No - football (soccer) is a contact sport, although it has less contact than American football. Defenders frequently use their body to block/shield the ball, nudge a player off a ball, or tackle (although they must hit the ball, or else it is a foul). Other players might use their opponents body to help them jump higher to head the ball from a corner kick, free kick, or goal kick. -Keep in mind though that on purposely making physical contact for non-sporting reasons, not going for the ball, or too severe may result in a foul and beyond (expulsion from the game), such as a red card.

No it is not. I'm a Baseball player and i will admit its not. Baseball junkies will say "oh yeah you can run over the catcher! and hit people sliding into bases!" but it is not a contact sport. contact is not a part of baseball it just happens sometimes, may i say rarely.

Basketball is a Contact sport that allows limited contact.... this is demonstrated through rebounding and posting up as there is a fair bit of contact involved.

Is tennis a contact sport?

No it is not. But then again, it is. Depends on what your definition of "contact sport" is. In most cases, ping pong is not a contact sport for it contains no actual physical contact between the players as you would see in hockey or football (which are full contact, or collision, sports). According to another definition, ping pong, in a way, is a contact sports because there is physical contact between the player and the ball (when you go to serve the ball, you are holding it. This is considered contact between player and object).
