| 40-69 miles | $50/official/day |

Travel to Youth Games: Officials will be paid for mileage driven round trip from their home location to game sites at a rate of the current standard mileage rate set by the IRS: $0.67/mile as of 2/12/24.
*The Adult Site Manager on U8 and U10 games will not receive mileage. The Adult Site Manager is expected to oversee U8/U10 games happening concurrently on adjacent fields at a site to support the Junior Officials and step-in to handle questions and frustrations from coaches and parents. The pay rate is per game time slot and not per game/field.
To be negotiated by the Assigner.
Suggested minimum rate of $1.15/min/official (incl. half time).
Paid directly by the team to the official through ArbiterPay or Invoice.
During the 2024 Season, 19 of the 22 CTGHSLL member programs intend to pay officials through ArbiterPay. Antonian, St. Mary's Hall and Smithson Valley require officials to submit an invoice.
Payment is due to the official by the end of the month in which the game occurred. For late payments that are not received by the end of the month or within 20 days of the game date, officials are entitled to an additional $15 late fee. If you have not been paid for a game, please notify the Treasurer at treasurer@ctwloo.org immediately.
INVOICING: Officials need to complete the CTWLOO invoice and W9 before Antonian, St. Mary's Hall and Smithson Valley home games. Officals should bring a physical CTWLOO invoice and W9 with them to the game to hand to the home team's coaches or GDA before the game starts, and email a copy of the CTWLOO invoice and W9 to the home team's contacts. The CTWLOO Treasurer, Rachel Gozhansky, will try to email reminders to officials scheduled to work home games for these 3 teams 1-2 days before the game.
Canyon will issue payments through ArbiterPay, but the team requests officials complete and bring a printed invoice with them to Canyon home games to submit to the coach. The invoice is used to verify the name and identity of the officials who worked the game.
Paid by CTWLOO to the official via ArbiterPay by the 10th of the month after the month in which the game occurred.
