    We have a huge league and we pay $0.75 per bowler per week to secretary. 38 5-person rosters equates to $5272.50 for our 37 week league. For the past several years, our secretary did not bowl and only sat in the settee area and collected the pay envelopes. He has since retired from these duties and a lady who does bowl in the league performs these duties.

    Started a new league last night with 58 teams with 4 bowlers each, same pay $0.75 per bowler is over $6400.00 for the year. Not a bad side gig at all if you ask me.

    Holy crap.

    Now why wouldn’t I do that 7 days a week, and retire?

    Are you only the Sec. or treasurer also? Together would be $14 I do both for $13.2. We only bowl 33 weeks. Hardly any leagues at our center bowl more than 33 weeks. Start after labor day and end in April.

    That is an awful lot in my opinion. Does that also include the Treas. job? If not you are getting robbed.

    That still sounds very excessive. Do they do anything more than just preparing and printing the sheets? I am charged $150 per year for using the centers printers, paper and recap sheets. I do everything at home and bring the finished product in and print it on their printer. They use an old fashioned printer for recaps it has a white copy then two copies one yellow and blue. White goes to the sec. the other 2 go to the captains.

    Don't know. Guess it's different in each area.

    It’s a holdover from the days of paper scoring, and manual accounting. We have spreadsheets for all that now.

    No need whatsoever to pay that much.

    A few years back on the mens league I was on, The secretary/treasurer while he bowled on this particular league. He was secretary/treasurer on some other leagues that he did not bowl on.

    He was really well organized for the organizational meets, First night, payoffs, he even got personally bonded.

    He'd have packets ready containing copies of the leagues rules, USbc manuals (back when they still had them), Check list of everything you needed to do on first night, who to makes the checks out too, the forms that needed to be filled out, pay envelopes etc. Ballots to vote on stuff when needed.

    Payoffs every team got a packet with standing sheets, sheets for each players with their games shot, averages plus the team record for the season. Team payoff monies had the exact bills and change needed to pay each team member without you having to get change.

    He kept good minutes, had the latest software. he was worth every penny of the sec./tea. fee he got.

    A lot of people think the sec./trea. doesn't need to get paid, software does everything these days.

    Well your wrong, there is more to being a sec./trea. than just punching numbers in on a laptop and printing a few sheets of paper. If you really think it's easy, next time your league is look for one, volunteer to do the job and do it for nothing and find out.

    Sounds like 2 hours of typical office work, to be honest.
