Not possible at this time to make enough money to live on from prize money. Most of the professional players that make a living a paintball not only play for top teams, but work for the companies that sponsor their team.
My guess is it's the total $ amount that will be paid out in that division across all the teams that win a prize. However, if I'm right, someone needs to work on their proof reading / math skills over at NPPL.

pros make money (if they make money) mainly from there sponsorship and team owners. Prize packages are like bonuses

Sir, I must ask. Do you play psp or nppl events? Not busting your balls (to much). I'm just curious. You've taken a lot of flack the last few weeks for something I'm not sure you have much skin in. No need to tell me team or anything. Just say psp or nppl and I will let the matter drop.
