2010 Mileage Fees

There is now a mileage rate of $0.55 (that's 55 cents) calculated from your house to the site, and back. Our wonderful ADs have said that they will pay for 2 cars, and 1 rider fee (assuming that rare third referee). The rider fee is $10.

To aid the folks that do our checks (this is an incredible amount of work for them), go to maps.google.com, calculate the distance from your home to the playing field. Double it when you write the mileage on the form, and attach a COPY of the website calculation to the form. This will save the folks that do the checks a lot of time.

Mileage Reimbursement - How to decide which referee gets which fee?

When referees are sent to officiate a match, the schools have agreed to pay mileage reimbursements for 2 officials, portal to portal (home address to game site to home address), at the in force UIL mileage rate, plus one rider fee of $10.00. if there are three officials, an official may elect to take the rider fee instead of the mileage reimbursement. The referee crew is encouraged to discuss amongst themselves and determine which member will take the rider fee and indicate that on the sign-in sheet. If the crew cannot come to an agreement, the HSSOA President will mediate.

Mileage fees will be paid to those two referees who have traveled the farthest and the rider fee will be paid to the official living closest to the venue.
Any official who lives less than 18.25 miles from the venue should put in for the rider fee.
