ACT is eking out resources for winter sport (3-7)

I believe the answer is:

ice-skating

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'for winter sport' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'act is eking out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates anagramming the letters (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'act'+'is'+'eking'='actiseking'
'actiseking' with letters rearranged gives 'ICE-SKATING'.

'resources' acts as a link.
This may not be right. It may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ice-skating that I've seen before include "Frozen water sport" , "Torvill and Dean's winter sport" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
