Now that the NFHS has decided to go more in line with USAV/NCAA rules, a discussion has begun among our local high school officials. Most areas of Pa. use a best 2 out of 3 format for their matches. The new guidelines call for a best 3 of 5. Many officials feel their officiating fees should increase since we will be officiating more games per match.
I was just wondering how states which used the experimental rules this past season addressed this issue. Did fees increase in states or regions which went to 3/5 from 2/3? If so, how much of an increase? Most officials I have discussed this issue with, think it should be about a 25% to 33% increase. I suspect that few AD's are even aware of the new rules and are going to be blindsided by a request for more money by officials.
