2. Scrimmages

   Chapters shall be paid for scrimmages using the following fee schedule:

   Basketball

   $50

   (Fees are based on a three-hour scrimmage.)

   NOTE: After three hours, each additional hour is $25. The fees paid are regardless of the level of competition. The fee will be paid to the local chapter and not to the individual officials, to be used in place of assignment or service fees. A portion of these fees should be used for education, retention and recruitment of officials.

   Chapters that agree to provide officials and charge for scrimmages are under obligation to provide officials for the school for the entire season, grades 7-12.

   A chapter that requests a service/assignor fee from schools will not be a chapter in good standing and thus will not be eligible for post-season assignments.

3. Other sub-varsity sports and tournaments may not exceed listed fees for respective varsity sports. In game arrangements not listed above, schools and officials shall agree on a fee not to exceed listed fees for varsity sports.

4. Tournament Fees. Officials shall receive the set game fees for all tournament games in the following sports: Baseball, Basketball, Softball and Soccer.

5. Game Fees Review. Game fees and possible increases for officials will be reviewed every two years.

Mileage Reimbursement

1. Officials shall be paid travel reimbursement according to the metro or non-metro plan based on a crew.

   1. Metro - flat rate of travel reimbursement from the center point in chapter to game site. 20 mile radius = $12; 30 mile radius = $15; 40 mile radius = $18. Any school outside the 40 mile radius will revert to the non-metro mileage reimbursement for pay from that school.

      1. The UIL will determine the online mapping service to be used for the metro travel reimbursement plan by both officials and schools.

         (Please refer to the sports tab above for instructions regarding the Chapter Metro Plan Center Points)

   2. Non-metro - portal to portal officials shall be reimbursed one car 55 cents per mile, two cars 41 cents per mile, or three cars 33 cents per mile (A $10 riders fee will only be paid to officials exceeding three person crews).

2. Officials shall be paid based on the state mileage reimbursement rate in effect on August 1 of the current school year.

3. By prior agreement between officials and school authorities, airfare may be substituted for automobile mileage fee.

4. Each UIL chapter of each sport shall select the method of payment for travel reimbursement 30 days prior to the first contest.

Other Allowable Expenses

1. Meals. Schools shall not pay for any meals for officials unless the distance traveled round trip from the official’s home to the game site is greater than 150 miles. If meals are paid, the amount is $15 during the regular season and $30 during playoffs.

2. Lodging. By agreement by the officials and schools, schools may pay lodging.

3. Ground Transportation. If prior agreement exists, schools may pay taxi fare, etc., for officials.
