Sport
Sport (
UK) or
sports (
US) are all forms of usually
competitive physical activity or
games which, through casual or organised participation, aim to use, maintain or improve physical ability and skills while providing
entertainment to participants, and in some cases, spectators. Usually the contest or game is between two sides, each attempting to exceed the other. Some sports allow a tie game; others provide
tie-breaking methods, to ensure one winner and one loser. A number of such two-sided contests may be arranged in a
tournament producing a
champion. Many
sports leagues make an annual champion by arranging games in a regular
sports season, followed in some cases by
playoffs. Hundreds of sports exist, from those between single contestants, through to those with hundreds of simultaneous participants, either in
teams or competing as individuals. In certain sports such as
racing, many contestants may compete, each against all with one winner.
