When a football is thrown, it possesses potential energy due to its stored energy from being held above the ground. As it is thrown and moves through the air, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion. The football's total energy is the sum of its potential and kinetic energy.
During a pass, a football's mechanical energy is potential energy. Mechanical energy is "potential" for any object in motion that is not moving itself (the football is displaced by the player).
The energy in a kicked football is kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion. As the football is kicked, it gains kinetic energy due to its movement. Additionally, there may be potential energy in the football if it is kicked from a height or position where gravity plays a role in its motion.
When a football is kicked upward, the main energy transfer occurring is from the kicker's leg muscles to the football. This transfer involves potential energy being converted to kinetic energy as the football gains height due to the force of the kick. Gravitational potential energy is also a factor as the football gains altitude.
When a boy kicks a football, the mechanical energy from his leg muscles is transferred to the football, causing it to move. Some of this energy is converted into kinetic energy as the football gains velocity, while other energy is converted into sound and heat energy due to friction with the ground and air resistance.

In football, potential energy is stored in the ball when it is lifted off the ground before a pass or a kick. When the ball is in motion, it converts this potential energy into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is what allows the ball to travel through the air and upon impact with a player or the ground.

First of all it's kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is when something is in motion. The football would be in motion when it is in the air. It would also have potential energy. Potential energy is when an item is about to have kinetic energy, or when your about to throw the ball. -I'm 12 years old. If whoever posted this question is older than me, that's weird.
