is gaming a sport

IS GAMING A SPORT As a Competitive Gamer that trains 10+ Hours aday 7 days a week, i agree with both sides of the debate. In Gaming, you are using the same tactics as you do on a Football pitch in Gaming, to outflank and manuver your opponent. On the other hand, Gaming is questioned as a sport because it is not a much physical side to it. But are there sports that dont have a physical side to it? Chess IS Considered a Sport, so why is Gaming NOT? I feel that Gaming is not Considered a Sport because of the lack of knowloage people know about Gaming. People will say its not because they dont know much about Gaming and havent thought about it long enough. I have acctuly spent hours of thinking why Gaming cant be a sport, and apart from the Physical side to it, there isent one. The Physical Side to Gaming is not enough to downgrade Gaming to be NOT a sport because of the sports that are like Gaming, but have no physical side, such as Chess. What are your feelings?
