To effectively receive a handoff in football, the player should have good communication with the quarterback or ball carrier, maintain proper positioning and timing, secure the ball with both hands, and quickly react to the play's direction. It is important to stay low, keep the elbows in, and have a firm grip on the ball to prevent fumbles. Practice and coordination with teammates are key to executing a successful handoff.
A handoff in football is when the quarterback gives the ball to a running back or another player. It is a crucial part of the game strategy because it can deceive the defense and create opportunities for the offense to advance the ball down the field. The timing and execution of a handoff can determine the success of a play and ultimately impact the outcome of the game.
There was a lot of confusion in the answers, so here's some rules I've interpreted from the NFHS rules: A legal snap must leave the centers hands and either handed directly to the qb in a clean manner (if the QB is under center) or in the direction of a player in a position in the backfield to receive the snap (shotgun/pistol/etc...), otherwise you have an illegal snap (same as a false start). A forward handoff IS possible and IS legal (though it does have consequences, like it is considered a forward pass when considering a second pass for illegal forward pass violations), but to forward handoff to any offensive lineman, the lineman must first turn around, square his shoulders, and face his own endzone. After he does that, he may receive a forward handoff. A lineman can take a backward handoff at any time. So with those rules in place, there is no way you can 'center sneak' in any level of football. The closest you can come is to backward handoff to a pulling guard, or something like that.

often referring to college football, it means that the player was a walk on tryout, and did not receive a scholarship to play but attends the college, and tried out for the team
No, whether in Basketball or Football, a player may not step out of bounds and receive the ball. However, once another player touches the ball, other than the one currently holding the ball, that player may receive the ball.

In flag football, any player on the offensive team is eligible to receive a pass, provided they are not the player who snapped the ball. This typically includes running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends. Quarterbacks can also pass to themselves in some leagues. However, players must be behind the line of scrimmage when the ball is snapped to be eligible to receive a pass.
Any player can receive a lateral or more formerly a backward pass. So the player does not need to be an eligilable receiver to receive a backward pass, unlike the rules for a forward pass.
