However, with continued kicking instruction from a high level specialized kicking coach like Coach Brent, your kicking performance will be taken to a whole new level!

What Sets Us Apart

We believe that in order to provide the best instruction available, it is imperative to offer one-on-one personalized instruction. Some companies hire several kids to teach their kicking lessons and kicking camps for summer work, but we are made up of one owner who is a successful kicker and who oversees the entire Kicking World operation. Kicking World is our career, not just a weekend job, and we commit 100% to making it an efficient and respected service for kickers and punters who want to excel and become the best. Kicking World Owner, Brent Grablachoff takes great pride in his work and has a genuine interest in advising his students on becoming better kickers & punters as well as responsible young men.

He likes to begin working with his students as young as 7 years old so that he can help them perfect their technique at a young age to greater improve their chances of being a college starter and ultimately playing professionally as they strengthen and mature mentally and physically. We don't stop at kicking lessons and kicking camps; in order to take you to the next level we will guide you through the steps to getting a college scholarship or pro tryout. We include professional guest speakers (former and current NFL and NCAA Football Players, Coaches, and Scouts) at our kicking camps who discuss everything from how to maximize your college exposure to how to get a full-ride scholarship to how to get a private professional tryout. If you choose to schedule private kicking and/or punting lessons with us, you will work exclusively with Coach Brent and will receive expert, professional, and customized kicking instruction based on your individual needs. Our objective is to help you reach your goals in the quickest and most efficient manner with integrity, hard work, and a definitive plan to help get us there; customized for YOU.

BIO

After a successful collegiate career, Grablachoff had professional kicking tryouts, but ultimately landed on Wall Street. The first few years after college, Brent was a private wealth advisor at a large investment firm. While doing this, he continued to coach kickers and punters on the weekends and at night after work. After 3 years in the investment world he was re-affirmed that kicking was his true calling. He quit his 'corporate job' and moved from the "Jersey Shore" to Orange County, California to focus exclusively on coaching kickers and punters and conducting kicking camps throughout Southern California and grow what is now known as Kicking World. After a lot of hard work and dedication, Kicking World has now become one of the most recognized Kicking Camps and Personalized Kicking & Punting Instruction providers not only in Southern California, but across the United States.

When Coach Brent is not conducting a kicking lesson or a kicking camp, he is training to become a professional kicker. Brent realized that giving up on a dream is a sure way to living a life full of regret, speculation, and a life filled with the "what ifs." He took some time off from kicking after college. Taking the few years off after college has greatly strengthened his body, mind, and mental toughness. He now fully realizes that football needs to be in his life and his goal is to play professionally.

Something he heard from a friend one day really shook him up: Pointing to some flowers in the ground, "One day we are all going to be just a bunch of flowers (meaning in a grave)... Do what you want to do and don't hold back... GO FOR IT." Since that day, Brent Grablachoff has committed 100% to making his Dream of becoming a professional kicker, a Reality. He continues to improve Kicking World by re-educating himself, providing updated content on KickingWorld.com, and staying ahead of the latest trends and techniques available for kicker and punters. Coach Brent hopes to reach as many students as possible and will continue to provide the highest level of personalized kicking instruction available today.

Brent Grablachoff offers private kicking lessons and kicking camps throughout the United States. He is available for consulting, seminars, kicking camps, and private kicking and punting lessons.
