SIMILARITY SCORE

Overall match to elite technique

This score is based on a sample athlete. Your score will reflect your actual technique.

79
%

Your drop punt shows strong fundamentals — your approach speed and eye contact with the ball are excellent. The primary gap to elite level is in your ball presentation angle and plant foot placement, both of which are highly coachable with focused repetition.

PHASE BREAKDOWN

ELITE ATHLETE

Ball held with two hands, laces facing outward
Eyes locked on the ball throughout approach
Controlled acceleration into the kick

YOUR TECHNIQUE

Ball held correctly with laces outward
Eyes on ball — good focus
Slight rush in final step — pace increase is strong

DIFFERENCES FOUND

Ball Presentation Angle at Drop

HIGH

Why it matters:

Elite drop punts present the ball at approximately 45° with the laces facing the kicking foot. A vertical presentation causes mis-hits, reduces distance, and creates inconsistent flight paths under pressure.

How to fix it:

Hold the ball in two hands and consciously rotate your wrists so the nose of the ball tilts toward the ground at 45° before you drop. Practice in front of a mirror with stationary drops until the angle becomes automatic.

Plant Foot Placement

MEDIUM

Why it matters:

Your plant foot is landing slightly wider than hip width, which shifts your weight laterally and reduces power transfer through the kick. Elite kickers plant directly beneath the hip on the non-kicking side.

How to fix it:

Place a marker (cone or tape) on the ground during drills to enforce plant foot position. Focus on landing the plant foot pointing straight toward your target — not angled outward.

Follow-Through Height

LOW

Why it matters:

Truncating the follow-through at chest height limits the arc and hang-time of the kick. A full follow-through to eye level increases flight time and accuracy on longer kicks.

How to fix it:

Exaggerate the follow-through in slow-motion practice. Drive your kicking leg up until your toes reach eye level, holding the finish position for a beat before coming back down.

RECOMMENDED DRILLS

Stationary Drop & Check

Ball presentation angle

Stand still and drop the ball repeatedly without kicking. Focus solely on achieving a 45° lace-forward presentation each time. Use a camera phone to review each drop from the front.

Sets/Reps: 3 sets × 20 drops

One-Step Plant Drill

Plant foot accuracy

From a standstill, take one deliberate step and kick over a cone. Concentrate on landing your plant foot directly inside the cone, hip-width from centre. Reset and repeat.

Sets/Reps: 4 sets × 10 kicks each foot

Finish High Follow-Through Drill

Follow-through height

Hold a target (a teammate's outstretched hand at eye level) on your kicking side. Each drop punt must brush the target on the follow-through. This forces full leg extension.

Sets/Reps: 3 sets × 15 kicks

TOP 3 FOCUS POINTS

1

Tilt the ball nose-down at 45° before every drop — this is the single biggest unlock for consistency.

2

Plant your non-kicking foot directly beneath your hip, pointing at the target.

3

Drive the kicking leg all the way to eye level — don't let the follow-through die at chest height.

COACH'S SUMMARY

You're already kicking at a strong 79% match to elite technique — your fundamentals are sound and your approach is controlled. The gap between you and elite level is almost entirely in the ball drop phase. Fix the presentation angle first: everything else — contact quality, distance, and accuracy — will improve as a direct result. You're genuinely close to the next level.
