58 is pretty good, why only 1 year?

In high school they could use a small tee in LA when I was in school. Gives you a little distance

It’s still allowed. None of the national kicking coaches want you to use it...but they’re always on turf or really nice fields. They want my 8th grader to stop using his 1/2 inch one, and he kicks fine without it...just not as high. Guess it’ll come.

I only played my senior year because the coach came ask me the day before camp to come kick for him. I just played baseball so I figured it be something fun to do for the fall

That’s impressive. I’ve never seen a baseball player kick a ball. Not much crossover between baseball and soccer. Usually either/or.

My son plays football>soccer>track....baseball players play baseball at his school. The AD is the baseball coach, he wants commitment.

I played soccer til I was in 8th grade, also I lived right next to the football field so my friends and I would bull shite all the time. The coach was on the track when I kicked a 50 yearder barefoot around my sophmore year, so he was just waiting until he needed me I guess

I always snuck my son onto his school’s field, and one day the AD came out there to tell us he had to lock the gate. My son kept kicking while we talked. He made a 50 yarder and the AD turned to me and said that was from 50. Yup...what grade is he in? 6th.

He played QB1 through jr high, and really didn’t get to kick much.

There is no arguing. I actually looked up the field dimensions and applied them to where she kicked it from, and where it landed. Both spots were by a line so it was easy.


Again was it NEARLY A FULL FIELD KICK or NEARLY A HALF FIELD KICK. A college soccer field is 120 yards long. That should help you.

You never saw Chris Jackson kick at LSU? Not to mention the baseball players who punted at LSU
