It's not a widely accepted sport. Why aren't scuba diving or handball used for scholarships?

Here's the definition of sport.

sport    ( P ) Pronunciation Key (spôrt, sprt)
n.

Physical activity that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often engaged in competitively.

It just isn't popular enough. Also, you need to work on your typing. I wouldn't give you a scholarship/passing grade if you wrote and spelled like that.
