The salary of a professional lacrosse player can vary widely depending on the league and the player’s experience. In Major League Lacrosse (MLL), which has since merged with the Premier Lacrosse League (PLL), players typically earned between $7,000 to $25,000 per season.
In the PLL, which was founded in 2018 and operates under a different financial model, player salaries can range from around $10,000 for rookies to upwards of $35,000 or more for established stars, with some players potentially earning additional income through sponsorships and endorsements.
Overall, while lacrosse as a professional sport does not offer salaries on the same scale as sports like football or basketball, top players can supplement their income through various channels, including coaching, clinics, and personal appearances.
