KICKING FOR BEGINNERS

I have spent several summers teaching kids with no previous experience how to kick. Without a doubt, the most successful approach is to keep things as simple as possible. For someone who has never kicked a football before, there are three basic principles to focus on:

Shoe Laces
The point on your foot where contact is made with the ball is critical...


Sweet Spot

Like the ideal point on your foot to make contact with the ball, there is also an ideal spot on a football to hit with your "shoe laces"...


Head Down
This is the last principle, but probably the most critical...

 

I started off my minor league season making 45 yarders consistently. After two months with the Iso-band I have gained 10 yards on my kicks. I am now kicking 55 yarders consistently and the height on the Field goals is awe striking. I tell everyone that Tommy and Doug are the reason for my success. You two have really helped me take my game to the next level. I cannot wait to see what a correct off season work out will do for me for next season!
