Brent Grablachoff

Owner & Coach

Coach Brent Grablachoff is the Owner & Head Coach of Kicking World and provides year-round kicking and punting lessons in Texas. He is originally from Island Heights, NJ (near Toms River & Seaside Heights, aka the Jersey Shore), and moved out to Southern California in 2007 to build Kicking World, where he lived in Irvine & Laguna Hills before spending almost a decade in San Diego. He would go to Texas several times a year while living in San Diego, where there was a very warm reception and high demand for his expertise from Texans. His dad graduated from North Texas in Denton, so he always heard great memories about living in Texas. After a few more exploratory trips, Brent finally moved to Austin, TX, in 2017 to further grow Kicking World, give our large base of Texas students consistent year-round training, and be centrally located for camp travel & flights.

He offers year-round private kicking & punting lessons in Austin, TX (daily in Cedar Park, just 25 minutes north of Downtown Austin) and occasionally in Dallas (Grapevine). We have another coach who does daily lessons in Houston, TX. Coach Brent travels to over 60% of the Kicking World camps nationwide, and we have several camps in Texas. He can also be available for travel out of state (see ‘travel lessons’ at the bottom of this page). Brent Grablachoff has coached over 16,000 specialists and has over 19 years of experience helping specialists improve & perfect their craft!

Frequently asked Questions (FAQs)

Where & When do the lessons take place?

Under the ‘Availability’ section above we list the general city/region that your coach offers lessons in. After completing the lesson registration process (you can put in notes with preferred weeks/days) you’ll receive an email from us soon after sign up with your coach’s contact information so you can discuss logistics, scheduling & exact meeting location (we typically utilize local high school football fields). If you have any issues connecting with your coach after 72 hours of completing the registration, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

How long are the sessions?

Private Lessons (1 on 1) are 45 minutes or 1 hour long depending on the coach. You may also ‘double’ up the session to make it 1.5 hours or 2 hours (recommended for first-time students and/or for those traveling from further away).

How do the lesson payments work?

To get started sooner we recommend you pay for 1 or 2 lessons and you’ll receive an introductory email shortly after registration. The coach will be in touch within 72 hours to get a date on the calendar. You are able to begin registration without payment but it makes it a bit more tedious later on so we ask you to commit to at least 1 session to show you’re ready to go. If for some reason you still have questions after reading our very detailed website and FAQs section and would like to talk with Coach first you can proceed without payment and a coach will be in touch.

What are small group lessons all about?

Some coaches also have small group lessons (1-hour sessions) which are limited to 6 to 8 students at a time. Participants in these sessions must have attended at least (2) KW camp(s) and/or (2) private lessons with us in the last 12 months and be familiar with Kicking World’s coaching concepts & drills. These sessions are planned sporadically throughout the year. We send out regional lesson email updates a few times a year, so make sure you’re subscribed to be in the loop.

What’s the weather policy?

All lessons are on rain or shine, hot or cold. In cases of extreme weather (lightning, heavy rain, freezing cold, triple digit temps, etc) your coach may contact you to look at rescheduling to a different day and/or an earlier or later time to work around weather.

Is there a lesson cancellation policy?

Yes. We honor a 24-hour cancellation policy which means you must provide your Coach a minimum of 24 hours notice for a cancellation or you will be charged for the full lesson fee. And as a courtesy, we kindly ask that you give us at least 3 days notice for any cancellation or time/date change so that we can rearrange our schedule as needed. For Small Group Lessons there are no refunds or transfers. For out of state lessons and travel lessons you will be charged for the full lesson fee for any cancellations or changes.

What if the coach is too far from me?

You may view our coaching staff and their locations under the Lessons Find a Coach page. If no coaches are near you, or it’s just not practical and a bit too far of a travel distance, we have some other options. You can fly out to train with Kicking World owner – Coach Brent in Austin, Texas (kicking and/or punting only - no long snapping) for his Texas Experience package (a few different sessions over 2-3 days at his normal lesson rate), or bring him to you for Travel Lessons (2-3 days minimum with flight, hotel, and car rental expenses covered, plus a daily training fee). Lastly, we have excellent instructional videos & books in our online shop, as well Coach Brent offers virtual lessons and a recruiting tips phone call.

Testimonials

  • I’m glad I chose to go to Kicking World over any other camps. I hope the younger kickers see how Kicking World actually cares about your development as a kicker/punter. It means a lot that you took the time to message with me and spend time teaching me proper techniques at the camps and private lessons. Thanks to you and the staff for helping turn me into a college kicker and punter!

  • Coach Brent, thank you again for giving Erick such a great experience in his 3 days of 1-on-1 lessons with you in Austin, TX. He learned so much about the proper kicking form and establishing a plan of attack toward his kicking improvement. Thanks for your guidance and patience in working with him. You provided a relaxing yet motivational experience. Both Erick & I hope to see you in future camps. Good luck & thanks.

  • Our experience with Coach Brent Grablachoff has been great. Our son, Tanner, has taken private lessons, attended camp, and recently flew to Austin for the Texas Kicking Experience. Coach Brent’s close attention to detail, the teaching of mechanics, kicking drills, and the mental game of kicking have taken Tanner to the next level. During our visit, Coach Brent was sure to have a backup plan for the inclement weather, which was much appreciated. When Coach Brent found out we would be visiting a college campus, he helped arrange a meeting with that college’s football coach and recruiting department, and it was an amazing visit! Our overall experience with Kicking World has been phenomenal for Tanner and us as his parents. If you want to increase your kicking/punting skills, Kicking World is the place to go.
