Morphology
The meaning 'a sport played outside' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'outdoor' (related to outside) with 'sport' (organized physical activity). This simple adjective+noun composition is cross-linguistically common and follows standard English patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand the MWE.
Etymology
Outdoor sport paints a simple picture: outdoor means outside and sport means a game or activity, so it refers to activities played in the open air on fields, parks, or hills. So it means 'a sport that is played outside'.
