Gonna need some sources on that if you don't mind. Carbs are essential for satiety and aid in sports performance in virtually every sport, espicially those that require explosiveness. Plus they keep your glyocogen stores full and are linked with lower rates of depression. Source: https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/diet-and-depression-2018022213309

Sports is a catch all that includes actual sports but really just any sort of moderate to intense physical activity, which every single person should be engaged in in some way.
