I guess it depends on your definition of a sport.

A game, it can be, a sport, maybe not so much. Some people consider Poker a
sport, other consider it a game and some even consider it a career.

There are definitely aspects of HAM Radio that can be considered a sport,
HAB hunting, Foxhunting, ARDF, etc but overall I wouldn't have put the
whole hobby in that category.
