I'm about 15 yrs, 5 foot 9, 135 pounds, and want to try out for football. I'm a pretty fast runner and good jumper. The only problems are that: 1, football is crazy competitive at my school (if you watch NFL countdown, they talked about us because Nick Mangold's little sister is on the offensive line), and 2, my parents want me to do marching band(again). The only other problem I have is that I am not good at catching passes because I used to have a lazy eye when I was younger which led to stunted hand-eye coordination growth. I hate band and never actually wanted to do it (parents made me), and I've been wanting to play football since I was 11. I'm positive that, since football is what I want to do more than anything, I could stay with it and work up from where I am. Do you think I should give it a shot and if so, what position should I play?
