$$$$

Looking back at last season's schedule, I had 8 games that were over 140+ miles roundtrip. I accepted that... last season was my first year getting varsity games, so as the "new guy", I'm going to end up traveling a bit more than most.

I don't know how many I'll have this season (our assigner hasn't published our schedules yet). I'm hoping for a bit less travel, but I'm still in the "take whatever varsity assignments I can get" stage.

Pay was $73-78 for a single varsity game, and $108-113 for a JV/Varsity doubleheader. If working three-person, pay is about $5 less per game. No mileage. Single $55 payment for dues to the association for assignments. I think we might be getting a $1/game raise this year.

I worked with a couple of partners more than once, but most of the time I was working with a different partner or partners every night. Fine by me, I wanted to work with as many different folks as I could, hopefully I made a good impression on most of them.
