But, for some reason, the commissioner receives a one-time $15-25 (not sure the amount) fee from each school before the season. Don't know what that fee is for. |

From the UIL (Texas' governing body for HS Sports):A(n) (officials) chapter that requests a service/assignor fee from schools will not be a chapter in
good standing... For the Texas officials doing sub varsity games who are upset about the assignor's fee, the recent change to the pay scale should soften some of the blow: 2 sub varsity games plus mileage = $92. One varsity game plus mileage = $67. |

That does not sound out of the question. Many associations in my area allow officials that are new to come to the group for free for the first year and observe. But after all your fees you will have to pay. A $125 can be made in one or two games (or dates) so I see that as very reasonable.

Unless you're doing Jr High, then it is $72 or $75 for two games depending on how far out the school is. But the assigning fee for a Jr High game was $1.50 vs $2.50 (or was it $3.00?) for a varsity game. I don't mind paying a fee for game assignments, but officials that work only subvarsity or cannot work may games end up paying a higher rate, which is what I don't care for. Varsity games are also underpaid in my opinion. ;) |

I'm pretty sure we don't pay assigning fees. I got the full amount in my checks that I was told I would get. Our assignor is also an official. Right now as I type this, all the area schools are in town for the officials draft. The schools pick two and the association assigns the third man to the crew for varsity games. The jv/hr. high games are assigned at the meetings we have.

Some officials call more than others, there are times when I can only do a date a week. While the fee is rather high, I just pay. Hey are you going to contract night? |

Yes, it's my second year. I did not attend a 3 whistle camp this summer so I don't believe I even qualify to work varsity games this year.
