I have a curious question for our DII promotees... how much is the promotion bonus these days? I received $400K for winning the league(which seems low) and I thought the promotion bonus was substantially more money. Or do all league winners get a payout(NBBA, DII, DIII, etc.) and the promotion bonus is something separate?

Promotion bonus for winning D2 is $1 mil. There is no promotion bonus for winning the NBBA since promoting is no longer possible when in the NBBA.

Yeah, $1.5M is about enough to get one contributing player under 32 or maybe one starter over 32. It's a rough out there right now.

Muchas gracias hombres!

So I guess the $400K i received falls into a different category? BB charity perhaps?

It may settle down but that is what I am seeing right now. If you want a starter under 27, I wish you luck.

Your $400K is the prize money for winning the Finals. The loser gets a smaller prize. This replaces the 3rd game income and a mean to deter people from throwing game just to have a third game. I got $250k for winning II.4. I'm not sure if the prize money is the same for all dII leagues.

And I agree 100% with all of the previous posts about the $1.5M promotion bonus. Not enough to help a team compete at this level. At least we still have the attendance boost to fall back on. The 5th promoted team is in even worst situation without the attendance boost.

Thanks. I can see the purpose for the $400K now and that makes a whole lot more sense.
