WHATS DIFFERENT ABOUT US?

The National Specialists Showcase is an off season showcase designed to help determine how strong a specialists skills are in critical areas despite ranking by any other kicking agency. There are no requirements to attend other events to be ranked high or and qualifiers. It’s an open competition designed to test the mettle of specialist who aim to kick in college. It’s the only kicking competition in the country run by actual college kickers who are currently on scholarship or who have recently graduated. This ensures that all attendees are training and competition with the most up to date specialist drills possible.

Increasingly, these off season evaluations and camps are being weighed heavier in the recruiting process. It’s like taking a standardized academic test. While they aren’t the true measure of ability, they are a good indication and colleges, recruiting services and scouts are using them to draw conclusions about your athlete.

Overall, the opportunity to compete with some of the best athletes in your high school graduation class and earn the title of best at your position is a resume boosting experience that can empower young athletes with confidence.
