It seem like generally sport in OSM is just any physical activity. However,
it's key to note that features are only tagged with `sport` when
specifically designated for that activity.

For consideration, in the UK parkour is now officially recognised as a
sport. If you're not aware, parkour can be practised pretty much anywhere.
However, if you go to any local community and train with them, there will
be certain spots training always takes place at because of the features
there. That said, I wouldn't recommend OSM start tagging these spots
because there's nothing to designate these spots as training spots other
than the implicit value the physical features provide (which can already be
captured by mapping those - the same way that mapping a field of grass
generally implies any ball game could be played there). On the flip side,
there is now something called a "parkour park" which is an area designed
for training parkour with features specifically constructed to facilitate
training - these I would say definitely should have a `sport` tag.
