It's important to develop your physical skills as early as possible. Most professional football players have been playing the game since at least high school. If you're not in high school anymore, but you still want to play football, join a local league, or find camps. Do anything to boost your skills and knowledge of the game. In high school, you should expect to invest about 10-15 hours a week practicing. In college, that time increases to about 25-30 hours a week.  To go pro you have to play football as much as possible. In the off-season, don't stop training. Expect to make some sacrifices to get in all the training you need. Becoming a professional athlete requires a huge time commitment. If you want to get into the pros, your best bet is to get into a good college. Pay attention to your GPA and take classes that will boost your chances of getting into a good school.  Take classes in biology and the health sciences. The more you know about the human body and what is required for peak performance, the better.  Keep in mind playing college football is not a guarantee that you will play professionally. Only 1.7% of college players will play professional football. If a scout visits your school, be on your best behavior. Don't show-off, and don't disrespect your teammates. Scouts are looking to see how well you play the game, but also how well you play with others.  Maintain a good relationship with your coach. Your coach might know the scouts and be able to give you a reference. Getting a recommendation from a coach could be the defining factor in whether you get picked up or not.  No matter what, keep a good attitude. Show energy in warm-up and stay positive on the sidelines. If you get negative feedback from a scout, learn from it. Improve yourself daily.
