Cost:

1 day   - $199                                  2 days - $299

 
KICKING INSTRUCTION - Saturday July 25th
PUNTING INSTRUCTION - Sunday July 26th
 

*this is a 1-day camp if you are a kicker only or a punter only. Kicker/Punter combination guys should attend both days. Since there are significantly fewer good punters than kickers at the high school level, anyone who wants to go on to play in college should seriously consider learning how to punt.

 

Campers:

Because of staff and time limitations, enrollment will be limited. At our camps we keep the number of campers low in order to ensure plenty of individual attention. Coach to camper ratio is always 1 to 7 or less.

College Showcase:

This 2-hour event will be filmed entirely. Footage will include close up of mechanics and the ball flight of each kick. Statistics will be used for college referral.

Video footage and statistics are instrumental part of the college referral process. When coach Filipovic communicates with college coaches he needs to be able to quickly retrieve video clips and competition numbers out of his files to show them why he thinks a particular athlete would be a great fit for their university.
