It is not said that you are restrained from playing sports. Please read to the reply made by Sarvopama pr ACBSP above over here
In the spiritual world the friends of Radha and Krishna play all kinds of games, but these games are in such a different mood and not to win, but to gain Krishnas favor. They are transcendental sports. Even a type of checkers, hopscotch, tug of war (tug of love:)- Water sports and splashing, Water cdolor guns (not like shooting but like a big suringe) colord powder fun fights, throwing flower petal balls, Wrestling, Immitating animals with sound and action. And so many other games.
But in this world all games are based on false prestigue, false pride, false ego etc.
