GCSE PE for less than sporty ds?

Ds really wants to do PE GCSE. The syllabus looks good, and I see that there are lots of approved activities to choose from (some which look pretty unrealistic though - polo doesn't feature much in most schools Xmas Hmm )

Ds is not at all good at sport however. He's mildly dyspraxic, so ball sports are a bit of a non-starter and he's not exactly the best swimmer, either.

He's interested in fitness though, and loves outdoorsy stuff (orienteering etc). The subject also ties in with his career aspirations - he wants to be a copper (he knows he won't be able to join the police straight from school, but he's determined).

Obviously we'll talk to his teachers, but has anyone here any experience of non-sporty students doing OK at GCSE PE?

Hello OP
We've edited your title to prevent people mixing up gospels from games. Grin
Good luck to your DS whatever he decides.
