“Sport consists of the physical and cultural elements of active movement. Physical elements of sport include varied activities and competition that require some degree of skill and physicality. Cultural elements include the production and circulation of meanings associated with participating and consuming sport. Sporting practices can be informal and formal, ranging from pickup sport games in local parks to participation in elite competitive leagues.”
