Special Teams University student Kain Anzovino of Fort Erie Ontario just made the team as a long snapper for the Kent State Flashes! Kain came to me last year wanting to work on his form through virtual long snapping lessons.

The weekend of February 16th and 17th Jesse Medrano, the long snapper for the University of Texas San Antonio flew up to freezing cold Minnesota to work with Coach Kyle Stelter. Jesse is the starting long snapper at UTSA and was put on scholarship this past season. He had never had any formal training and taught himself how to snap.

Long Snapping Lesson with Bronson Bruneau
Sunday February 3rd I met up with Bronson Bruneau a junior long snapper from Lakeville MN for our very first long snapping lesson. Bronson is 6'5" 200lbs, which is a great frame for a snapper! I wish I had those genetics!
Like any first lesson I like to warm the student up and then watch them snap for a little while I film and critique to see what we need to be working on. As Bronson started snapping at 12 yards I noticed that he puts good velocity on the ball already with very raw form.

Long Snapping Lesson with Jordan Winegar and Travis Shackleton
Sunday Jan 27th I was able to meet up with freshman long snapper from St. Croix Central High School Jordan Winegar, and Senior long snapper from Baldwin-Woodville High School Travis Shackleton.
Jordan just started attending long snapping lessons last month while Travis has been a student of Special Teams University for 4 years.
Travis was one of my very first students. When I first got started coaching long snappers, the head coach at Baldwin-Woodville High School brought me in to work with a handful of young men that he thought would be good candidates to be his long snappers.

Long Snapping at the Kicking Pow Wow
Monday January 21st I was able to team up with Husted Kicking Coach Brady Beeson to put on a kicking tournament. The idea behind this was to get guys in one place and have some fun while doing a little competition for some prizes.
Brady was able to get some high caliber kickers from the high school level all the way to the arena football level. I was able to bring in 3 of my best long snappers to snap for these guys during their competition.
Since this was just for fun I didn't do a lot of coaching, but I was able to observe some things that I will be able to apply at our next long snapping lesson with all three guys that attended.
