I looked on their website and saw that in the general advice for 9th-12th graders, it was advised that one should "hone their competitive spirit by participating in athletics". I was wondering if this might extend to non-physical sports as well. These might include (but are not limited to) sports such as chess, online CTF, etc.
 
You should participate in ECAs b/c you like them and to establish leadership. However, they are not a substitute for competitive athletics, at least in the eyes of USNA.
