Look at the descriptions on https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:sport


Some examples;

sport    bowls        A place where you can play lawn bowls/lawn bowling.

sport    kitesurfing        To mark a spot for kitesurfing

sport    multi        A sports facility that is suitable for more than 
one sport

sport    racquet        Racquetball facilities, such as racquetball courts

sport    scuba_diving        To mark a spot for scuba diving

sport    surfing        A spot for surfing.



These do not describe the 'sport'/activity but state it is a 
'place'/'spot' i.e. a physical thing.
