sports
An organized team, company, or other group involved in athletic training, competition, or exercise.
A sports organization is any organized group involved in athletic activities, including training, contests, and exercise.
The organization can train athletes or arrange exercise without entering competitions. Competitive teams are a more specific kind of sports organization.
A sports team connected to a structure has a regular home-venue relationship. The broader sports role does not by itself establish that contract or venue arrangement.
