Our coaching is a proven, intensive pathway built on four key pillars:
Prokick Australia exists to coach talented athletes toward the incredible opportunity of playing college football in America, while earning a world-class university education that opens doors long after football. We've coached numerous athletes from AFL level, down to high school students.
We coach discipline, drive, and responsibility. We believe talent must be matched with character, and we prepare the total athlete, physically and mentally, for the world stage of college football and what it truly takes to thrive in university and life beyond.
The punt is just the beginning. The right way takes time. Every athlete is invited after an initial expression of interest, a skills and mindset assessment, and alignment with our values. We seek those who are committed and ready to play the long game.
Our athletes come from all over, and they end up all over.
From small towns and major cities across Australia, to athletes from the U.S. New Zealand and Ireland, Prokick Australia has become a truly global coaching pathway. Our athletes move on to U.S. colleges and, for those with the skill and drive, professional opportunities in the NFL, CFL, and beyond.
What starts as a punt can become a life-changing career. Our results travel, because our athletes do.
You don’t just join Prokick, you earn your place!
Every athlete is invited following a skills and mindset assessment (tryout), academic assessment and alignment with our values. We look for commitment, not just talent. Athletes ready to invest in the long game, on and off the field.
It’s not for everyone. It’s for those willing to earn it.
You should expect to be tested mentally and physically and pushed to your limits within this program.
We will break down the mechanics and technique required and assist you in developing your body to handle the physical demands of college football. We will also work with you to ensure you are mentally prepared for the stresses within the program and on moving to the US.
Our program covers all the areas needed for you to get a shot at the big time. Each skill has different aspects to master. Punting Kicking Holding
You will be coached and train approximately 3+ days per week on kicking/punting and be re required to commit to our full-time strength program (ideally 6 days) to support your progress and performance.
You will be required to maintain a high level of kicking and fitness/physical standards.
Having the ability to play college football is one thing but having the academic eligibility to be enrolled into college is another. Talk to us today about how we can find the pathway that suits your personal situation.
We can place guys into college who have completed yr 12; we can place guys into college who have left school but NOT completed yr 12; we can place guys into college that are currently at university here in Australia. We can NOT place guys into a US College at Div 1 and 1AA levels who have done more than 4 yrs of university here in Australia (if you were a full time student).
Please be prepared to get your academic transcripts for us to see, including yr 9-12 reports and any university transcripts you may have. Once we have your academics and you have had a kicking or punting assessment, we can then discuss a pathway moving forward.
Joining Prokick Australia is via INVITATION ONLY. If you are invited to join you will be representing Prokick and Australia when it comes to your character and performance in the classroom and on the field.
Character is everything.
To be college eligible you will need to be currently completing yr 12 or have finished yr 12. Your grades from yr 9-12 will be of importance therefore you will need to keep on top of your academic work as it can impact on the type of college you can go to.
If you have started university, we can work with you in transferring your education through scholarship if you have the punting talent colleges are seeking. Eligibility time limits may apply here in this situation.
If you have NOT completed yr 12 and have left school to start a trade then there is still hope! We will guide you through the process to gain entry back into college and be eligible for a scholarship..
Our entrusted academic adviser with over 15 years of experience will work with students to ensure all paperwork is completed for both the NCAA and individual colleges.
Make your way to a brighter academic/ sporting future by joining Prokick Australia, where you will need to train hard and study hard in order to prepare yourself for a college career. Our results speak for themselves.
When attending a college in the US, you will be either a WALK-ON or a SCHOLARSHIP athlete.
WALK-ON athletes pay their way for any expense involved with attending the university. Walk-ons have the chance to gain a scholarship once they are at college but this depends on performance and opportunity.
What does a US football SCHOLARSHIP look like? Being offered a scholarship at any level; D1A, 1AA, 2, NAIA, or Junior College, is an achievement and scholarships can come in many forms:
A full ride, which includes tuition, books, accommodation and food, can have a value upwards of $250,000 (D1A scholarships are all full rides).
A partial scholarship may include tuition and books but athletes may need to pay for food and housing. This will vary depending on the college.
Prokick Australia has FULL RIDE scholarships offered for high number of its athletes.
Prokick Australia has so far saved Australian families tens of millions of dollars in academic fees by placing students into US colleges on FULL SCHOLARSHIPS. Our elite training program will develop most students into college-ready punters.
So far our coaching has enabled over 250 punters to be placed into US Colleges, with a high percentage of those being on full scholarship. These scholarships are a fantastic way for Australians to enter the USA while staying in school, furthering their education and giving them an experience that may lead to the NFL, CFL, or other professional ranks.
Prokick Australia aims to develop student athletes; this makes your high school grades vitally important and parents and students need to plan for this early.
💰 Earn income while competing in college
🎓 In addition to scholarships
📈 Opportunities vary by athlete and university
🏈 Available across NCAA college athletics
For eligible student-athletes, the opportunity to attend a US university may extend beyond an athletic scholarship.
Under Name, Image & Likeness (NIL) rules, college athletes can earn income from their personal brand while competing in the NCAA. This may include sponsorships, endorsements, social media partnerships, personal appearances, coaching clinics and other commercial opportunities.
For Australian athletes, NIL can become an additional financial benefit while studying and competing in the United States. However, opportunities vary significantly based on the athlete, university, market, performance and personal brand.
At Prokick Australia, our focus is on helping athletes earn opportunities at the right university, maximise their athletic and academic potential, and build a foundation for long-term success. For some athletes, that journey may also include meaningful NIL opportunities.
Prokick Australia’s Junior Pathway Program (JPP) is designed to give aspiring members of the full-time Prokick Australia coaching program the opportunity to train on a part-time basis, focusing on the development of the key skills required to become a punter/kicker, while remaining committed to their schooling and other existing responsibilities.
You may be offered to join the Pathway Program for a variety of reasons, including (but not limited to):
