4 yr. old want to play soccer...Sticklers

I don't know who's had experience with this...My 4 1/2 year old has Stickler's syndrome and wants to play soccer. He has hypermobil joints and I'm not sure if this activity is bad for him. He hasn't had any problems with his joints but does have long skinny arms, legs and fingers. I don't consider soccer at 4 years old to be much of a contact sport; however, I do want to keep him safe and healthy. What activites do you suggest for a child who has the potential to have arthitis at a young age?
