Class of 2021 College Commitments

 We are very proud and excited to announce our Class of 2021 'College Bound' Special Teams Football Academy students. 

As our 10th year of training athletes comes to a close, I am very blessed to have been able to train so many kickers, punters and long snappers over these last 10 years.  This is our biggest class of Seniors that I and our staff have helped train.

We are proud to announce our 'college bound' student athletes from the Class of 2021.  This list will continue to grow as we add more commitments.

• Andrew Titecombe (K/P)- Eastview HS (MN)- University of Minnesota-Duluth (D2)
• Brian Knudslien (P)- Blaine HS (MN)- Minnesota State University Moorhead (D2)
• Cory Gouline (K)- East Ridge HS (MN)- University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire (D3)
• Ramon Sotelo (LS)- Blaine HS (MN)- Kentucky State U (D1)
• More to be added soon...

Updates:

We've also had a number of kickers/punters/long snappers that have attended our camps across the USA that have earned a college football opportunity and we are happy to be a part of their skill development and collegiate recruiting process!

• More to be added soon...

We have a Top Notch Coaching Staff (in the Midwest) with experience that ranges from NFL training to elite Collegiate Careers, that are here to train you and that have developed a reputation as the 'Go To' training organization in the Midwest.

Trainees continuing a sports career in college in another sport:

• More to be added soon...

A Special Teams Football Academy student of ours, is one that we actively train and/or help with the college recruiting process.  All of these athletes have been a part of the Special Teams Football Academy program between 3 months to 7 years.  We value the loyalty we get from our athletes and parents and the opportunities and results we have been able to help produce for them.

We believe that no athlete is the same.  We train each specialist individually to bring out their strengths and maximize their abilities.

Last year, we helped find 83% of our Class of 2020 specialists an opportunity to play college football (even if they ended up choosing another sport to play or not continuing on).

Thank you for your trust in training your athlete!

Special Teams Football Academy going Full Time

I am excited to announce that I will be taking Special Teams Football Academy full time and try to turn a passion into a career. Over the years I've realized a calling to coach, help mentor and influence the lives of young athletes, and now seems like the right time.  I just wanted to thank all of you parents, athletes, coaches, mentors and friends who have helped, supported, pushed me, and gave me feedback over the years.

I'm excited for this move on so many levels.  There have been many things I've wanted to do over the years with this Academy, but time just didn't allow.  

I will have various announcements coming to you all soon as I better lay the foundation for STFA.  There will be new & improved programs in place so I that I am more able to help you in your training and recruiting efforts on more of a consistent basis.

My goal is to be able to travel more and be more accommodating to our specialists in the WI, ND, SD, IA and greater MN areas and bring training closer to you as well, and have more hours available for training.

If you have any questions, ideas or comments, please feel free to reach out to me.  Thank you all for your ongoing support over the years.
