Well, it really depends on what kind of setting you wish to work in. If you think you would like to work in a clinical setting, then get your PT degree. You can still work with athletic people in a clinical setting as a PT, but you will have to work with people of various backgrounds and ages. Depending on what your state statutes allow, you may be able to work in a clinic as an ATC and work with athletic people. So, basically, if you solely want to work with athletes, then get your ATC.
