Here's my recommendation for the whole activity entry:

Title: The name of your school's football team

Position/leadership: JV Team Captain

Description example: Led JV team during games, ran practices, and motivated team members to persevere and work together. (The goal here is to describe your responsibilities with action verbs - definitely change this example or add more responsibilities!)

Hope this helps!
