I would say it is ok. Many sports could do without the added immorality such as cheereaders, ring-girls and so on.

The sport itself is nothing wrong with it, exercise, competition, dedication to something. It is a great way to learn discipline and patience too. I know many people who were just hyper-active and had they not been doing sports, surely that extra energy would have been wasted into immoral activities.
