Unfortunately no, he’s not all that athletic, which I think some of the baws here that recommended he do jiujitsu might be a starting point. Or possibly the wrestling team

I will say that jiu jitsu has been a good thing for my 9 year old. He still has his frustrations, but it opens the door for us to talk about how things are hard, you have to work hard to get over it, and you will constantly deal with adversity and need to find the best way out. It helped even more when I started a few months back. I think it's a great thing that can extend past just school.

It lacks the team socializing aspect particular to his school, but there is socializing with the other people training. I was a big fan of playing sports in high school. But I was competent and never felt like I didn't belong. From a social/self-confidence perspective, wrestling team may be a lot if he's not comfortable.
