Sports
A sport is any activity that is characterized by having a physical or driving requirement, be institutionalized (federations, clubs), to require competition with oneself or with others and have a clearly defined set of rules.
The sport term normally refers to activities where the physical capacity of the competitor is the primary way to determine the outcome (winning or losing), so also is used to include other external skills not related to the physical ones are critical factors, such as mental acuity or equipment. Such is the case, for example, mental sports or motor sports.
Sports are entertainment for the user as to who sees it.
Although often confused the terms sport and physical activity really does not mean exactly the same. The difference lies in the competitive nature of the first, against the mere practice of the second.
