Have a look at prospectus.ac.uk - they usually have quite a bit of information on potential careers with certain degree subjects.

I was on prospects.ac.uk and it worked for me so I had a look this is what job options you have:
Fitness centre manager or Leisure/social club manager - manages all aspects of a centre, including recruiting staff, planning and organising client programmes, health and safety, and accounts.

Lifestyle consultant - usually self-employed in the private sector to devise fitness programmes and instruction to individuals. A similar role to a personal trainer.

Outdoor pursuits manager - manages a centre (sometimes residential) usually offering a wide range of activities to people from many different backgrounds eg children, disadvantaged groups, armed services and managers.

Sports administrator - involves planning and organising activities and events, administering funding, marketing, promotion and finance.

Sports coach/instructor - helps people participating in sport achieve their full potential. Often part-time or seasonal work. Qualifications are necessary.

Sports development officer - aims to encourage greater participation in sport throughout the community. The job may involve organising and promoting activities, coaching, and advising clubs on fund raising.

Sports therapist - prevents and treats injury, usually for professional sportspeople. Employment, normally part-time, is often found through contacts.

Sports psychologist - concerned with behaviour. They may be involved with preparing an athlete for competition, or increasing someone’s motivation to exercise. Many are employed as HE lecturers.

Health promotion specialist - develops and promotes initiatives to encourage people to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Employed by health care providers.
