I have an old XL program that somebody wrote back about 5 years ago...I'd like to get an updated version if anyone has anything....

For me...I know I worked 82 games from Jan into March in one rec league I did....I added about another 10-15 from their travel program....Then over the summer I've been working anywhere from 2-8 games per weekend.

Typically the rec stuff in Indy is paying $20 to $25 per game depending on the league....There is one facility in Indy that only pays $15/game.

HS is all over the board...I've heard $45 to $95 depending on how far you travel...

So what about your area....and if you have any good ideas for keeping track of games/pay/mileage for tax purposes...let me know...

SD is typically $70 for high school games + mileage.....only the largest class and a few other schools assign, otherwise it's contract one and bring 1 or 2 partners.

College is $100/game with one mileage paid.

I just keep track of my info on a word document, filling in as I go. A lot of nights I won't get paid, it will come in the mail at a later date (I hate that and the keeping track of who has paid and who hasn't")... I also keep track of other expenses for the year for when tax season rolls around.
