If pitch means any facility for any sport we wouldn’t have track or swimming_pool, the meaning of words is not completely dispensable. I agree it makes sense to have generic tags with broad meaning and specific detail can be added, but that doesn’t mean we have to squeeze _everything_ into one tag, sometimes it is more appropriate to use a different tag if things are different, or it gets the smell of tagging for the renderer. Similarly, not every place where several pitches are together is a sports centre, it could also be a school or a beach_resort for example.
