Are left footed footballers also left handed?

[albatros]

Just wondering after a conversation with DP earlier, he said no but I think there might be a link

No. My DH is right-handed but left-footed!

Thats blown my theory out of the water

My dh is left handed, but bats (cricket) right handed.

My dh is left footed, plays cricket left handed but is right handed.

my ds(12) is left handed and left footed

Ds1 is right-handed but left-footed.
Ds2 is left-handed but right-footed.

theoreticaly it makes sense

Doesn't it?

I am right handed but play table tennis left handed

nope!
I am lefthanded for writing, but tennis (plus any racquet sport), throwing balls, most other things I'm righthanded for. And I can only kick properly with my right foot

My ds (8) is left handed & footed.

Some are, but others are right handed. But some may still play guitar left handed but actually be right handed and others may be the other way round.

DS left footed for football. Right handed for tennis and writing. I am left handed for writing but right handed for tennis - and would kick a ball with right foot though as I get older and less sporty I sometimes can't remember which foot/hand to use!
