Semi-professional

A semi-professional athlete is one who is paid money to play and thus is not an amateur, but for whom sport is not a full-time occupation, generally because the level of pay is too low to make a reasonable living based solely upon that source, thus making the athlete not a full professional athlete.

United Kingdom

In the United Kingdom there are many semi-professional football teams at non-league level.
