Club sports are fine, but they don’t have the cachet of the school teams.Not every parent would agree with you that it doesn’t matter if their son makes a school team or not. My son didn’t have that problem, but one of his classmates was borderline - in athletics and I guess elsewhere as well. He made the volleyball team, and his mother was thrilled with its effect on him. He did not make the basketball team, the same mother was up in arms.
It’s a tough thing.
