William is 16 years old and lives with his Mum, Dad and brother Thomas who is 17. He is currently in Grade 10 at High School. William is a loving, caring and affectionate boy. He enjoys school and has a couple of friends at school. However his ASD diagnosis means he has difficulty with friendships and often feels lonely. He has low self-esteem and lacks confidence, and finds school difficult. He often seeks reassurance for any decisions he makes. His fear of failure means he gives up quickly and he needs to work on developing his resilience. 
He has no issues with gross motor skills and enjoys the outdoors and playing sports. His hobbies to date include tennis and talking about cars, as well as playing on the Xbox. It would be great for William to develop his confidence and sense of self worth by engaging in some physical activity while being able to socialise with others once he is able to move into the social group.
