Teaching the Punt Kick using the Backward Tracking Method – Update!
This book designed for young players will be available in
October 2010 from this website
In Bulletin 9, we looked at the underpinning
principles behind the new book ‘Teaching the Punt Kick using
the Backward Tracking Method’ that describes how to teach
the punt kick in a logical progression emphasizing ‘first order’
core techniques. The ‘first order’ core techniques fundamental
to the skill must be taught first and reinforced into the system
before teaching the peripheral ‘second order’ elements which
are the ‘icing on the cake’.
Here is the skeleton layout of the book.
The skill is taught in two phases with 8 steps in total.
