Cecily herself believed that Quidditch was the sort of career for gentlemen who had other sources of income, like investors or heirs. It wasn't the most practical profession for those who didn't have money to fall to if the worst happened, especially if they weren't Quidditch prodigies. Someone from the lower classes, with great talent, could make a name for himself and then be a sought after coach.
