What is the definition of a sport?
An activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or
team competes against another or others for entertainment. The main argument
for why video games should be classed as a sport is that they are a mental
challenge, they take team work and practice to be able to compete on the level
of others. Even though the tasks are not physical which is the main argument
against it, they require a lot of personal/mental skills such as quick
thinking/reflexes, teamwork, concentration and many other mental skills.
However the main definition of a sport is that is it physical and many people feel
offended when something that is classed as a sport include minimum physical
activity.
