A valid sport is decided in one of three ways:
1) Measurement (time, weight, length, etc.)
2) Scoring based on actions, NOT judging (goals, points, etc.)
3) Achieving specific goals (eg. a KO in boxing, a pin in wrestling)
These _are_ sports (among many others):
- baseball
- hockey
- tennis
- rugby
- volleyball
- track and field
- swimming
- alpine and cross country skiing
- giant slalom (the ONLY snowboard event which is a sport)
- weightlifting
These are NOT sports:
- trampolining
- gymnastics
- dancing
- cheerleading
- bodybuilding
- diving
- synchronized swimming
- "hot dog" skiing and snowboarding

Nope. There are lots of physical activities which are not sports. Exercise routines are not sports, taking out the garbage ,etc.

If it does not involve a ball it's not a sport
