Just curious what people are getting per game for Slow Pitch these days.

I live in Minnesota and I average about $22 a game. Usually I do 4 games a night 3 - 4 nights a week.

Sure, tell you how much umpires are paid in Delaware today and the next thing you know, there will be umpires moving in from all over the country. I would have more umpires than I would know what to do with......hey, wait a minute. That's a good thing!

Okay, we make $50 a game, three umpires with a 20 minute 4th inning stretch. No?

How about $40 a game, two umpires with a 5 minute 4th inning stretch?

Would you believe.......

Central NJ, $42 (cash on the spot) for co-ed business league, and $41 (check, later) for 40-and-over men. For church league doubleheaders, $60 (the 2 games are over in 2 hours). Typical township rec league $32 to $35. Some tournaments, $25 per game, but you get a lot of games.

Remember, much of this area considers themselves in the Metro NYC market and prices commodities and services accordingly. IOW, the rates are inflated compared to many other areas.

The best money around here is in FP, in what are called "friendlies," which have sprung up over the past few years. Strong travel teams spend a weekend playing round robins at some multi-field complex. These are simply exhibition games; there's no advancing toward a championship, and no one keeps won-lost records. Substitution is unlimited, except that you're supposed to keep the same batting order. Umps get $45 cash per (1-man) game, and there's an 80-minute time limit, so doing 4 or 5 games in a day isn't too hard.

Earlier this year I did a 2-hour, 10-inning scrimmage between two very strong 18u teams preparing for a tournament in the Midwest. The base ump and I each got paid $100 cash. At the pregame conference, both coaches even laughingly announced: "Don't worry, Blue, we're not even going to keep score, so there won't be any arguments."

Darrell,
Get that rate up before I move back down there (one more gray winter and we may be there). Heck, ASA championship play is now paying better than that...

azbigdawg Tue Jul 26, 2005 07:57pm

ni kidding...its a sad state of affairs...too many local organizations they need to stand up and stick with a higher rate instead of trying to cut each others throats

You better not leave us... if you do, I'm sending R.F., C.E., and T.M. to you! I'm sure Hatfield would approve...

Maryland - Girls FP $32 per game x 2 man crew

Omaha (Nebraska) Metro area varies a little for SP.

In Omaha, it's $16/umpire for 2-umpire, and $20/umpire for 1-umpire. In the Metro Open league (the top league in the area which is handled in Omaha), it's $18/umpire for 2-umpire, and $22/umpire for 1-umpire.

Go across the county line to LaVista, I know that they're getting $18/umpire for 2-umpire, and $20/umpire for 1-umpire.

Go across the river to Council Bluffs (Iowa), it's $15/umpire for 2-umpire, and $20/umpire for 1-umpire.

Those are the league fees. Tournament fees tend to be $17-18/umpire for 1-umpire and $16-18/umpire for 2-umpire, depending on the type of tournament, etc.
