Sport psychologists work in a number of settings including: university/college academic departments, counseling centers, sports medicine clinics, private practice, and health and wellness centers within hospitals or other worksites. Some sport psychologists also consult with business and industry. Information about four common career tracks for sport psychologists can be found on the APA Division 47 web page.
