I have come up with
leisure=exercise?
exercise=cricket_nets description: A fenced area where cricket batting and
bowling can be practiced.
And then there can be other 'exercise'
exercise=exercise_station example: small areas set aside in parks with
features to provide specific exercises. Usually free.
exercise=fitness_center example:An establishment with machines to improve
physical fitness. Usually for a fee.
And so on ..
Or ?
leisure=practice_pitch ?
sport=cricket, basketball etc ... this would indicate it is a
practice pitch .. and that the full sport is played elsewhere.
This is more restrictive, not covering exercise stations etc.
umm how about leisure:practice=* that would do track and pitch and could still
use sport=

Batting cages, putting greens, driving ranges, Pitching cages (usually behind a

in my mapping and faces similar issues.
There must be some way of saying this object is for practice, and then Identify
the sport.
In places with horse racing (San Diego, CA and Narita, Japan), the surrounding
region is usually full of horse ranches. Their horse stables often have small
ovals around the grazing fields and horsewalkers to practice running the horses
- but it is nota private racetrack - so I really hesitated to tag track on it
(I put a circular pitch + sport=[horse something] on it). The oval is just for
running them, not actually racing them (no other horses are there to race), nor
is the facility meant for racing - it is a training facility for the horses to
be ready for visiting the actual racetrack.
Similar to a pitchers mound behind the stadium, a basketball hoop on a tree in
the park, or a batting cage, It replicates part of the sport for the means of
practice. We should have a generic tag for that, or a bunch of explicit tags to
put on each type of facility/object.
Some are lucky - golf=* has a ton of documented values, so it is easy to put
specific values under - but others may not.

These are used to warm up and practice Bowelling and batting for cricket.
Previously they were tagged leisure=pitch and sport=cricket_net ...
But someone has pointed out that this in not a sport...
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:sport%3Dcricket_nets
so
sport_practice=cricket_net
A documented suggestion is to use sport=cricket, barrier=fence .. but the
argument is it is NOT A SPORT so you cannot use sport= anything! :-P
The suggestion is on
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:sport
I'd think similar 'restrictions' will be imposed by the pedantic on other
pitches that are only used for practice ..for example - half sized basketball
courts - only used for practice .. not full sized due to space restrictions. So
not a sport.. just practice.
There are similar concerns for sport=exercise, sport=fitness .. these too are
not sports..
So .. what tag to use? leisure=pitch still suits.
nonsport= ? :-)
