The gamers of today will be the businessman of tomorrow and then hopefully we can start to set things up for a bright future for our gaming population.

I'm sure the time is not too far away, when gaming will be played at the Olympics.

But as you quoted from freedictionary, sport is a "physical activity". I suppose this is why it falls under Mind Sports South Africa. Awesome stuff Trevor :) The whole team-based aspect of gaming certainly makes it sportlike. But as you quoted from freedictionary, sport is a “physical activity”.

I think some gamers put in far more effort and energy than plenty sports people. I wouldnt go as far as to call it a "sport", thats why they invented the word eSport. :D I do agree with the aspects of gaming being sportlike for sure.
