I know some pretty dedicated players that attend skirmish, Cqb and Mil Sim events so I was wondering do people consider it a sport.

For instance Airsoft usually consists of two teams, a marshall or ref, rules, sometimes points or objectives to complete and usually the outcome produces a winner.

Thoughts?

A sport = an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment.

So yes, airsoft is definitely a sport

Considering the definition for sport is:


an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment.


I'd say there is no real way to not.

Absolutely. Especially if you're doing it competively and with a team, etc. not just as a hobby.
