I don't think you mean "obligation" (An obligation is a course of action that someone is required to take, whether legal or moral.), but I get your gist.

If he doesn't believe in a spiritual existence or entity then he can't join the Scouts - endof.

If he waits until he's 12, he will be eligible to join the Army Cadet Force :

The ACF is a national, voluntary, uniformed youth organisation. It is sponsored by the Army but not part of it and neither our cadets nor our adult volunteer leaders are subject to military call-up. We offer a broad range of challenging adventurous and educational activities, some of them on a military theme. Our aim is to inspire young people to achieve success in life and develop in them the qualities of a good citizen.
I don't think they'll see a lack of spirituality as a problem,
