Anyway, to answer your question I don't know why your negotiating starting point is to add a 3rd official for absolutely free. Why don't you start from a position of at least 70% of the per official fee going to each of the 3 officials. Your goal should be to preserve as much of the per man fee you have now and move to 3 man... if that makes sense
You might want to ask for more than 70% of the per official fee.

Proof:
$50 per official, 2 man game = $100 per game.
$100 per game / 3 officials = $33.33 per official
$33.33 / $50 = 66.66%

75% = $37.50 per official = $112.50 per game
80% = $40 per official = $120 per game

You're asking for $1.67 more

Math is sooo hard. Anyways...

Do people actually work HS varsity for $50?

I was thinking along the lines of a 15% to 20% drop per man, in your world $40 per official (geeze I think twice before working AAU at $40 a game... but that's another topic).

Net is do not just add a third official for no additional outlay from the school.

$50 is what I got for varsity in Da UP two years ago, don't know if its changed. Using 50 is much easier for the math too!

The number of officials is of no consequence to me, since I always get 100% of the total game fees. The other official(s) work for free because they consider it such an honor to work with me.

Three words for you: Meds, meds, and meds.

Even without my meds, I know that's four words.
