2 or 3 man crews

General rule in Texas is 3-person for 3A, 4A, and 5A games (three largest classes which make up most cities), 2-person for smaller schools and almost all sub-varsity.

Same in NM which is where I just left. In AZ, all 2 except for post season (not sure of which post season as this is my first here).

Out of curiosity, in places where varsity is 3 and sub-varsity is 2, how much are the game fees for each?

I guess a better way to put it is does the JV crew of 2 get paid more per person than the varsity crew of 3? I believe that's what is stopping us from going to 3 person crews for varsity, as the JV crew would get paid more per person than the varsity.

That is not the case in Illinois. Unless you agree to that as an official (I do not think I would do such a thing) you are paid per person. Now the rates around here usually are very similar with the intent of paying a 3 Person Crew. Some people work double headers, so that does not always apply when talking about a "per game" fee. I know we do not get two separate game fees in those cases.

I work in Northwest PA, We use a 3-whistle crew on all varsity contest both girls and boys. For sub-varsity we use a 2 whistle crew. I believe this is the same throughout the whole state and not just my area. Also our pay scale in my area is 63 for varsity, 45 (I think for JV) 40 for single game (7-9), 69 for Jr High double header 2 games. 100 for Triple Header. Fees will vary throughout the state.
