Sport or Art?

I don't see SCA as a martial arts in any sense of the word.
There is no battlefield application, no codified traditions, no system, no ranking.
As a sport there is no league, divisions, agreed playing fields, judges/refs or 100% agreed to rules. It's all very up to interpretation.
At best its a game of cowboys and indians much like we played as children. We run around playing warriors, and when we fight we hope each other falls down.
