The clubhouse manager is paid through clubhouse dues that each player must pay every two weeks.  The fee is $25.  With 25 players, every two weeks the clubhouse manager will make $625 cash.  The clubhouse manager is an employee of the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers and works directly for the team.  The Seattle Mariners pay the clubhouse manager a total of $15 per game to be used on food for the players (bread, PB & J, fruit), shaving cream, razors, and other hygiene products.
