Yeah, I didn't particularly care for PE as a French kid growing up, but in hindsight I can play pretty much any common sport decently because of it. One unexpected side effect is that it makes socializing quite easy - I can accept when someone invites me to play tennis, volleyball, etc. because I have some basic grasp of the sport from school. In fact, when I moved to California, I saw that everyone was really into climbing, and started doing it too because I had done it in school, even though I had never been into it at the time.
