I honestly don't even think this story has anything to do with gender stereotyping, discrimination etc the child is obviously dressing up like that to imitate what his sisters do at home, it's not as if it's every day proper clothing..

Regardless of what this boy wants to wear he still has to learn that there are rules in some places and his mother, instead of running to the papers should be sitting him down and explaining to him that a kids club is maybe not the right setting to be wearing dress up clothes. He wouldn't turn up at the school he attends wearing this stuff so why should the kids club be any different? and if the child really does want to wear dresses why not proper clothing?

As for the kids club well the spokesperson has said they have been asked to wear clothing of the gender stated on his registration form, which states male.

I don't see a problem with them enforcing that.
