Sports can be good for you, depending on the sport. Some sports carry sigificant risk of injury, such as american football, where athletes can snap their spines.

Sports reduce blood pressure, resting heart rate, increase cardiac output, and reduce cholesterol. They improve life expectancy, and reduce disease incidence.

Some sports are likely to "burn out" the athletes body however, and may not be as valuable as others. Ballet is one example. The Martial Arts can also be problematic.
