    The reference to the position you are asking about could best be described as “riding the pine.” You may want to also try out for cheerleader or mascot. Marshall

    Tightend sounds right up your alley as long as you can block a bit, catch a bit, and aren’t a complete pussy. ll cool jayson

    Maybe Safety if you can hit hard and are strong, or conerback if you can cover.Alot also depends on how good you are at doing each thing that position needs. Eric S

    You’re a bit on the small side for these positions, but I’d say safety or cornerback. Andrew C

    I would say you could play fullback because you can be a little bit smaller for that position but it is also a good place to be when you are just starting football. You do a little bit of everything and you really get a feel of what your personal skills are. Joe R

    I’d say you are the size and speed of a typical Quarter Back. There isn’t any tackling or much running involved.

    But to be a quarter back, you need to have good throwing skills, and you definitely need a good understanding of the game. If it’s an amateur team, ask them if you can have a go as quarter back (key position)… you never know.. you may be famous one day! :) Pamela H

    no man, its impossible to tell what place should you play, with out even seen your talents. but if you are an active boy i think goal keeper suits you. but cant exactly says with out seen you.do your best. Kamal Warna
