       So far as I can see the sports are in Touch because they help   
   reveal character.  It is not that big a deal but both brothers   
   have great sports ability but one has the will to use it and the   
   other has a more lackadasical attitude.  This makes him less   
   desirable in many ways than the other.  Since he won't train he   
   hurts himself when he tries to exert his ability.
