Without friction they would slide around the pitch like a bunch of air-hockey pucks. Friction allows them to run and make cuts. It also means that the ball will slow down after being kicked so they can stay with it if they want to and continue to make small kicks to control it's direction. Friction allows the goalie to push off from the ground to launch himself/herself into the path of the ball to block goals.

∙ 14y agoGravity causes the soccer ball to come back down when you kick it up. It also keeps the players in contact with the field, and keeps the goals from floating away.

It keeps all the players on the field.
It allows the ball to be thrown in an arc over opposing players.

gravity and friction.
because of gravity
Like every other object it the air, gravity is constantly pulling it to the ground. So you might say that gravity greatly influences football because it wants the ball on the ground at all times. The different ways the players combat this force is basically football itself.
gravity
Gravity is not "used". In gymnastics, gymnasts almost defy-gravity by flipping in the air but have no control of what gravity does.
3. The gravity, the weight and the upthrust in jumping. There hope that helped!
Gravity on the moon is much less than on earth (0.1654g) Therefore a football, when kicked will go much further before the week moon gravity pulls it back down to the surface.
2003 but it is only used in arena football and used to be used in canadien football
No the football used in Arena football is the same size as those used in the NFL. This has helped some make the switch from Arena Football to the NFL and vice versa.
"Relative gravity" is used more or less as a synonym for density; it bears no direct relation with "gravity" as such. So, you would have to specify, "specific gravity [or density] of what substance"."Relative gravity" is used more or less as a synonym for density; it bears no direct relation with "gravity" as such.

force gravity matter! Son im bout to steel someone!
YES! the size of the planet does effect your throwing ability! If you get each planets' gravity number then you will notice that the smaller the planet the less gravity force/attraction it will have. If you go to Jupiter and throw a football the gravity will pull down on the football faster and make your throw much shorter than it would on Earth because Jupiter has a bigger gravity number then Earth.
