I umped Little League (specifically, ages 10-14) for 4 years as a teen when I lived in Canada. Fun times. Good way to really learn the game, appreciate it in a different way, and improve your focus and power of observation.
As for pay scale, it was pretty meager. Something like $10 per game for the youngest ages (they called it "kid pitch"), maybe $12 per game for minors (usually 11 y.o.), $14 per game for majors (usually 12 y.o.), and around $17-$20 per game for Juniors (13 and 14 y.o.) I think. Of course, that was 7 years ago. Our seasons (not including rep teams, all stars, regionals/provincials/nationals, etc) were April thru June.
