I plan on becoming a police officer. With lots of shift work and complicated scheduling, I plan on joining a Men's Division 1 soccer team that has 1 game a week and maybe a practice depending on field space and if the team is available to do so or not. I plan on working out when I can as well.

I believe this program specifically is just based in Saskatchewan unfortunately. I do think that there should be more of these programs all over Canada to bring kids together and have fun while being active.

This organization creates a fun environment for all kids to play. Nothing is competitive and all is fun and games. Brings kids together to try and focus on learning new skills but also making physical activity fun. sportball.com/location/spo...

Good point!

Exactly. Say you are keeping score in this pick up game of soccer. That's when I would consider it a sport rather than leisure as there is some sort of structure and end result you are trying to achieve.

I would define a sport by how it needs some sort of competition or goal to reach. A physcial motion that exerts energy. Now if you are going to a park with friends and playing a pick up game of soccer, I believe that is sport as you are trying to beat the other team.
