Football was a competitive team sport played on Earth. The game was played on the high school, collegiate, and professional level. It is also the name of the actual ball used in the sport.
A man wearing a hat promoting the Atlanta Falcons visited the Cetacean Institute in 1986. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home)
In December of 2000 a football game was being shown on the television at a bar in Portage Creek at which Shannon O'Donnell and Henry Janeway found themselves. One team participating in that game was Baylor. (VOY: "11:59")
In 2024, Biddle "B.C." Coleridge asked Benjamin Sisko (who had assumed the identity of Gabriel Bell) if he had ever played football, to which Sisko replied "Baseball, actually". (DS9: "Past Tense, Part II")
Aboard the ECS Fortunate in 2151, Captain Jackson Keene and his first officer, Matthew Ryan, were seen passing a football back and forth to each other with the gravity plating turned off between them, allowing the ball to float freely from one end to the other. Keene quipped that Ryan would not be able to catch the ball if the grav-plating was set at Earth sea level. Ryan retorted that Keene would not be able to toss the ball ten meters on Earth. (ENT: "Fortunate Son")
A Vulcan cultural observer once witnessed a football game, and incorrectly reported that the players are "trying to kill the quarterback". Kov once read this report, and asked Commander Tucker about the details, which he straightened out. (ENT: "Fusion")
In 2375, Kasidy Yates asked a guard in Vic's Las Vegas Lounge if he had been the captain of the football team at a high school in Asheville, North Carolina. The guard admitted that he had "played a little football" in high school. (DS9: "Badda-Bing, Badda-Bang")
