A FIFPRO poll reveals that despite the record prize money at the 2023 Women's World Cup, one-third of the players earn less than $30,000 a year from their national teams and clubs combined. Additionally, one in five players supplement their income with a second job. The survey also highlights concerns regarding player welfare, with many players feeling they did not have enough rest before the tournament and insufficient post-tournament rest.
