I have a section on the resume that includes the sports teams I've played on and the plays that I've acted in.
What is a good term for this section?

A good term for such a section, however, largely depends on who you are, your profession and who is going to receive your resumé. If it's a job application and your artistic and sportive experience are totally unrelated to the position you're applying for, I suggest "trivia"
- extracurricular activity - educational activities not falling within the scope of the regular curriculum
- "trivia" - Insignificant or inessential matters; petty details or considerations, trifles.
