At Pro Kicking Academy, we do not take the cookie cutter approach to kicking and punting! Too many so-called kicking coaches attempt to make you kick or punt one way. Their way. We pride ourselves in the fact that we recognize that each Kicker and Punter is an individual. An individual possessing different strengths and weaknesses, with varying degrees of athleticism. Which is why a couple of years ago, 3 of the 4 Kickers and Punters competing in the NFL Pro Bowl were products of Doug Blevins Kicking & Punting!
The bottom line is a simple concept to grasp. It is our goal as an organization to help you become the very best Kicker and or Punter that you can possibly be! |

Premier Kicking [Marc Feuerbach]
Read more about Premier Kicking
Marc Feuerbach is the director of Premier Kicking and he has a deep love for the kicking game. He grew up in Coral Springs, FL and played club soccer his entire youth and early teenage years. After giving football a chance in high school, he decided to stay with it but turn his attention to becoming a full time kicker. Although he got into kicking a little late, Marc was still 2nd team all state kicker his senior year and turned down numerous opportunities to play Division II football because he wanted to pursue his goal of playing Division I football. In college, he met NFL kicking coach Doug Blevins and began to train under him. He was given the opportunity to walk on at Florida State University, but a sudden leg injury hindered his ability and Marc withdrew from the university. Before re-enrolling at the University of Florida to finish his college degree, Marc spent the semester working with Coach Blevins training different high school, college, and professional kickers. It was here that he was truly able to learn from the best in the business. After graduating from college, Marc accepted a job at Gordon Central High School in Calhoun, GA where he teaches special education, and used to coach special teams and tight ends. After taking a few years off of kicking, he decided to give it another shot and was named the starter for the 2005 Atlantic Conference Champions Rome Renegades of the National Indoor Football League. A second sudden leg injury in his career put Marc on the injured reserve for the remainder of the season.
Through his two injuries, Coach Feuerbach thanks God for the coaching lessons and opportunities that have risen from the both of them. He feels without the injuries, he would not have learned or gained the experience that makes him the coach he is today. He has been there as one trying to pursue a dream and knows the do's and dont's of the business. He is not in this business to make a quick dollar, but to teach you the fundamentals of kicking/punting and help you reach the next level. It is his goal to help you achieve your full potential as both a kicker/punter and as an individual. |

As a senior, after three punt snaps (in one game) over his head, Lance became the team's deep snapper while serving as the backup placekicker both years.
In 1995, Lance was one of the founders of ABCD Kicking Camps (With NFLers Evan Arapostathis, Darren Bennett, John Carney, and Brad Daluiso). There would be no San Diego School of Football without ABCD.
