Umpire Fees
We have a tournament director in our area, Southern Indiana, that is starting to run tournaments where the elite teams play a full 7 inning game with no time limit. He has been paying $50/game to the umpires.
Do you have tournaments in your area that do this? If so, what are they paying the umpires? |

In So Call TCS pay for 7 innings or 1:45 is $60
Friendlies can pay as high as $70 for 7 inning game.

I rarely work any tournaments in the summer other than under USA Softball. And I typically receive $40 per game for those. The vast majority of those games are time-limited until we get to the final, and even then we often play with a clock.
I have also worked some college showcases where the organizers pay between $35 and $45 per game. Those are typically 65 to 80 minute contests, finish the batter. I cannot recall ever getting $50 or more for travel ball.
