Finally, the answer to your prayers. Becoming a great football player isn't anywhere near easy, but with hard work and dedication, anyone can do it.

Instructions

Difficulty: Challenging

Things You’ll Need:

  • Heart
  • Dedication
  • Time
  • Space
  • A football
Step1
First, you will have to set up a time schedule for practice.
Step2
Then, you just need to find some space to practice(Backyard, street, etc.)
Step3
Choose a position. Choose your favorite position and practice at it. For example, great wide receivers are fast and can catch so they practice that the hardest.
Step4
If you are trying to be a player, you'll need to have appropriate size and abilities. For example, linebackers are good tacklers and range from 240 to 260 pounds.
Step5
Last and probably most important, find out where you need work at whether it's jumping or throwing, get on yourself and practice at it.

Tips & Warnings

  • Most football players are strong and fast, so strength and running are nessecities for any position. The best way to get faster is to run as fast as you can until your legs really, really start to burn. One of the best ways to get stronger is to eat high calorie foods and lift weights.
  • Don't be scared, but injuries are common in football. If you are in good shape and are aware of what's happining, you have a slight chance of being hurt.
