Pro salaries

[n1devil]

Hey guys !

Apologize my ignorance on this issue, but what´s the average income of a pro US inline hockey player ? Or minimum / maximum nowadays ?

Thanks for viewing and thanks in advance to the ones kind to shed some light on this.

I think most players make between 20,000 and 30,000 a year from other jobs. (not hockey)

you mean to say "Pro" is just a class? No professional inline hockey in the US? Nobody gets paid to play is that it ? No wonder the moment ice hockey clubs get interested, players jump the fence! Anyways, thanks Wingman

you guys can survive down there on 20-30k a year?

I was kinda just guessing at it, but I think a decent amount of the players make around 20k-30k.

So I guess I gotta get a job to play on your side of the world, uh ?
Anybody needs a multimedia designer ? lol

im guessing it's way more, i'm a teacher and we are bottom of the barrel when it comes to salary up here and most teachers start in the mid to upper 40's here ... but if you are talking about college kids, then that is a decent amount

At the moment there is no such thing as professional Inline Hockey in the United States. All we have at the moment are a couple of leagues aspiring to be professional. PIHA currently dosnt have plans of becoming a pro league in the near future while MLRH appears to be heading in that direction next summer. Many believe these two leagues house some players who could play for a professional league if one were to ever exist again.

I don't think teachers are on the "bottom of the barrel" down here. But I could be wrong...

I've looked into it they definitely are ... unless you count social workers, because they do not get paid nearly close to what they should...

Amen to that. Currently a 1st grade teacher. Teaching them to read, write, do math, and act like responsible human beings. Is there a more important job, especially since the parents have stopped doing these things?

[Wingman]

Well... like I said, I was kinda just guessing at it.

Teachers are underpaid.

Not dogpiling on Wingman... I'm just sayin

[n1devil]

Thanks TUlaw...

[Wingman]

Yeah, thanks for the dogpiling you guys.
