I have a had a situation or two somewhat similar to this. What I have learned to use to guide decisions like this is "Do what makes you happy, and forget everyone who tells you otherwise." It sounds to me like you aren't particularly happy with football, and doing something else would make you happy.

As for getting a job, where would you put FIRST on your resume? I list my FIRST experience as work experience and I would encourage you to do the same.

Getting a job would provide you with spending money, and hopefully some savings. However, focusing on your team and FIRST may give you more opportunities to better your team and your community, not to mention the experience you would gain.
