im not sure what you need but im guessing that you need to be fast, tell (over 6') and probably be able to catch 9 of 10 balls thrown to you..it all depends on your football team though.  If they are good then their standards would be a little higher.

First you have to make your highschool Football team ( Chances   1 in 2)  Then you have to start for your Highschool team and be a star ( chances 1 in 50).  Then you have to be Selected for a college team - scholarship ( Chances 1 in 50,000), then you have to start for your college team and be a star ( Chances 1 in 500,000).  Then you need to be picked  by the NFL draft or be picked up by a Free Agent contract ( Chances 1 in 800,000).\n\nThe odds of a class room full of kids, and one makes the NFL are the same as one child would win the Lottery ( 1 in 7-8 Million)\n\nSo the a good analogy for a elemtrary school class would be, that for every person living in your town, not a single one will make the NFL, all the people living in your town, only 3 might make it to college scholarship situation,  and then mabye 1 might be a star on his college team, but probably that one won't make the NFL.\n\nLet the kids Know that even the best athlete, can get HURT or injured in Highschool, or college football and never make the NFL because of their injury.\n\nThe lenght of time that an average person that plays in the NFL in only 3 years.  So even if they make it, the odds are it is not a Career.  They need education so that they can have a Great Job after their NFL carreer is over.\n\nGood Luck.\n\nEric\nFormer UVA Football Player

Practice and an undying will. Recievers like terrell owens catch a 100 footballs a day so get to work thats about 700 a week start counting. It's just like anything else if you do it enough it becomes automatic. Lift some weights too so you can escape the jams the good recievers will be able to. my plan is to eat a steak and potatoe a day to put on some weight then i do about 200 push-ups a day so get to work don't be a punk and slack off either there are so many recievers right now this is a competition no matter what situation you better not quit or else you going to let me and every one else down but by no-way do slack your school work so chap chap. Alright ain't good enough and if you slow don't quit and if short don't quit have faith anything is possible you will see.\n\nMy cousin in my oppinion was the coldest football player he let it slip away if you smoke stop don't let it burn away yo dreams and watch out for girls too but you know get ya freak on and don't forget running routes is crutial too. So run about twice a week and stretch alot when you can do the splits you got good agility and to make your arms stronger than your legs do handstands then upside push-ups i hope to see ya home boy.Good Luck!

Found this article...hope it helps. I also suggest watching college football and some pro (I'm not a pro football fan) watching the receivers and seeing how they fake and spin...it takes practice and repetition.\n\nYour passing game starts with the ability of your football wide receivers to get separation from their defenders. It doesn't matter if you have the greatest quarterback in the world if his receivers can't give him a window to throw to.\n\nThe first step is to teach your wide receivers how to get off the line. If the defenders are pressing and bumping at the line, the receiver must know how to beat the pressure. Begin by teaching fakes. The most basic is the "head bob". This is where the football wide receiver moves his head to one side while getting his body moving straight or to the other side. A good shoulder fake can spice this move up.\n\nSince defensive backs will eventually pick up on a repeated fake, teach your receivers to mix things up with double-fakes (fake one way, then the other, then move beyond the defensive back).\n\nFootball wide receivers must also be taught how to use their hands to gain separation. Teach the "rip" and "swim" techniques. If cutting left, teach them to use the right arm to "rip" up through the cornerback's arms. For the "swim" technique, teach your wide receivers to bring the inside arm up and over the corner's arms to knock the arms downward.\n\nOnce off the line, good route running is obviously an important skill to develop. One way to help your football wide receivers get open is to have them run hard to a specific spot, get control (possibly use a fake here) and make the cut. Plant the foot away from the direction of the cut, make the cut and then accelerate into the cut. Teach your players the importance of getting the defensive back moving backwards and then cutting away from them.\n\nBesides the straight line charge, you can also have your football receivers use an S-shape weave to get open. Have them run quickly at the defensive back to get close, then "curve" around him to gain separation.\n\nAgainst man-to-man coverage, learning the art of good cuts and making those cuts at the right time will be extremely important to the success of your wide receivers. Against zone coverage, it's a bit different. Since the defensive backs are defending an area, the football receivers won't need to use their fakes quite as much since they just need to find the holes in the zone.\n\nOne often over-looked area where you can give your players an advantage is in your scouting of the opposition. Don't underestimate the importance of exploiting how your players match up to the other guys. Figure out how you can game-plan how to get your best or fastest receiver matched up against the opposition's weakest or slowest defensive back.\n\nTeach your football wide receivers the correct fundamentals for getting open, game-plan your match ups effectively, then sit back and feel the satisfaction of watching a beautifully executed big play win the game for your players.\n\nMatt & Dave run http://www.football-plays-and-drills.com/get-open and enjoy teaching football players and coaches more about the football plays, drills, fundamentals and tips that result in individual and team success.

think that the ball is part of ur foot  and throw your leg where you want ur foot to go. Also build up your muscle in ur legs so when you hit the ball true it will go straight. And get a decent ball and boots

football is a contact sport, played on a 100 yard field. Like most other sports teams are separated into offenses and defenses. The offensive personnel attempt to take the football across the field 10 yards at a time. They have four attempts to travel at least 10 yards to renew the number of plays they have. On the fourth attempt they will usually either punt (to put the ball further on the other side of the field) or kick a field goal for 3 points. The offense moves the ball by either handing it to a running back, who tries to run with the ball until he is tackled.. Or throwing it to a reciever. The Quarterback is the center of the offense, and is the one doing all of the handing and passing.If the Quarterback misses the reciever it's an incomplete pass, and one of the 4 plays (called downs) is used up, without any yardage gained. If he misses his target, and one of the defenders catches it the other teams offense gets to take the field wherever the interceptor was tackled. If anyone ever drops the ball, it is called a fumble, and everyone will jump on it, if the defenders have possession of it, their offense takes the field, at whatever point the ball was. If the offensive players get on top of it first, it's a used down, and they have to start at wherever the ball is. At the end of the field there is a goal line, which the offense will try to get past it into the end zone score a touchdown.  If a reciever catches the ball, the defensive players will attempt to tackle him as well, before he can run past the goal line, and score a touchdown.  If a person is tackled for a loss of yardage, then it is added to the total that that offense has to acquire to sustain their drive. For instance, it's 1st down and 10 yards, then the Quarterback hands the ball to the halfback, but he is tackled three yards further back than they were. Now it is 2nd down and 13 yards. During passing plays the defensive players will either fall back and try to cover recievers so the quarterback can't throw to them, or blitz the quarterback and attempt to tackle him.\nDuring running plays you have almost the entire defense pursueing the ball-carrier. On each side there are 11 men. On the defense you have defensive linemen, who are usually really big and blitz almost every play. Linebackers who aren't as big, and both fall into coverage and blitz nearly equally, and defensive backs who are almost always in coverage. On the offense you have the offensive line, five men who block blitzing players, and attempt to open running lanes for ball carriers. Tight Ends, who both block and go out for passes. Wide recievers who almost always run out for passes. Running backs who carry the ball. And quarterbacks who throw the ball, run occasionally, and generally manage the offense.

If you are that good, then get yourself back into the local football teams and start impressing the coaches, once you have done that then the coach will let teams know and then if the teams are interested the scouts will come looking to see you play, and if you are good enough they will offer you a trial with their club, your other alternative is to try and get into a non league team, but a team that plays regularly and try from there. You will be very very lucky if you can find any team that will give you a trail just on your comments about how good you are. Good luck though.
