Do you think gym classes should stress individual fitness over team sports?

I remember when I was a kid being the unpopular kid that nobody ever wanted on their team, and I’ve known many people that have been turned off exercise entirely by school gym classes. I eventually came to enjoy exercise after I spent a summer working a very physically demanding job, but alot of people don’t. Team sports seem to favour the naturally athletic and popular kids. Would it promote lifelong fitness more if things like aerobics and weight training were emphasized over team sports?
I wasn’t fat either, I was a very average sized kid
