i am trying to decide what sport i should play in high school.

my first three picks (in no particular order) are

basketball
football
golf

im 14 years old, in 8th grade, i live in north texas (near southlake and euless trinity), and i am 6 feet 2 or 3 inches tall. i weigh about 150 lbs, and have an okay stamina (my mile time is 7:02). i can sprint really quickly for short periods due to my powerful legs. my arms are much weaker than my legs, i can only bench around 110 lbs, and i can leg press like 400 lbs. my squat is around 100 lbs.

in football this year i started at running back (we run the spread). my longest carry was around 14 yards, and whenever we got into the redzone my coach pulled me out and put my friend in, but i scored a 2 point conversion once. in one game, we ran a pass play to mee on 4th and 14 and i picked up 12, which was the longest reception for us in that game. i only played on defense in one game and i played defensive line. i got into the back field alot and recovered a botched snap. i was on kick return at the back (not the deep returner but the line right in front of him) and my longest return was around 20 yards. my best position was at kicker, and my long was 73 yards with a light wind. we didn’t do any field goals, but thats not to say i couldn’t. i could do it with good blocking. half of the onside kicks we did in practice were recovered by the kicking team (i actually recovered one of them.). so my football season was alright.

my basketball is pretty good. i play center/ low-post/ high-post. we’re currently 7-0 in the regular season, 6-1 in tournaments (both of them were a team tournaments and im b-team). i have a total of like 30 points in tournaments and regular season. i can handle the ball well. i rarely get fouled, and when i do its usually on the floor. but i sink freethrows usually. i’ve only fouled out twice in the regular season, and my coaches tell me i’m not aggressive enough. they say that because when i get rebounds i don’t usually make it when i go up with it again.

when i took golf lessons, after i got my swing down, i was consistently hitting 150 yds plus with a 7 and 8 iron.

my high school, runs the spread shotgun, with no tight ends and 4 WR.

my high school runs man-to-man defense, and my current school runs diamond and 1.

no idea about my high schools golf except the current team is really good.

so, which sport should i play? basketball? football? golf? and what position as well.
i can play more than one sport, but i also have to have three years of foreign language, a tech credit, and a fine arts credit… my school has an a-day b-day system. and it would be hard to schedule
7:02 is not slow, we had an exam over how fast we could do it, and 100 was 6:59 or less, the first person, who does nothing but track and cross country got 6:16

   The same season that would depend on which one you have to do is pick between golf and all you like more than one you could play as you cant play more or are in high school once play more.
   For sure and football because they are in the same season that would depend on which one sport you could play as you have to do is pick between golf and all you have to do is.
