Downstate Illinois (you know, the area the areas south of Chicago). ;)

$50-75 for a single varsity game (5-man crews)
$80-120 for a double-header (Soph plays before Varsity, 5-man)
$40-60 for an underclassman game. (mostly 4-man crews)
$35-50 per game for multiple a peewee/Jr High games (3 to 5 man depending upon the league).

55-65 for varsity (5-man)
45-50 for JV and freshmen. (some schools are using 5 man most are 4)

We've also been going to some JV games and taking a 5th official for training purposes then splitting the $200 fee between five instead of 4.

I'm not really sure.

It's been that way since I have been officiating. I guess because the whitehat theoretically has more headaches.

It used to be $5 and it was raised to $15 a couple of years ago when we all got raises.

Downstate IL - anything south of I-80 and west of I-39. :)

Colorado:
$55 for varsity (5 crew)
$41 for sub-varsity (unfortunately both freshman and JV play 12 minute qrtrs unless we can talk them into 10 min..which doesn't happen very often). Our association works 5 man crew in sub varsity as well for training and allowing younger officials more games.

I'm for the $15 white hat bonus!!

We had a game this year where one of our officials was accidentally listed as a security guard rather than an official. His check was $125 rather than $65. We told our referee that we would be missing a few games later in the season because we were going to try to get hired as security guards at this school.

70-79 $55
80-89 $65
90-100 $75

Referees get an additional $15 on top of their fee.

(In New Orleans), we also get $5 for local travel and $1.10/mile (one-way) for non-local travel (1 vehicle).

For playoff games they add $10 to each official's pay.

Sub-varsity (3 or 4-man crew), we get $35.

Clock operators get $40.

In Tennessee, each of the five officials makes $85. The ECO gets $65. No travel dollars.

Middle school games pay $60. Youth games pay $35, though I don't know if that's true all across the state.

In South Central Nebraska, most schools pay by the crew...

Varsity games range from 325 to 400. Mostly 5 man crews a couple of 6s and even 1 or 2 4s. One crew I was on divided the usual 325 and paid 60 a person and then the driver got the extra. The crew I'm on now just divides it out evenly and we all take turns driving.

JV games 160-200. Mostly 4 man crews.

JH games 120-150. Mostly 3 man crews.

PW games 100-120. Usually 3 sometimes 2 or 4.

Tennessee pays well for football and lousy for every other sport.

When I worked there in 1994, I made as much for a varsity game then as I do now in WI. Their ECOs make as much as we make for working the game.

From what I understand, Houston negotiated some flat fees for sub-varsity, TAPPs games, ECOs, etc. Don't know the exact details though.

That is correct for subvarsity the breakdown is the following

TAPPS
12 min quarters $55 no mileage
10 min quaters $50 no mileage
8 min quarters $45 no mileage

Games
8 min quaters $30 two officials get mileage other gets $10
10 min quarters $40 two officials get mileage other gets $10
12 min quarters $45 two officials get mileage other gets $10

Yeah some of you guys are making bank in other states.
