Be able to catch almost any ball that the infielders throw to you, and be able to reach and get off the base to catch not-so-good throws if you have to.  Also be able to throw the ball to 3rd base in case there's a forceout and you have to throw it to 3rd base.  You might want to be able to stop balls hit down the right field line, so perhaps practice diving for those.  Also stop balls hit to your right.  IN SUMMARY:  Be able to field the ball and be able to move and catch the ball very well.

I would work your legs and your abdominals in the gym. Squats, power cleans and calf raises will provide explosion and power for your legs. This explosion then translates into speed adn quickness. Your abs are your central core power, strong ables will allow you to be more stable and more aggressive. Run a lot to keep in shape, when you are late in the game and are in better shape then your competition, you can dominate.

abs shoulders\nchest triceps\nback biceps\n\nchest legs is also a good combination

You are the same height that I am, it's not a problem.  Your fighting style will be different than a tall person, that's all.  My screen name is the nickname that my fellow karate-ka gave me.  MightyMite  Rank-Nikyu  Have fun!

Depends on your stature.  You said you're good at running and catching, so if you're tall and lean and fast, you'd be an excellent receiver, cornerback, or safety.  If you're a bit bigger, then go for a tight end or line backer.  If you're huge, you play on the offensive or defensive line.

being a first baseman myself, my advice would be that the most important skill is to be able to catch balls in the dirt - mostly bad throws from 2B, SS, 3B. another is the stretch to catch the ball. tall isnt as important as long - being able to reach out and catch the ball the earliest possible. quickness isnt really an issue, you only need to move 15 feet MAX to either side.

Height hopefully is not your main consideration for a boyfriend!  It is always nice to have a big strong guy to hold u close but other qualities r much more important!  Like his love, loyalty, compassion, kindess, personality....please do not fall into stereo types!!!  Good luck!

Chill dude, my mate was like shortest dude in class at 15, now he is like 6'3. He shot up at 18. Be patient, and eat lots of protein and carbs.

Weight, strength, and speed are the factors.◘

When I was in high school, several of the best players on the varsity teams were short. My sister was one of them - she's only 5 ft 1 inch tall and she was a great player. Some of the other short players were notable for their speed and three point shots. \n\nIf I get a vote, I'd say go for it, but have a back-up plan. It's awful tough to make it as a pro-athlete, and whether or not you do, you'll still have to eat! (If you're wondering how to come up with a back-up plan, I'll tell this - the people I know who are most happy are the ones who are doing something they enjoy. Develop hobbies you love - you'll be suprised at how often they can turn into careers!)

Your still growing..  DE a good position, but here is more to being a good footbal player that size and muscle.. Speed, quickness, football smarts and being aggressive have to be there too..  \n\nwithout the desire, dedication and discipline you will never be a great DE..

If you want great information on shooting check out STACK Magazine. They had an article a couple months back written by one of the greatest shooting coaches of all time (he name is escaping me right now).  They also have a lot of articles on how to build strength, speed, agility, JUMPING, and other things. Great magazine. Give it a try.  (they have a website and i think is www.stackmag.com but i'm not 100% sure of that)

1. Habits-caring, sense of humor, respect for others, willing to accept responsibility.\n2. Height-I'm partial to any man over 6 feet. Weight is not really an issue.\n3. Extra ability- to know what I don't know.  That why with the two of us together we know everything.\n4. Looks- Clear skin helps. I lean more towards Hispanic men. Which is weird since it is hard to find any over 5'10".\nOther than that, not much else counts. Remember love is blind.\n5. Job and money go hand in hand.  If you don't have a job, then you won't have money.  Enough to support me and eventually kids, with some to spare.\n6. Religion never came into consideration.\n      U.S. The thing that really got me about my husband was his lips.  When I would talk to him at school, I would think how it would be nice to suck on his bottom lip.
