Tennessee high school basketball referees will receive a $25 pay cut for each night they officiate games until the end of the regular season.The decision was made by the TSSAA because of Gov. Bill Lee’s executive order that restricted the number of fans permitted to attend high school basketball games.The TSSAA announced the decision to principals, athletic directors, coaches and referee supervisors last month. The pay decrease began Monday.
Three-person crews that work a varsity doubleheader will receive $80 per official. A single varsity basketball game will pay $50 to each of the three officials. Previously, referees were paid $105 for three-person crews for a varsity doubleheader and $75 for a single game.
