Indeed. In a competitive sport there should be a way to evaluate result to determine standings.
If ironing is just about extra bulk of equipment not the actual product of ironing, then it's more like weight-added competition. Otherwise there needs to be some way of judging the ironing aspect, like quality, novelty, or artistic merit, in addition to the otherwise difficulty, like in figure skating, for example.
But just for fun - everything is sport. In the line of "everything and the kitchen sink", how about extreme dish-washing!
