Career opportunities in the sports industry aren’t limited to those with an athletic ability; there is a wide range of career paths for non-athletes too. You can work for a specific franchise in roles like marketing, analytics and accounting or support the team through scouting, coaching and management. There are also opportunities to produce content as a sideline reporter and beat writer, or provide mental and physical help as an athletic trainer. Many of these careers require travel as well as working nights, weekends and holidays.
