📍 Skyridge Falcons·Friday, July 17, 2026·FridayNightPulse Insider
At the top 6A programs like Skyridge Falcons, kicking specialists are constantly looking for ways to improve their accuracy. One drill that has shown promise is the '3-Step Drop' drill. This drill focuses on proper footwork and balance. Start by having the kicker stand behind the ball, then take three small steps back while keeping their eyes on the target. As they step back, they should drop their plant foot and transfer their weight onto it. Repeat for 3 sets of 10 reps. Coaching cues include 'keep your eyes on the target' and 'transfer your weight onto your plant foot.' This drill translates to game performance by improving the kicker's ability to maintain balance and focus under pressure.
