Mike Toole of Anime News Network felt that the story was not as melodramatic as Ikki Kajiwara's Ashita e Free Kick, but that it was well researched and had good artwork. He concluded that "Football Hawk would be the most successful stab at [American football]'s depiction in manga for quite some time".[5]
