![]() “Our family could not thank Chris Koepplin enough for the time, energy and enthusiasm he brought every time he trained our son Ryan Norton. Chris created a great, professional environment from the first session he had in the summer of 2010 all the way through when Ryan left for college and still to this day. He is a talented teacher who has always been able to meet Ryan at every phase of his kicking journey and help push him forward and progress to the next level.
One of Chris’ greatest strengths is his ability to mentor. He not only taught Ryan the fundamentals of kicking, but guided my husband and I through the recruiting process. He used his own personal kicking career to help create a personalized plan to gain exposure for Ryan with colleges. Ryan, with the help of Chris, signed with Syracuse University in 2012. We are so fortunate to have had Chris Koepplin and we wish him much continued success. - Michael and Kristen Norton, Parents of Ryan Norton, Syracuse University Kicker 2011 All State, 1st Team All-Metro, 1st Team All Long Island for Garden City HS Koepplin Kicking Client since 2010 "Chris Koepplin helped teach me the fundamentals to start and honed my skills as I progressed. Once I began to get an understanding of how everything fit together within my technique, he would teach me how to tweak the things I was doing wrong. Without Chris I wouldn't be where I am today. Thanks for all your help.” - Ryan Norton ![]() "Chris Koepplin is not only a great kicker but a great teacher of kicking. He gets it. I have seen him working first hand as a Coach at my Special Teams Solutions camps for the past eight years. He definitely has a special way of connecting with young specialists to improve their skills." - Lee McDonald Owner, Camp Director Special Teams Solutions ![]() “I have had the pleasure of knowing Chris for about 8 years now. I have watched him perfect his skills from his early days in college through his training camp days with the New England Patriots. Chris is like a master mechanic of placekicking. He has a keen ability to analyze a kicker’s performance down to the smallest detail. And trust me there are no small details in kicking. He not only teaches the path to perfect mechanics but can diagnose the problems that all placekickers face and offer solutions and drills to overcome them.
He has played a major role in my son’s path to becoming a 2013 US Army All American as well as a Full Scholarship Kicker for the Temple Owls. I still rely on Chris as a friend and a fellow coach for my son Jim. I would highly recommend Koepplin Kicking to any parent looking for first class instruction for their son whether it be the junior level, high school or beyond.” - Jim Cooper, Father of Jim Cooper Jr. Temple University Kicker 2013 US Army HS All American |

“We feel fortunate to have Chris as a resource for our son. Chris coaches the big and small picture; the Kicker’s role in the game as well as the important details and technique modifications that matter. He brings personal experience from Kicking at the highest level, yet is able to coach an athlete at their particular level. Chris coaches the whole athlete – body, mind & spirit.”
