Wishful thinking… IMHO it is absolutely not a sport. Even if you are on a SOTA activation, the sport you are doing is hiking, not Ham radio. Contesting is not a sport either. All you do is sit on your behind.. All that is involved in Ham radio is moving your fingers and maybe lips a little.. I can't even start to understand how it could be even remotely called a sport.
