“The aquatic training is second to none, no workout will help your kicking or punting better than this.” “Coach Thompson has developed some of the most effective leg training that will directly improve leg strength speed.”

Chris Onorato- Corpus Christi- AF2

“Coach Thompson notices the little things that make a kick go wrong, and the instant improvement is reassuring for a kicker."

Cameron Broadwell- Rio Grand Valley- AF2

“Coach Thompson will not anyone do less than 100% on the field and in the pool. This results in a rapid difference in leg speed and leg stamina.” “His ability to see what goes wrong during a kick is what makes the difference in your mechanics. The problems are easy to correct. Without this coaching and training I would not be where I am today.”

Jeff Glas- Albany Conquest/Iowa Barnstormers– Arena Football 2

“Coach Thompson’s ability to coach players specific kicking type and body type is an invaluable aspect that he has picked up from Coach Blevins.” “More importantly the method which he coaches is one of simple points, he makes complex and technical changes seem simple to adapt to.”

"I met Coach Matt Thompson, I had less than one season of football experience. After one session he corrected many of my faults which enabled me to become a much better kicker and punter. The following season I converted 100% of my PATs and field goals, as well as being named Special Teams MVP of the year. I also qualified for the National Finals in the Combine Series where I finished in the Top 10 in the country for field goals. Coach Thompson is presently assisting me in the college recruiting process where his knowledge and contacts are opening doors that would have otherwise been closed.I have earned a scholarship at the University of Wyoming with my performance this season"

"Coach Matt Thompson at Elite Kicking Academy has made drastic improvements to my kicking. He taught me several training methods including pool workouts, karate and his own hurdle series. Coach Thompson has increased my power and accuracy using consistent mechanics. He helped me in the recruiting process to get an opportunity to kick for CU without ever playing football before. Best of all, Matt Thompson has been driven to help me achieve my goals."

"Through the past few months I have been working with Matt Thompson and his organization Elite Kicking Academy. He has helped me in all areas of kicking from leg strength and speed to accuracy and length. I was always a average kicker in high school but once I started to kick with Matt I hit a whole new level of kicking. Through the different array of workouts we work on my leg has never been in better shape. I can now compete with some of the top division one kickers. Matt has also helped me tremendously on the recruiting process. I wasn’t sure how to go about talking to college coaches about working to get on their team but Matt was able to explain what needed to be done and when. Also, I felt confident in giving them a letter of recommendation from Matt, considering he knows talent when he sees it." Justin Mihalcin, University of Colorado
