The Pros and Cons for a School sport are that it builds comradery, social skills, and builds bonds with the adults so the students can begin to make connections; cons are that they take up time and could cost money depending on what sport and if there is any fundraising involved.
The pros and cons of robotics are that it helps build connections to the students future, it challenges both the mind and body, it REALLY helps build social skills; the cons are essentially the same.
The pros and cons of making robotics a sport are that the pros are that there are no direct impacts to anything, just that the students who participate can say they are in a sport and that the robotics team can get more attention from the school/county to possibly get more funding and students. The cons are none, there isn't any real reason for it to be bad for it to become a sport, the school might just have to fund it a tad bit.
