Krautman Kicking Techniques

Field Goal Kicking

Master approach consistency, plant foot positioning, foot-to-ball contact, and trajectory control to produce reliable field goals under pressure.

Kickoffs

Train explosive, controlled aggression with smooth, rhythmic steps that stay under control while generating maximum power. Refine approach timing, ball placement, contact position, and follow-through to produce consistent depth, hang time, and direction in live-game situations.

Punting

Develop clean drops, small controlled punting steps, improved hang time, directional accuracy, and efficient swing mechanics that translate directly to game performance.

Long Snapping

Refine spiral consistency, velocity, accuracy, and timing to create dependable operation from snap to kick.

Focus

Build mental discipline, routine development, and composure so performance remains steady under pressure.

Technique

Every movement is broken down and rebuilt with precision — from footwork and posture to tempo and follow-through.

Results

Structured progression leads to measurable improvement, increased confidence, and performance that stands up in competition.

The Krautman Kicking Philosophy

At Krautman Kicking, we develop more than specialists we develop disciplined, mentally tough young men.

Coach Ricky Krautman believes kicking and punting are not just skills to be trained, but disciplines that shape character. Every session is designed to build focus, resilience, confidence, and composure under pressure. Athletes learn how to respond to adversity, how to handle competition, and how to hold themselves to a higher standard both on and off the field.

But the most important priorities in our program are clear:
Academics come first. Family comes first. Character comes first.

Why Krautman Kicking?

The Krautman Difference

At Krautman Kicking, development comes first, but so does the athlete as a person. Coach Ricky Krautman brings a professional standard to every session, but he also understands that behind every specialist is a family investing time, energy, and trust. Training is structured, detailed, and intentional. Athletes don’t just take reps they learn how to practice with purpose, build confidence, and understand their own mechanics. This program is built on accountability, technical precision, and long-term growth. This program is not just quick fixes.

What truly sets Krautman Kicking apart is the personal connection.

Coach Ricky is accessible and involved. When parents call, he answers. When athletes have questions, he responds. Communication is open, honest, and direct because families deserve clarity and support throughout the development process.
