In my short time at school the physical education classes were hell, because besides being mandatory the selected sports were team sports. I was always left aside in these sports, I was the one who stood by the teacher's side doing nothing. Then the teacher put me in table tennis, and definitely my good memories in school are in table tennis. Here in Brazil table tennis is a sport very much associated with the elite and autistic people. And in the club there were really only autistic people, and it was the only place in school that I didn't feel excluded, nobody cared about appearance or physical disability, everyone just wanted to play. Eventually I met my "rival," he was autistic, he was definitely a stereotypical sports anime protagonist. We never talked, in fact nobody talked, there was no friendship. I dropped out of school very early. What encouraged me to do this thread is that I saw that it is now in international tournaments. I was not good at the sport, never was, but there I felt included.
I know there are young people here on the forum and my advice is to pursue one of these sports: table tennis or chess.
