There are many ways for young children to enter into sports without it becoming too competitive. Many leagues focus more on team participation and skills development rather than winning or losing. Soccer is an excellent sport for this, but many others such as Baseball or Basketball can do the same. It is mostly dependent on the coach's attitudes rather than the particular sport.
a young sports leader is someone who helps train and teach children (younger sports people)
Right now he is a little young to start a training program. The best way to keep him interested in sports would be to get him on a pee wee sports team.
The most popular sports in Japan when I was young, was basketball and soccer. I used to live there and I played for Nagasaki in both sports :)
Role-modeling is one of the best ways to pique a child's interest in the world of books. By reading them books and making a small game out of finding different items in the pictures will make it fun for young children. It's important as children get older that the book is of interest to the child, for example if they are interested in sports then try them on a sports related book.

Quite the opposite actually! Starting sports at and early age keeps young children healthy, safe, and promotes social skills, increases learning ability, and it can form bonds that can last a lifetime. Many people, including myself, have known friends that they met playing sports at a young age, and are still very close with them today. These days, staying active is the most important thing a young person can do.
The best exercise for young people is play, including sports.
