Let your coach decide

Where I live  the backs will average between a 4.4 and 4.8. A five flat wouldn't get an opportunity unless he was a good blocking fullback. If you have an opportunity go for it good fullbacks are hard to find.

It would be best if you played either free safety or cornerback as you are fast, can tackle and catch well.  A fast safety is one that QB's hate/fear.  A fast corner won't always let a receiver burn him that easily.  Sometimes, the coach will get desperate on crucial 3rd plays and use you as the go-to receiver.

well maybe your a little light but your young and you can always hit the gym....and 100 yard in 11 seconds is damn good man........thats like 12 or 13 seconds in 100m....the world record is like 9.87 or something.....now either way my friend if you play football your gonna need that ability to take a hit because your definetly gonna get hurt.....its the name of the game\n\nbut to figure out what you wanna do then you have to ask yourself what you wanna really do.......do you wanna tackle ppl and make interceptions or do you wanna score and have glory\n\nnow the higher level of competition you get the more the coaches dont try you out in different positions and you have to pick yourself....i had to do that and didnt like it becasue i got cut lol....i probably had more talent at running back but i tried out for defensive back and wide receiver.....learn from my mistake.....dont worry about getting cut or force yourself to do a position you dont truly love.....do the position that you feel most comfotably in unless the coach says otherwise\n\nnow the different positons are:\n\nquarterback: throws the ball and manages the offense....usually the team leader\n\nrunning back is divided in two....fullback and half back...fullback usually really big and is the lead blocker for the half back who is usually the main runner of the team...the running game and also both running backs catch short passes\n\nthe receivers are the usually the fastest players who run routs and catch all sorts or passes\n\nthe tight end is usually a big guy who is half wide receiver half offensive lineman.....they sometimes help out and block but most of the time they catch intermediate distance passes in the middle of the field\n\nnow the offensive lineman and the defensive lineman are the biggest on the field.....offensive blocks the defensive lineman when their trying to rush the quarterback\n\nthe linebackers are in the middle of the defense and usually stop the run or cover receiver in short yard situations \n\nand the defensive backs are divided in two....safeties are the last line of defense and stay back in coverage....the free safety covers the deep passes and the wide receivers and the strong safety stay closer to the linebackers for run support or cover the tight ends........of course there are exceptions and its not always like this..........and finally the cornerbacks cover the receiver directly and usually follow them everywhere on the field\n\ni would suggest with your size and speed and you say your small that you play corner but i never liked it because you have to backpedal a lot and you have to be quick to react and not just fast because you dont know where the receivers going\n\nsafety might be too hard for you the first year because you have to know all the receivers routes and stuff more and know the passing tree\n\nand if you wanna be on offense then you might wanna be a half back because you run and if your quick then you could be like the next barry sanders or you could shake the defenders easily\n\nor you could be wide receiver because most of them are really tall but there are shorter receivers that are quick as hell but make it.....like joey galloway or steve smith.....but you have to be able to catch and run precise routes\n\nfinal thouht get buff work out at the gym and find out what you love and what positon you would like but when working out at the gym dont lose any speed because speed is very useful and speed kills\n\ngood luck

Assuming you mean offensive skill positions, I'll go with Vernon Davis  starting at the 49'er TE over Eric Johnson, although they will employ 2 tight end sets since no one else on the team can catch the ball.  TE's have the least to learn since they obviously have had to block in college.  No QB's or RB's will start - DeAngelo Williams will have the best chance to start for the Panthers; Young and Leinhart will ride the pine for AT LEAST a year, maybe even 2! WR's will definitely not start until maybe midseason since they have to learn how to the blocking game which is vital.

You need a good head on your shoulders first. This enables you to make snap decisions that will put you in the play. I also suggest conditioning. I mean running ablility is a must. If you can't run you can catch or out run someone else. Agility and flexability is a must. You must be able to move in different directions in an instant. If you are not flexible you will be more prone to injuries. Other than this you need good hands. Your hands play an essential part of the game. You  must catch the ball, throw the ball and use your hands to hold someone to tackle them and even use them to push them off of you to get to the play or to gain yardage. These are a few things you should work on to be a good football player. Attitude, confidence, hard work, determination and being coachable will help extremely. I hope this helps. JT Lay

Academy's receive lots of applications every month from young players that want to play football.!!!\nThe best thing that you can do is try to get a recommendation from a player or a person that is involved with a club, that way you are at least guaranteed of a trail, these days it helps to know somebody otherwise you wait forever.!!!\nKeep on sending letters to the different clubs,phoning them, go to the clubs themselves and try to speak to the coaches,etc.!!!\nA hands on approach is your best bet.!!!\nGood Luck.!!!

.You are kinda small for a DE. Have you (or the coaches) tried you out at another position? Maybe a RB? At your height, that would seem like the obvious position.\nThen a safety or cornerback. Remember...your still growing and continue to workout, that will always help tremendously, and the coaches (if they are any good) will find the proper fit for you.\nGood luck

Your first move should be to walk into the coaches office and introduce yourself.  He will be able to help you determine where to focus...\n\nYou'll determine if you can catch, have speed and if you know how to run routes?\n\nStrength and height are meaningless if you can't catch the ball at wideout.  Also, it's not vital for you to know the plays so much as knowing the routes since the QB can tell you what to do on each play until you learn.  If you are unwilling to learn routes, maybe you need to go on on the other side of the ball.  If you can't catch or run (especially backwards!), then you can't be a cornerback since that is all you do (I played corner).  As a Defensive End, you'll be going up against some of the biggest kids on the other team AND the QB, who is usually the best athlete...if you feel you are strong enough go for it...\n\nMy advice is to start at WR...the team needs a bunch of them to run in plays, it's the easiest position since you only really need to know 10 pass routes to run and you usually go against cornerbacks who are only playing the position because they wanted to be WR's so you can beat them easily.\n\nGood luck!

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.

Play football. Actually, declare for some really obscure degree, then change when you get there.

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

Practise on ball control role.That's the most important part for a soccer player anyway.

Play Fullback or tight end.  Next join the track team and work as hard as you can.  Next thing you know you'll get a little quicker and can be even better.
