Bout Committee Pay?

[Phincer]

When my son was in HS, I learned to run fencing tournaments on 3X5 cards and then the computer. A)-it helped the club and B)-it kept me from bothering the kid. So now kiddo is in college and I'm still running the computer for local tournaments. Some are small, some are large. I volunteer my time for one veterans tournament, but for the most part, I get paid.

This year my USFA membership is UNAT, so I'm not really representing any one club when I do the computer for the BC.

I'd like to come up with a fee schedule, so that everyone knows that I don't charge Club A more than Club B. I've been paid any where from $50 per day to $125 per day. Prior to tournament day I spend anywhere from 3-5 hours prepping (downloading, checking membership status, etc.). After the tournament I hand all documents and records to the club owner and upload to FRED.

Do other clubs pay their BC? Hourly? By the event size?

Input, please.

Thanks!!!

It's similar to referee pay.

Different organizers pay differently. Each referee can choose to work for the offered pay or not and may reasonably make different decisions based on non-financial reasons, including the organizer, distance, non-fencing life issues (to the extent that a non-fencing life exists to present issues), schedule, particular tournament, personal value assigned for the time required, or whatever else he or she considers when determining whether or not to work an event.
