And I disagreed.

The club=sport with sport=* details what sport the club is interested 
in. Many football club members don't play the sport but attend the club 
house and possible a game or two as spectators.

And then there is shop=sport with sport=* ...

The alternative is to have 'shop= the many sports' and 'club= the many 
sports' if that is preferred then why use the sport key at all, 
leisure=pitch, 'pitch= the many sports'.

Far easier to use the key sport=* for pitch/track/club and shop.
