Pay cut to work 3 man?

[Adam]

I think most areas have a pay cut of some degree compared to the 2 person fees. Here, it's (recommended by the state) $55 for two, or $47 for three.

Not us man. Three person pays more than two for a single game.

Must have something to do with Chicago politics.

Seriously, I'm impressed. Is it because the smaller schools are the ones using 2 person for varsity?

Actually this is not about Chicago at all. I live in the suburbs, but I officiate all over the state from the Northern part to West Central Illinois and Central Illinois. I work big and small schools and every game is 3 Person. The only thing that might happen with some small schools is they ask the officials to work a JV/Varsity double header. But that is starting to go away more and more. I cannot speak for the entire state, but I work in a lot of places and this is the norm across the parts I have seen.

Or Freshman or Sophomore (JV means the same thing based on what part of the state you are from) or any level that is not varsity. Again like I said there are some exceptions, but I have not worked a varsity game with 2 officials on purpose for some years now.

I wasn't aware of any schools in CO that used two until December when there were only two varsity guys following my JV double header. Smaller charter school in town. I guess they need that extra $33 per game.
