Your father should not be locking you outside. He is being a jerk when he does that. And your coach should NOT be stepping on your back OR kicking you in the side either. No one should be touching you like that.

I think that you should find the guidance councelor at school and have a conversation with him/her about this.

Doing extra pushups is fine to build strength, but from what you are discribing in the snow and heat, that is not appropriate. Also working out and running laps to build extra stamina is good for you as well. If you do some of this on your own and people see you are taking the initiative, then they will stop picking on you. All athletes need to do different things to keep in shape and build stamina.

What do YOU want, do you like football. Don't do things for father or others, you need to do things that YOU want in life. We do not live our lives for others.
