Some of the higher-paid non-athletic sports jobs are TV Broadcasters, sports doctors, trainers and coaches. How much these jobs pay depend on the sport, the team, the location and level of the sport with professional sports having some of the highest paid jobs.
Sport doctors are very important for not only professional athletes, but also those that take place in physical activities. Certified Athletic Trainers (ATC) are responsible for the care and prevention of athletic injuries.

Almost every modality available to physiotherapists is also used by athletic therapists (aka athletic trainers, sports therapists, sports trainers, biokineticists).
The annual income of athletic therapists (also knows as sports therapists, athletic trainers or biokineticists) varies greatly, depending on the type of practice they have and where they practice athletic therapy. The annual income ranges from $42,000 to $78,000. It is lower for employed athletic therapists and higher for those who are self employed and open their own private athletic therapy clinics.
