Fees, expenses & accommodation
Recommended minimum fees and travel expenses for SASDA adjudicators, and what they prefer when staying over for a festival.
Fees & expenses
Per 3-play district session
Per 3-play division session. Scottish Finals fees to be notified.
Flat rate for car travel, as of October 2023
Payment
Adjudicators would appreciate payment of festival fees and expenses on the final night or within seven days of the festival’s end.
Similarly, where travelling expenses are involved, please make clear in advance the costs a committee is prepared to pay.
Accommodation
Hotel accommodation is preferred
Members have expressed the feeling that ‘hotel’ accommodation of a good standard is always preferable to ‘private hospitality’.
Whilst it is appreciated that the latter can be of a very high standard, the loss of anonymity and working facilities can be a drawback.
Irish festivals
Irish Festival Secretaries are reminded that if an S.A.S.D.A. member is already committed to another Irish festival prior to or after your own festival, then the travelling expenses can be significantly lightened.
