Coach Filipovic is the owner and the head coach of The Kicking Coach. Since starting the company in 2007, he has been coaching kickers from all levels of football…from NFL pro bowl kickers to young kickers learning the fundamentals of kicking. He started kicking in 1993 and went from high school kicker to college kicker, to an NFL kicker. During his 30 years in the world of kicking, he made many connections with college and NFL coaches. Coaching kickers and punters is what he was born to do – growing up playing soccer and attending competitive tennis academies, kicking at all levels of football, and obtaining a degree in education. Coach Filipovic’s coaching method is based on getting to know athletes and their tendencies, guiding them to become more efficient with their kicking and their training, and continue to push them until they become their best self.

” My passion is pursuit of greatness. What I learned from my personal journey is that there are infinite ways that an athlete can gain an edge and reach an elite level. Opportunities to do things a little better are everywhere. You can start thinking in a way that will make yourself mentally tougher. You can learn how to compete better. You can always train harder and smarter. You can rest better. Essentially, an athlete that commits himself to a relentless pursuit of kicking greatness will find a way to improve, and his journey will always be a successful one. ” Coach Filipovic
