IS Scuba Diving a sport or just a recreation hobby ??

Please post your thoughts..... along with the poll

A lot of people said Golf is a sport as well as Nascar Racing is a sport. :confused:
 
According to Dictionary.com, definition #3, "sport" is defined as "An active pastime; recreation. "
 
Its a recreation. Bowling, Darts, Pool - all recreation.

Hockey, Basketball, Baseball, Football: sports

Soccer - not a sport, its a recreation.

If SCUBA is a sport, then NASCAR is a sport...and we all know that's not true. Its an equipment intensive recreation requiring specialized training.

And you get to turn right.

Imagine competitive diving. No matter how fun, diving is not a sport.

How is Football a sport, and soccer not a sport?
 
Can't a hobby be a sport and a sport a hobby?
 
NASCAR is a sport. A competitive sport. Thank you very much.
