AFL salaries are modest, with most players earning between $40,000 and $50,000 per season. The league minimum is $31,000, and the average salary, boosted by the contracts of a handful of franchise players who earn six figures, is $80,000. Most arena athletes hold non-football jobs during the offseason.

I used to train w a guy who played for the desperados. I think he made around 35k and they paid for his apartment and car.

We have intramural flag football leagues. One of the girls in our squadron was married to an AFL QB before the league went under.

He played for the LA Galaxy. Dude was legit.

He said they only made a couple hundred per game though and he absolutely hated the shite.
