sports
Spaces intended for athletic performance, training, practice, exercise, or recreational sport, subject to the amenity exclusions.
Sports usages apply to spaces for athletic activities, including performances for an audience, training, practice, exercise, recreational sports, and casual athletic activities.
Not included are amenity areas such as exercise rooms in hotels and apartment buildings. A school gymnasium is counted when it occupies a distinct structure, but not when it forms a part of a regular classroom building.
Competition and an audience are not required for every sports use: practice, exercise, and casual athletic activity are included. The distinction from a subordinate amenity remains, including the stated rule for gymnasiums within school classroom buildings.
