WATCH THIS ROUTINE (turn on the sound) Like you, I knew nothing about this little 8-year old cheerleader, but what she goes through with her dad is something to behold... and as a kicker, I know you've felt just like she did after messing up when the spotlight was on you (and you felt you let your team down). It would have been so easy to simply hug her, let her cry and walk her off the stage. Instead, dad (her coach) helped her reframe the moment, compose herself, and muster up true courage to try again. And what's interesting to me, is that she didn't exactly nail the first trick back (and man does he help)... but she held tight and then gained rapid fire confidence to finish the rest of her stunts — and after, the pride she must have felt to succeed in front of a cheering crowd — beaming. 🤗 FAILURE IS ONLY an outcome that you allow to stand. It only takes the next try to SUCCEED. Which do you choose? How quickly can you regain your composure when something goes bad? THE THREE B's: • Breathe (in through the nose, out through the mouth 3X) • Bounce (move, jump up and down, feel your athleticism return) • Break (clap your hands, say 3,2,1 go!) ....is a quick way to reset and reframe your situation. You can't fix the past. You can prep for what's next. You can "trick" your brain into believing that the stress you're feeling is NOT fear of failure, but the EXCITEMENT to try... so try, try again. 😇 *** One last thing — unlike Lil' Miss Soy Sauce — who had the entire crowd behind her, you will only half of the crowd behind you... which means MAKE or MISS, you will ALWAYS have someone cheering for you! 🤣 Besides, you said you wanted to be the kicker. So truly ENJOY each opportunity. 🏈 "Hey, hey, hey, hey! This is just for fun." 🤪

Sometimes you are just going to miss a field goal or extra point. You need to have a short memory. Your team may be counting on you in another minute or two. Depend on your confidence and your fundamentals. - Coach Jim
Hello
Hello, my name is Noah Sier, I am a foreign exchange student from Australia attending Lomira high school. I am currently a sophomore but I will be playing my junior year of football at Lomira, I am looking to be the punter for the team but I need some help, I can’t quite get the height and distance I’m looking for. So a friend of mine who’s on this app Aiden Stoffel put me on this app and told me I could get some help with it. I will later make a post with some videos of me punting. I’m really hoping to make a great impact for the football team for the time I am here!

@Noah Sier Welcome to the group Noah. You find yourself in a real quality program at Lomira. Enjoy your time and experiences there! Coach Jim
Sean West - Badger Punter
Sean came to my kicking camp in 2022 and 2023 when he played K & P (and also got playing time at QB and WR) at Homestead High School in Mequon, WI. That's a school of about 1,200 kids with a long tradition of excellence. Sean's a real athlete — played la crosse, too. Sean took lessons from me on his punting and kicking and eventually got a preferred walk-on OFFER from the University of Wisconsin. He spent his first year without an opportunity to play in a game. Just training and getting better while practicing with the team. In his second year, this past Fall, he was the back-up punter to start the season and the #3 kicker. Then, on October 18th (the 7th game of the season), Sean's number was called to be the starting punter against the #1 ranked team in the country, Ohio State — 73,000 fans at Camp Randall. Pressure? You think? 😅 And then, not only does he have a great game punting (despite a thumping loss), he runs a fake punt... not a coach called fake punt — from his end zone — and picks up the first down! Thank goodness! I suspect his punting days might have been taken from him if he didn't make it. 😳 But Sean is a very good athlete and made a tremendous play. • Listen to his post game interview. • Watch his fake punt! • Watch & listen to his 2022 camp evaluation • Watch & listen to his 2023 camp evaluation You may be right where Sean was right now. Are you willing to put in the work that Sean did? Sean's a great guy and will be seeking all three specialist positions this upcoming season (place kicker, kick off specialist & punter)! Think he can do it?

That was about the only bright spot in that game...you can tell Sean is a good athlete from that video. Coach Jim
K&P S&C Mini Series Pt. 1 INTENDED ADAPTATIONS!
Hey Guys! I'll be starting a mini series here where I post short informational videos about performance training for kicking and punting. In part 1 we are talking about our intended adaptations (WHAT ARE WE TRAINING FOR?) To me there are 3 that stand out: 1. Control/Stability 2. Mobility 3. Power We need to consider these things, or whatever specific adaptation you are looking for, before we begin to lay out a plan for our training. In part 2 we will talk more specifically about what it takes to to gain these adaptations! Hope these help you guys out! And like always, feel free to reach out with any questions. God Bless

Glad there are professionals like you to help out the kicking specialists!
NCAA... Listen to Coach Calipari
I bring you all of this NIL stuff (when kickers and punters are at the bottom of the food chain) because it IS THE NEW REALITY of college sports. EVERY level is affected by the choices (or lack thereof) that the NCAA is making simply to save their own skins. If they are in it for the athletes, then they have the power to alter the NEW RULES to become GOOD RULES. This rant by John Calipari, the Arkansas BASKETBALL coach, should be law. It's basically what I believe. We are NOT there yet, but I think, smarter minds will eventually get there. I need high school players who think they want to play in college, active college players and all of their parents to begin to see how this GAME works... and how it most likely WILL WORK.

@Mike Farley Coach Mike- Yep. You nailed it. It USED to be the Reward was playing a game you loved, and having your schooling paid for at the D1 level. Getting that college Degree was paramount. For your post college life, you need to work for the next 40-45 years before you can retire. Those that make the pros, usually have a very short career, about 4 years for most. Those that play at the D3 level like you and I did, you will need to have a job during the season and summers just to survive. Whatever you all decide to do, please put your schooling first, and become a productive member of society. Enjoy the sport you play to the fullest, for the relationships you make are life fulfilling. Now go "win every day!" - Coach Jim
