so CSL players get paid?

do they..?

on a per game basis, depends upon how good you are, you might get $50 to $75 per game

my reporters make more per game than most players lol

me and Robin found out from Toronto Croatia management that they have a budget of about $90,000 for wages this season.

For an away win their players get $250, practice $25 and not sure about the others.

All we know if that Trois Rivieres pays the most (Saputo money after all) and then it is CRO and SER that pay out the next amount.

Interesting is the comments that if TFC Academy sticks it out a major sponsor could soon be on board and that the whole league (more like Cary and Co.) will see an increase in wages lol

(cut from my game report in another post)...

I was talking to message board poster Kris Fernandes during the game about his trip to the Euros last month. After the game the question was raised about this league (most popular message board question about the CSL) “How much do you think these players get paid?” Just then an official from Toronto Croatia came by and answered. Trois-Rivieres Attak pays the best because the players are under contract with their parent team USL Montreal Impact. After that Toronto Croatia and Serbian White Eagles are the best. For Croatia the team budget for this year is $90,000. The incentives I caught were $250 for a road win, $75 for a tie, and $25 each practice. . There’s enough in the budget to have signed a 28 year old player who plays in the 1st division Croatian league just in time to get in a few practices and a possibly a game before their showdown with Serbian White Eagles the end of next week. They are looking forward to the TFC Academy staying in the league as there’s a rumor that a high profile sponsor is coming in to sponsor the league and that means there would be more money for player budgets for every team. (It sounded like this would be one of the TFC sponsors not some smaller one like Locus and Inev????[can’t think of this year’s sponsor although I was staring at the spare balls tonight] who just supply the league soccer balls). From what I’ve heard over the years, some of the teams are amateur.
