This makes sense to me, but I would change the name to something a bit  
more specific like "recreational sportsperson". The term amateur can  
refer to any athlete that isn't paid to play, which includes serious  
college athletes and most olympians. On that note, we may want to have  
an "amateur athlete" for this group of athletes as well.
