I've been average at both types of football I played (Australian Rugby League and Soccer); I was good for getting the ball further up the court for the former, and for the latter I was very good at stealing the ball from the opposing team when it had been kicked down court and holding it until a good player could score with it.
My sport was always Dodgeball, and I only ever lost 1 match; it was a freeform dodgeball game without any boundaries, and I got hit by force while leaning over a stage (you have to remember that I was and am still a weak and skinny little prick), fell and landed on my wrist. Didn't even get it seen to for a whole week before I found out it was a proper fracture.
