SCOPE
of the 
KICKING GAME

Winning the Hidden Yardage Battle

Special Teams are as vital a part of the game as offense or defense. The Kicking Game can provide the "Winning Edge" when every player and coach on the team wholeheartedly believes in its importance to the goal of victory. An examination if statistics confirms the importance of the kicking game. For example, 20%-30% of all plays are kicking plays. Furthermore, 30% of all points scored come from special team plays. In fact, in a 10-game season, there will be approximately 90 big plays that involves special teams for or against. Finally, large chunks of field position are gained or lost during kicking plays.

Every Special Team play involves big yardage, momentum, or scoring (sometimes all 3) in the same play. Therefore, it behooves the coach to make Special Teams SPECIAL.

PERFECT PRACTICE
PREVENTS
POOR PERFORMANCE

$20.00

Details, in the kicking game, are so much more evident in the first three weeks of the football season whether in high school, college or the NFL. It is apparent that the statement by John Wooden says it all, “It’s the little details that are vital. Little things make big things happen!” Let’s look at a key point that can help Special Teams execution as the season continues.

TRAIN the BEHAVIORS Which You Want to Show Up on Game Day! Things do not happen by chance. If it is something that you expect to see when you click on the film on the day after the game, do not be surprised if it is not there because instead of training it, again and again, it was talked about and assumed as understood.

Coach Cieri, Special Teams Coordinator at the Montclair State University – 10th Winningest D3 Football Program in NCAA’s History – is very detailed in his approach covering everything from scheme and technique to drills necessary for skill building and unit success!
