I suspect that sports is specifically mandated because physical activity is important for healthy living. Kids at boarding school have access to a huge amount of food and snacks. Imagine if they were also totally sedentary?

At the schools I know of debate is compatible with a JV sport, probably not with a varsity sport. JV does play a lighter schedule. Usually it’s two seasons of team sports and one season you can do a play/musical. I believe that often kids who have demonstrated talent at theatre can petition for two seasons of theatre and one season of sports.
