On average American soccer coaches are earning $37,891 annually (about $730 per week) according to Glassdoor, which is the website Gary mentioned (Glassdoor focuses on tracking salaries and although it doesn't always have a lot of data, it at least gives you a datapoint to draw from). That said, there's going to be a big difference between what you'll get at a university vs. what you'll get as a soccer coach at a high school or afterschool or summer program. Nonetheless, there are lots of jobs in and around the soccer industry (have you considered working for the league or doing sports therapy to help professional soccer athletes?). Here's a link to the right page on the Glassdoor website for more information about salaries: http://www.glassdoor.com/Salaries/us-soccer-coach-salary-SRCH_IL.0,2_IN1_KO3,15.htm

Majority of the soccer coaches I ok now are normal teachers and do the coaching job as extra pay. Average 39k plus bonus 3k-7k based on school size and school district.
