El deporte es una actividad física reglamentada, normalmente de carácter competitivo, que puede mejorar la condición física (Antúnez, M. 2001) de quien lo practica, y tiene propiedades que lo diferencian del juego.	Sport is a regulated physical activity, normally competitive in nature, that can improve the physical fitness (M. Antúnez, 2001) of the person doing the activity, and that has properties that differentiate it from the game.
La RAE, en su Diccionario de la lengua española, define deporte como una «actividad física, ejercida como juego o competición, cuya práctica supone entrenamiento y sujeción a normas»; también, en una segunda acepción, más amplia, como «recreación, pasatiempo, placer, diversión o ejercicio físico, por lo común al aire libre».	The RAE (Royal Spanish Academy), in its Spanish dictionary, defines sport as a «physical activity, practiced as a game or competition, whose taking part is done either as training or playing by a set of rules»; in addition, in a second, broader sense, as «recreation, pastime, pleasure, fun or physical exercise, usually done outdoors».
Por otra parte, la Carta Europea del deporte lo define como: «Todas las formas de actividades físicas que mediante una participación organizada o no, tienen como objetivo la expresión o la mejora de la condición física y psíquica, el desarrollo de las relaciones sociales o la obtención de resultados en competición de todos los niveles».	On the other hand, European Charter for Sport defines it as: «All forms of physical activities that, through organised participation or not, have as their objective the expression or improvement of one's physical and mental condition, the development of social relationships or the attainment of results in competition at all levels».
Institucionalmente, para que una actividad sea considerada deporte, debe estar avalada por estructuras administrativas y de control reconocidas que se encargan de reglamentarlo (las organizaciones deportivas).	Institutionally, for an activity to be considered a sport, it must be endorsed by recognized administrative and control structures that are in charge of regulating it (the sporting organisations).
El hecho de que alguna actividad no esté reconocida institucionalmente como deporte, no impide que pueda estarlo popularmente, como ocurre con el deporte rural o con los deportes alternativos.	The fact that any activity isn't recognised institutionally as a sport, doesn't prevent it from being one unofficially, which happens with rural sports or with alternative sports.
