There is no limit of how long a player can play; however if his or her contract expires and they do not get it renewed, they are either done playing or play with the team with no money and at the same time look to play for another team.

Life expectancy of athletes: There seems to have been only one

detailed study on this topic, which was published by a group from

Finland in 1993:

The study found the following life expectancies, when world class

athletes were compared with each other and a reference group of

non-athletes "The mean LE adjusted for occupational group, marital

status, and the age at entry to the cohort (and its 95% confidence

limits) was in endurance sports (long distance running and

cross-country skiing) 75.6 (73.6, 77.5) yr; in team games (soccer, ice

hockey, Basketball, as well as jumpers and short-distance runners from

Track and Field (73.9 (72.7, 75.1) yr; in power sports (boxing,

Wrestling, weight lifting, and throwers from field athletics) 71.5

(70.4, 72.2) yr; and in the reference group 69.9 (69.0, 70.9) yr." The

increase in life expectancy found in athletes was mainly due to

decreased cardiovascular mortality and participation in team sports.
