Searching for the pro-tour....:S
Think I read somewhere, possibly in PGI that NXL players recieve $750 per game. Could be mistaken as it may have been tied up to what they could start to get paid if there is a TV contract in place and running.

when you say per game, do you mean literally game, or per tourny, cos $750 per game, in the milleniums, thats like 10 games+semis+finals:eek: :eek:

read it again dude, NXL. They play, what 4 games per event? Most they could possibly play would be 7 as there is only 8 teams in their entire league!!!

well actually they play 3 i think, 2 goups of 4. 3 games per team so £1350 per event. Its not bad for playing a game you love, but doesn't really square up to a pro footballer does it?

£100000 a week compared to 337.49 per week. oh and of course footballers get paid during the off season, NXL players don't.
