there any areas that have associations that take a percentage out of your check that you receive? I think it is too steep if you pay almost $100 in registration fees and still have the local association take almost another $100 out of each check every month that goes to the association. And what about youth sports and out of season tournaments and leagues, do most of them pay cash on the spot for those games?
