What do you consider sports?

What do you consider sports? Would you consider skateboarding a sport or a hobby? Would you consider horseback-riding a fun activity? What are your opinions?

Sports are basically everything really. Once you get more then 1 person invloved, I consider it a sport anyways. Look at Billards or Tennis.

A sport is generally something that has National Governing Body and that has regular National and International Competitions. I don't consider Dance and Cheerleading as a Sport but some people do -~-

I always see a sport as a odd term...

Its kind of like your question really, what makes a sport?

See in other countries parkour is known as a sport however in the u.s it isn't..

Skateboarding is often called a extreme sport or extreme hobby.

I myself though find a sport is something that makes you learn,practice,and study to perfect whatever you are trying to do.

I hope that made sense <.<.

Something with a governing body where you directly play against an opponent or team requires coordination and physical fitness to achieve

A but see there is a pr0oblem.

That is a team sport.

There are sorts that do not require teams 😉.

Just to mention a few boxing,biking,and skateboarding are all sports that do not need a team.

[Midnight]

A sport is a focused activity that uses movement to win or loose a game

A game or race that takes skill/strength to win.

Sport is introduced in many levels, BUT, at the end of the day a sport is to be active, that means moving some part of your body to achieve the task that is asked of you.

In which case, picking up a cup and putting it back down can be a sport as long as they called it 'the up and down cup championships' or something.

Darts is a sport, Football, Cricket, Tennis, Weight Lifting, Horse Back Riding, Rolling down a hill with some Cheese.. you name it, it's a sport.

They are catagorised into Sports and Hobbies by the people that actually take part, Darts is considered a sport now, but when less people were doing it, it was called a hobby.

Same with anything really, the more people do it, and the more money made from something it then becomes a sport.

It's all commercial these days.

I would say something that involves physical activity is a sport.
