The Sims 3 World Adventures Guide Essentials Careers
Professional Sports
The Professional Sports career charts a course from zero to hero. The Sims slowly become deeply involved with the local sports team. At first, they are a fan with a dream.
Then, they join the team and start working up the ranks. Soon, shifts are replaced by sporting events where winning and losing directly affect mood.
Work Location: Llama Memorial Stadium

Benefits and Rewards
Naturally, this is a great career for a Sim with the Athletic trait and developing the Athletic skill.
Once you reach the Toddler Sports Coach position, you can start using the Work Out at Gym work tone, which lets you continue developing the Athletic skill at work, albeit at a slower pace than at home or on personal time.
(Up until this promotion, reporting to work does not increase the Athletic skill.)
Once the Minor Leaguer position is reached, the Sim can begin interacting with other team members, which casts a wider net of Sims to socialize with and make friends.
The Rookie promotion starts the game part of the career. Now work is often replaced by practice and the career keeps a running tally of the team’s win-loss record.
The higher the Sim’s Athletic skill, the greater the chance of winning the game, which in turn improves the Sim’smood with the Winner moodlet. The chance of winning a game is also improved by the Prepare for Game tone.
Once the Sim reaches the top promotion— Sports Legend—two things happen. One, the Sim can now perform the Sponsorship Deal interaction at businesses for Simoleons at least once a week.
Two, the Sim can also Hold Autograph Sessions at venues where they are handsomely rewarded for signing autographs for as many Sims on the lot as possible.
