the proposal this thread was started for reads amenity=gym:

no one was talking of different leisure tags...

the same would be possible for the key sport.
every element containing the key sport could be drawn with a generic 
sport-icon, if the renderer is not interested in further specification.

a sports centre for me is a place, where multiple sports facilites are 
combined in a building or area, and not every gym/tennis hall/whatever is 
built in this way.
so if something is not a sports centre it should not be tagged as such.
if your "logic" says to do this anyhow, this is simple wrong.
