Hi, Rod. It is my understanding that since sports psychologists actually do counsel clients, that the preferred career path is to obtain clinical licensure first, then specialize. There is an APA Division for Sports Psychology, Div 47, and they have a lot of info at http://www.psyc.unt.edu/apadiv47/about_becomingsportpsych.html

What is the typical graduate training for students interested in this area? Are there specific masters or doctoral programs focusing in sports psychology? Or are there simply sports psychology concentrations in clinical psychology programs?
