I would go talk to the football coach and tell him this, then over the summer work on getting in shape, he might be able to tell you some workouts to do.  Unless the coach is a total ass he will be glad to see you want to be on the team and will be impressed if you work hard over the summer to make it.  If he is an ass, well you wouldn't want to be on the team anyways then.  \n\nfor the asthma, there are many NFL players that have it.  I would also talk to your doctor to see if he has any suggestions for you.  \n\ngood luck!

If you're talking about REAL football (not soccer) I can help.  I played on a semi-pro team for 3 seasons.\n\nFirst of all, you have to have speed and dexterity.  Speed is natural, but can be improved with exercise.\n\nSecond, as far as health is concerned, eat correctly and balanced, exercise (lift weights) regularly.\n\nThird, develop a keen sense of what the game is all about.  Study tendencies both on defense and offense.  Moreover, always be ready to play any position when asked upon.  Practice throwing, catching and kicking if applicable.\n\nStudy the playbook intently and know every player's responsibility so you know what to do, when to do it, and can play their position.

Always try to find the open space. Pay attention to the off side rules. Learn to kick the ball in a way that the ball ends up were you want to send it..  The same heading the ball. Practice until you can do that. The ball is the tool of the game.

stab the first and second string QBs in their throwing arm. lol had to say it but for real you gotta push for reps and when your on the sidelines play catch alot and go nice and far apart to show off your arm. and if you are young then you should get your shot soon. try askin coach for a receivers slot and then ask for a wr pass play. there are many ways to impress the coaches you can find a lot of oppurtunities

Practice with the ball at least half an hour a day. You might want to consider hiring a personal trainer because they do help A LOT. You might also want to play with a bunch of people so you can practice your defensive stance, and technique attacking the ball....\n\nDon't attack the ball... have patience and shuffle backwards... that way you are slowing down the play, and giving your team mates time to come back and cover opponents... it really does make all the difference... \n\nGood luck!

DT is all about speed and power.  You'll be matched up against the offensive tackles most of the time, the biggest guys on the field.  You have to be able to get up off the line faster than they can and move around them.  A lot depends on your coach's play style, but your primary job is to put pressure on the quarterback and break up plays.  Additionally, it's your job to see holes in the defensive line and plug them up to stop inside runs.  \n\nGood luck!

linebacker is a tough position its all about making reads you need to pick up on stuff like how the guard is blocking the play which side of the offense is the strenghth, how many backs are in the backfield, and you need to be able to pick up on wing backs.  Also once you recognize this you need to make calls to let the line know everything you know.  also on run plays you need to be able to fill up holes.  But i would still say go for it i played it through high school and had a great time.  YOU JUST NEED TO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING ON THE FIELD BECAUSE ITS TOUGH TO PLAY IF YOU SRE CONFUSED OR GUESSING AT WHAT PLAY THEY ARE RUNNING

Get a football and start throwing it to someone.  Catch it when they throw it back.

Practice.  it depends on what position you want to play though.  For a QB practice throwing the football...and try different patterns..(deep, short, and then get a friend to run slant routes and stuff)  For a RB just practice running(sprinting) and also do some weight lifting for strength to break tackels.  For WR practice running routes (slant, post, corner etc) with a friend...practice diving and tip-toe catching for along the sidelines.  If  you want to be a defense then just lift weights and try to get quicker.

Hmmm, maybe u can find a coach to teach u and practice from there. Train when u have the free time. Beckham plays football for money. So u will have to sacrifice alot of ur free time to train and kick let he does.

keep practicing your hand skills by throwing the ball up and catching it. the more you do it the more you will get use to it. trust me 94 all-city wr speaking here. it worked for me. try to keep it simple as well! good luck and don't give up!

Oh boy - about a 1000 things come to mind in less than a second.  Here are a few thoughts to get you started:\n\nFirst, there are no magic answers and there are no guarantees.  You can do everythign you can to prepare in the offseason, but you may flat get beat by someone better than you.\n\nSecond - HS is 4 year program; be patient if you are a freshman.\n\nThird - be a team player; if the coach needs you somewnere else, accept that.\n\nStarters and stars are not made during the season; they are made in the offseason.  Physcial and mental preparation are king.  Don't expect to go into camp and be built into a starter.  I guarantee your competition is working in the offseason and so you must.\n\nIn the offseason:\n\npractice your skills seems the obvious answer, but just going out and throwing the football around isn't going to help you a whole lot.  You must practice with intent; you must practice with effort - one thing I tell my team is "You play like you practice".  Go ahead and write that down and tape it on your bedroom door and anywhere else you will see it every day.  \n\nThe first thing you need to do is open your mind and accept coaching.  That may seem simple, but if you have been doing something a certain way for a while and your coach wants to tweak or change it, you need to try.  For example, if you are throwing with a low release point (e.g. side aremed) the coach may try to get you to throw more over the top.  Don't fight him, listen to him.  There is a reason he is adjusting your throwing motion even if you have had past success your way.\n\nYou need to break the physical skills into the major components and practice those until you can do them in your sleep and then 'rep' them some more.  (In a triple option attack it takes the QB a good 300 to 400 repetions to get the two option reads down pat alone much less the pitches and the passing part of the game).  \n\nSome of the physical skills you need to break down and practice are: \n- taking the snap from center and push off from center\n- footwork for a 3 step drop, a 5 step drop and possibly a 7 step (if your system uses them) \n- your footwork for giving a handoff and misdirection plays that require you to change direction.  Much effort and emphasis is put onto passing and not enough on sound skills in the running game.  Passing is the single hardest thing to do in football even for the pro's.  In HS, I would venture to guess that the vast majority of your offense is predicated on the running game.  If you don't knwo the running game or can't make the handoffs, pitches, fakes, and misdirections quickly, you won't play. \n- Work on your play action fakes and learn to hide the ball on play action passes.  \n- Work on your throwing motion and accuracy.  (you can improve accuracy by thowing at targets such as hula hoops raised up to a reciever level or trash cans - don't accept aythign less than a bullseye).  \n- Work on opening your hips correctly when you come out from under center.  \n- Work on your footwork and your hips in yoru throwing motion.  \n\nWhen practicing a skill - for example, footwork coming out from under center.  Start with the first step (both to the left and to the right) and do it slowly every day in short sessions of about 25 reps each - get four sessions a day.  Demand perfection in yourself.  For example, Put tape on the floor to mark where you toe should hit every time on your first step.  Hit it everytime.  When you hit it everytime (about a 100 times in a row without missing), pick up the speed.  Rep it.  Add the next step - slow at first, then pick up the speed.  Form and muscle memory are more important than speed.  If the motioni is burned into your mind and body at slow speed, it will happen correctly at full speed.\n\n- Have someone film some of your practices and watch yourself to find errors.\n\n- Go to QB camps.\n\n-Do speed training.\n-Lift weights.\n-Get out with several rece
