Can deaf people make a living through sport?

0

Yes, Deaf people can make a living through sport. However, this should be done in an inclusive setting where Deaf athletes compete against hearing athletes. For example, Terence Parkin, a well-known former Deaf swimmer made a living through Swimming, Andrew du Plooy, a well-known first Deaf professional soccer player made a living by playing for the now defunct Mother City FC that used to play in the Premier Soccer League, Moses Lepheane, a well-known Deaf road runner, makes a living through competing in road running.
