Spanish term or phrase: "deportes federados"
This is from a title to a document about different sport uses in Spain on certain plots of land.
Not sure what the term is in English
Richard Walker
professional sports
Explanation:
Confronted with "deportes amateurs". That's what it means in Argentina. For example, when I was young, I used to practice "long jump" and I was "federada" by the FAM (Federación Atlética Metropolitana). That means I was not an amateur. I guess that's the difference, but I'll ask my sister, who is Sports Editor in the Buenos Aires Herald, an American paper in Argentina. She will know for sure.

My sister was off last night, but I asked someone else in the sports section and they suggested \"registered sports\" since they say that \"professional sports\", as I suggested, was probably going to be associated to getting money for playing, and being federado doesn\'t necessarily mean that you are paid... I hope it helps.

I think its more "association sports" or "associated sports". Federated is too American. I should have stipulated that in my question. Many apologies
