I was wondering, how do I animate someone playing football? Or as you americans like to call it - soccer.
Has anyone done it before? Has anyone got any tips?
just watch some football games, and try to copy the exact movements.
Beat me to it...
I would advise CGI'ng the ball.

Or getting a cheap one from a key chain.
CGIing the ball...hmmm. I'll think I'll try that but it will take a very long time. Too long I think. I think I'll try what Chuppa said.
Thanks for the advice
I'd be happy to CGI the ball for you.
In AE.

I have proper LEGO official footballs. I got them in a mix and match box of Lego from Lego Denmark.
Here are some Lego Footballs on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-LEGO-10x-FOOTB … _500wt_749

People have masked much, much worse, so doing the ball in CGI wouldn't really be worth the effort.
Football and soccer are two different things.
It's a football!!!
Are you American Xpictures?
Football is what they call "soccer" everywhere but America
Yep, we're like that... "America: being different since 1776" 
i'd throw my lot in with the mask-er's (i doubt thats even a word) its a lot simpler than CGI-ing it.
... unless your going for something big like remaking a FIFA World Cup in lego or something
Soccer is what they call "Football" everywhere but America.
Fixed
Football is what they call "soccer" everywhere but America.
Three words...ca-na-da........
