Kicking it Up a Notch: Weddington Warriors' Kicker Prep Drill
📍 Weddington Warriors·Monday, July 20, 2026·FridayNightPulse Insider
As the 3A season approaches, kickers at programs like the Weddington Warriors are gearing up for a strong performance. To improve their accuracy and power, we've got a drill that's sure to make an impact. The 'Kicker's Ladder' drill involves setting up three ladders with 5 rungs each, spaced 3 yards apart. Kicker starts at the first ladder, makes 3 kicks from 20 yards out, then moves to the next ladder and repeats. After completing all three ladders, rest for 2 minutes and repeat for 3 sets. Coaching cues include: 'Knee drive, follow through, and focus on the target.' This drill translates to game performance by improving kicker's ability to make adjustments on the fly and build endurance for longer games.
