4 or 5 Man Crews

[camaulds]

Michigan

Varies in various parts of the State but here in Mid Michigan we get the following rates.

Varsity...All 5 Man...$45-$60 depending on the league.

JV & Frosh...Almost always 4 man ( there are a few 3 man hold outs)...$35

5th-8th grade...Played on Saturday and Sunday afternoons...$75 for a doubleheader.

For Varsity Playoffs the fee was $45 plus mileage...All crew members get mileage...This can be a raw deal if you volunteer to drive and the rest of the crew doesn't help out with gas. The later in the playoffs you go the further you usually have to travel. I did a semifinal this year and volunteered to drive my full size customized van for the crew to our game...250 miles round trip...Only one of the other crew members gave me anything for gas ($5)...We made approximatly $40 each for mileage...If I ever work with those guys again I'll have an understanding up front or I'll ride in the back of their van...LOL.
