SPARTA MEMORIAL PARK FIELD • Sparta, WI
— ALL DAY KICKING & PUNTING CAMP —
ELIGIBILITY:
Middle school and high school age kickers are welcome to attend this camp.
8:30am Check-in
Please arrive at 8:30am on the game field (find our tent) and we get underway at 9am sharp. We’ll be on the field until noon. Campers will get a free camp t-shirt and plenty of hands-on (or should I say, legs-on) instruction. Come prepared to get some kicks and punts in. You’d hate to be unprepared and have to skip kicks because your leg is tired or sore.
THIS IS AN “ALL DAY CAMP”. There is a morning session from 9am-noon and and afternoon session from 12:30 – 3:30pm. The morning will be filled with kicking and punting drills, along with some slow motion filming. Campers will stay at the field and enjoy a boxed lunch (sub, chips, & drink*) and will participate in an on-site film review and evaluation of their morning techniques. Then, our campers will head back out the the field to improve upon their performance. We’ll end the day with a kicking and punting competition that will be fun for all. (*Note: if your child requires a special lunch, please let us know via email)
Our small group drills focus on all aspects of kicking & punting: stance, steps, foot position, follow through (for soccer style or straight on kickers). We’ll work on PATs, field goals, kickoff, and a few specialty kicks, as well. We’ll get novice punters on the right track and experienced punters booming more consistently. We add some competition with other campers to get you kicking opportunities under pressure! It’s our goal to give you new insights and tools to improve your technique, your consistency, distance and game mentality. Regardless of how advanced you are, we guarantee that you will learn valuable insights that improve your game.
I do not teach a singular method to kicking or punting. We find what works and move on from there. Whether you are a beginner or all-conference, campers tell us that there’s a lot to take away from this experience.
Combine t-shirt
We ask our campers to wear the free t-shirt, not only because it’s cooler than any other camp shirt you’ll get this summer, but because we do some filming, and it’s easier to identify which camper we’re looking at for evaluations.
What should you bring to camp?
First and foremost, a great attitude. We won’t hesitate in sending a camper home if they are belligerent or disrespectful to coaches, parents or fellow athletes (and not refund their camp fee). Don’t be “that guy”.
Do bring comfortable workout gear, kicking shoes, and a football that you use in high school (please make an identifying mark on the ball), along with any tees you use. You should also have a jug of water, a snack if necessary, and any additional clothing should the weather be unexpectedly cold or rainy.
What if it rains?
We will have camp — rain or shine. Weather can only delay us. Turf fields offer good footing and no puddles! We will have access to a storm shelter should it be necessary.
What about other camps?
By all means, go to them. Quality repetitions are crucial to your success and competing with other athletes from your area or from across the country gives you a great gauge on your progress. We make it very accessible to get quality learning. Some of what we teach may be different. It’s great for campers to realize that there is not “a single way” to become a successful kicker or punter.
RESERVE YOUR SPOT NOW
We’re not running a 100-kids-on-a-field camp — ours is smaller and more personal (typically 20 campers). We want you to learn — and not worry about scouts. Don’t misunderstand, there may be college recruiters in attendance, BUT we don’t do stat sheets… so you don’t need to worry about attempting new skills. Plain and simple, we train kickers and punters, at any skill level to be better than they were before attending camp so that you can become your school’s “Friday Night Kicker”.
IMPORTANT: If you or your camper gets lost or will be delayed in getting to camp, please text Mike Farley directly at: 262-388-3326. We want to make sure that every camper is safe at camp (as well as to and from the camp site).
