Hi Luciana, and welcome to English Forums.
1. Vicent, You need an article
2. Luciana, it's okay to say either "the football" or "the ball" but "the football" tells you more information - it tells you what kind of ball.
3. It's also natural to say "They were kicking the ball around." That means the were just playing with it, passing it back and forth
