they do
Not as much as NBA players
they are paid 250,000 a game
The money they get paid with, usually comes from the club they play with.
I don't, professional players do.
Well it depends what sport you are talking about. Most professional sports players get paid between 1million and 2millions dollars per year.
It depends. Some players in the nfl are paid higher than the players in the mlb. Some players in the mlb are higher paid than players in the nfl. It all depends on the player.
I'm afraid that women rugby players do not get paid, therefore they are not professional as it seems they do not command a large enough audience. They are allowed to claim expenses but must do it for the love of the game & country.
Because they are professional players. And that's there jobs while unpaid players play for pride not money
NFL players are on salary, which is only partly based on whether they play in games. They are paid on a regular basis as well as with deferred (invested) annuities. The concept of paying professional players after games ended decades ago, although it is still practiced in some semi-professional leagues.
Professional softball players, of course, get paid. However, they do not earn nearly as much money as Major League Baseball players. The Olympic Team that will compete in Beijing this year does get paid, more than the professional softball players, but again, not as much as the average Major League Baseball player. For example, Jennie Finch drives a van, NOT a Ferrari.
The salary cap in professional softball keeps the range from $7000 to $17,000 per year.
