Train for muscular strength first, as in squats and deadlifts. Strength is the foundation of every other athletic skill, if you don't have a solid base of this then training the other modalities is going to be much harder and time consuming.
We like the Starting Strength and Stronglifts program around here, but I'm gonna have to recommend the Starting Strength, because that's what I'm doing.

Shoot for a 1 rep max between 1.5x to 2x bodyweight back squat before you start cardiovascular and sprint training, as 1.5x-2x is a general indicator of above average strength.
