Ideas for ways to improve at sport?

My situation:

I'm a Year 7 student who fails miserably at sport (I mean, so miserably it's not even funny. I can barely swim 10-15 metres, for God's sake asdfghjkl)

I don't know how I can improve socially (as in, with other people), as I doubt there're sports clubs for people who are completely inept at sports and are considered gaming nerds ._. Not particularly worried about the gaming nerd bit, but definitely the completely inept at sports part.

So depressing!

To add insult to injury, my school just happens to be like one of the top schools at sport or something (don't know, don't really care, actually) and encourages participation, and the fact that I hate sports just contributes to the 'nerdy' factor (don't even know why I'm considered a nerd ._.) AND.I.HATE.IT. Like, the other 'nerds' can at least run 200 metres without gasping for air.

So, anyway, since we are in the summer holidays right now, I want to be at least somewhat decent enough at sport to participate in some like of weekend sport (I don't even do weekend sport), 'cuz I kinda wanna be a prefect at school in Year 12, but sports is like, vital for that role.

Ahahah, enough ranting. Any tips? 😋
