As a high school FB coach I use plyometric conditioning emphasizing explosiveness. Stay with the withs and add plyometric exercises.

The key is to keep a long and constant stride.  To get to that point you should run a lot of hills.  This will get your knees to rise higher.  Another important part to improving is to get your wind.  When you breath in a rhythm that is comfortable to you, the air keeps the body energized.  You should time an inhale after three to seven short exhales.  This activity should take place on every step.  The last part to practice is that sprint to the finish.  Only you will know where that starts.  When you pass the finish line, you should have nothing left in your  tank.  You coach should be able to assist you after that.  Some runners like to start the sprint going into the last turn, some are comfortable in sprinting the last 200, and others even start after the second to last turn.  that final kick  is what makes the most difference.  However, you must be able to keep up with everyone up to that point.\n\nIf you work on leg strength and your breathing, your times should improve quickly.

get ur group of frnds in the team and try playing monkey in the middle to help u communicate and pass. and try juggling the ball to give you some extra ball control. also dribble the ball through ur frnds using tricks. and finally kick at a goal over and over.

work on your reactions off the line, quad work outs really help with this. \n\nwork on your swim moves to get past offensive linemen

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

It all depends on you.  Football is a game of speed and strength.  If you want to be good at it you have to be bigger and faster than everyone else on the field.  Weights are important for about an hour or so a day, but don't forget about speed.  Find a gradual incline in a road or sidewalk or park somewhere, measure off 40 or 50 yards and sprint up the hill.  Do that about 10 times or so with a short break in between each rep.  I did this, ran distance the other 3 days a week (took sundays off) going into my Junior year.  I dropped 0.30 sec off my 40 time.  Good luck!

You want simple drills such as dribbling around cones, practicing shooting with your left foot in your spare time, one on ones with your mates, and you need to do some continuous and circuit training to get your general fitness up...as for controlling the ball at high speeds try some fartlek training...this is running at different speeds over different terrain!

No such thing as quick and easy in American football.\n\n-watch the ball carriers midsection...\n-break down, shoulders over your knees, keep your feet moving...\n-place your head in front of the ball carrier - imagine putting your chin on his hip pads...\n-throw your arms through, making a tight, clubbed fist...keep feet pumping...\n-wrap him up, lift and drive.

Practice and experience.\nI was given a little trick to learn well.\nGo stand on the goal line at a local football field (preferably when nobody is around).  The grass is usually cut low enough to be similiar to a light rough.  Then just hit out some balls and track where they land - mark your shortest, your longest and your average.\nDo that with each club until you have a good idea of the distances.  Write it down and you can keep it in your bag to refer to when you are out on the course.

I know what you mean, Ive been playing for 7 years,and I'm also 14, I'm usually mid or forward and am short also so i have the same problem.... I will give you the advice my coach gave me... dribble the ball a couple of times then when you go to kick watch to see where you're other foot is. Lets say you are right mid, so you would kick the ball with your right foot, so your left foot should be very close to the ball not right beside it but if you put the top of your left foor near the center of the ball then move it over about 2 inches (depends on your shoe size) then you will see your aim and your kick will be harder. It will take some getting used to but if you practice every day you can have it down in probably a week then it would seem like you always kicked that way.\nAlso, after you do that you can learn how to kick with your laces, if you already don't know how, I learned that and I can know kick it twice as hard with my laces, or kick it up withmy laces then head it far... either way. Take baby steps with it though.

don't use your toes to kick the ball with, but use the top of your foot (the shoelaces) for power, or the side for accuracy.\n\npractice dribbling around things, is a good idea...but don't waste all your time running as you could be an olympic athlete but if you can't control or kick the ball your not going to make the team.\n\nAlso please note that as this is your first time, i doubt that your actually trying out for a high-caliber team, therefore fitness is not essential. A player who can pass the ball, and is smart, is much more effective than a headless chicken running around the field.\n\nDon't worry about learning fancy moves either, like you said its your first time, practice ball control (juggling, dribbling), and passing/shooting against a wall...this should help you improve.

You want to be able to control the ball well so practice that and other than that just build up ur endurance by doing long runs and ontinuous sprinting, strength always helps, no matter what sport ur playing

sprints, lift weights if can, eat healthy, whatever stretches you did in football (if you want to).... just about anything.... just don't hurt yourself in the process.... don't work TOO hard....

kicking the ball should help

ideally, u shd get urself a sprint coach at ur local running club.\nI would start prob by doing some weights and getting your strenth up to increase the capability of the force your muscles can exert. \nThen I would start to do more powerful weights like cleans. This will increase your explosive power and make you quicker off the line. \nPlyometric exercises are also good in improving speed (bounding, jumping, skipping etc). \nAnd of course sprint work at ur local track will also be vital. If its pure speed ur after then sessions like 5x60m flat out with a couple of minutes recovery wd be gd.\nAlways ensure u are fully warmed up as these exercises will put pressure on your leg muscles and may cause them to pull or tear!

do what i do, do finger push-ups for a strong grip on the ball. and to learn to prevent turnovers, go to a park or school find a three sided handball court and work on passing to your front, left, and right. it worked for me, my turnover per game improved this season, from 4.6 to 1.4
