Skill Instruction Place kickers, tennis players, pitchers, quarterbacks, divers and any other skill position athlete is a candidate for private coaching. Always ask your HS coach for recommendations, they usually know of someone or have a relationship with a particular coach that has been positive. Always ask for references and call people they have worked with in the past. If they refuse you should back off until you confirm their history. You cannot go to a college and pay for instruction from a coach unless it is payment for a camp.
Private lessons are illegal.
In the course of a season HS coaches often have too much to do with not enough staff and the better athletes are neglected for the sake of spending time with the weaker athletes. Private coaching is often the best way to really improve and hone your skills. This may seem like a lot, but you are paying for individualized, expert advice and coaching. Especially if it helps you get a scholarship or into the school of your choice. If this is cost prohibitive, find out what small group instruction costs.
