Sport, intended as “a game, competition, or activity needing physical effort and skill that is played or done according to rules, for enjoyment and/or as a job” (from the online Cambridge dictionary), I think was “invented” thousands and thousands of years ago, when people needed to chase and hunt animals for survival. Then the official sports competitions were brought together for the first time in Greece, with the first Olympic games dating back to 776 BC (more than 2700 years ago!) .
