Referee Fees

Every game you do, you will receive a game fee to compensate you for your work as an AHSAA official. This is done via GBSOA’s Treasurer.

Fees for GBSOA, assignor and treasurer are taken out and the numbers at the bottom are what will be what you get along with $15 travel stipend split up among the crew.

Contest Fees

Contest TypeCenter RefereeAssistant Referee
Varsity$80$70
Junior Varsity$75$65
Junior High (Middle School)$65$55

If a dual takes place, both referees will receive the same amount as if they were the referee. For example, if it was a JV dual, both referees would receive $75.

Site Fees

In addition to contest fees, every referee will get $30 per site per day split amongst the crew. If it’s a 3-person-crew, you will each get $10. If it’s a dual, you both get $15. Per site means for every site, so if you go to one site in the morning and another site in the evening, you will get $30 at the first site and $30 at the second site.

For example…

You are assigned two matches, on a Monday, with a three-person crew. Automatically, you all get $10 as travel pay.

RoleFeeTime
Junior Varsity (Referee)$755:30pm
Varsity (Assistant Referee)$707:00pm

For that day’s fees, you will receive a grand total of $155 hitting your Dragonfly account. Remember, that’s just a Monday! Games are assigned Monday through Saturday.

Getting paid

Per our GBSOA Treasurer, you will receive money in your account every 2 weeks via Dragonfly. Only Pelham and Leeds will pay you directly and it will NOT be as quick. Allow a few weeks for the Pelham/Leeds contest fees to come through.
