Sports International hosts Kicking & Punting Camps all over the country for players ages 10-21.  These camps give each participant personalized instruction in the disciplines of kicking & punting.  Each camp has a top current and/or former NFL player in each position that works with the players to share the knowledge they have obtained in the professional arena.  In addition, the staff is rounded out with specialized college coaches, high school coaches, and former college kickers & punters at the top of their field.  In order to help each participant reach their fullest potential we provide them with the proper kicking & punting techniques.  If you are trying to get an edge at your position this camp is for you.

• Participants will receive coaching from instructors who have experience in college and/or professional football.
• Individual instruction in kickoffs, field goal kicking, punting, flexibility and stretching are available.
• Observe demonstrations by specialists at the top of their field during technique sessions.
• Practice and compete with other talented athletes.  Being able to compare skills is a valuable learning experience.  Learn to thrive and survive in pressure situations.
• At our camps we work with each individual to answer any questions they may have and ensure participants are working to their maximum potential.  We hope to educate our participants so they will be able to coach themselves.
