Not sure where you get your sums from, but the one femal pro I know is closer to $150k.

Three New Zealanders are scattered across the NWSL, and one of them, Rosie White, had to switch teams after her club folded. The salary levels aren’t amazing either – a minimum pay over the season of $15,000 USD, out of a $350,000 total salary cap. And it’s not much better in Europe either, where an average salary is about $30,000 a year.

The article isn't written very well - they might mean the latter figure to be in $US, in which case it's still less than A-League minimum wage.
