Umpire Game Fees

[MA Softball Ump]

I know that we do not do this for the money, but I was just wondering what the game fees are for the different areas around the country.

Here, NFHS fees are
Varsity $62.00/ump/2 or $93.00 1 ump (always 2 umps)
JV & Frosh $41.00/ump/2 or $61.50 1 ump (always 1 ump)

ASA (2005 Schedule)
Adult FP $32.00/ump/2
Adult Modified $31.00/ump/2 ($33.00 2006) $50.00 1 ump
Adult SP $26.00/ump/2 $30.00 1 ump
JO FP $28.00/ump/2 w/time limit (1:45)*
$30.00/ump/2 w/o time limit
$30.00 1 ump w/time limit*
$40.00 1 ump w/o time limit
*JO FP Tournaments 18U - 10U $30.00 - $35.00/game depending on the tournament.

I have heard that these are excellent game fee schedules. How does this compare with everywhere else?

I don't do it for the money, but on the other hand would I do it for free? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

Anyway, here in Anchorage, AK we get something like..

NHFS Varsity $28.00 per game (no new inning after 1:45)
NHFS JV or ASA FP JO $25.00 per game (1:30 limit)

ASA Mens, Womens, Coed SP $18.00 per game (1:00 limit on most league games, 1:10 on most tournament games, no limit on tourny championship and "if" games.)

Above all assume 2-man mechanics, 1-man fees are 1.5 times 2-man rates.

Triad NC
HS Varsity 52.00
HS JV 42.00

[bkbjones]

Here we pay $50 for NFHS V, about $43 for JV (one man on JV).

CC ball is about $60, and is almost always a DH, so about $120, all two umpire mechanics.

ASA tourney ball is $24 per with 2-umpire mechanics, championship play is $20.

Game fees for NFHS include the actual fee plus some travel...the travel is spread out some so we all get a piece of the pie. If I go to some place 25 miles away (actually 25 from my work, but 50 miles from there to my house afterwards) I don't get extra travel, but some games are three miles away, so it all evens out.

Skahtboi, I am surprised TX hasn't gone up some on HS stuff, but I suppose there is a reason. TASO is a good org ...
