Coach Aguiar-
Our son received a full athletic scholarship to a Division 1 school because of the instruction that hemore...
has received from you the past four years. Who has a past NFL punter for a kicking coach in high school? Our son was fortunate enough to have that opportunity. Ben had never played football until his freshman year of high school. He played soccer prior to high school. Beginning his freshman year you began to encourage him and work with him. He was placed on the JV squad to kick and punt. He then was a starter the rest of his high school career. His stats and awards speak for themselves. But even more important, Ben looks up to you not only as a highly qualified kicker and punter, but also as a person. You have instilled in him work ethic. You have taught him to be coachable. You have had confidence in him and in turn he has confidence in himself. The skills that you have taught him are amazing. When he has attended kicking camps for high school kickers/punters in the summer it is obvious that he has learned from the best. My husband and I would recommend your instruction to any young man wishing to excel at the kicking game. Words can not express our gratitude!!
Sincerely,
Lisa and Daryl Skaer

This is our sixth consecutive year of camp. Having coached for almost thirty years and been exposed to many cliniciansmore...
and camps, this is by far the best. Louie personally does the instruction, and only has professional or former professional athletes on his staff. Every camper will receive whatever individual instruction they need, whether junior high or college. After the camp, all campers can call him personally if they run into any difficulty. Without one exception, every camper has learned and benefited from the camp and has developed a personal rapport with Louie. They appreciate his professional expertise, but just as importantly, Louie’s personable approach and interest in them. You can’t go wrong on this camp!!

Louie,
When Aaron (McLean) and I heard about your camps and training two years ago we felt that you could offermore...
more personal attention in helping Aaron with both his punting and kicking. In fact Aaron's senior year 2003-04 at Althoff (with 56 points and virtually no return yards on punts - All City and All Conference Starter Honors) was good enough to get him looked at by a number of Division IA and III football teams.
Aaron elected to go to Millikin University (College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin) where the head coach placed a great deal of expectations on Aaron as his starting kicker for the varsity squad. Prior to the start of the season Aaron won the starting punter position as well. Aaron started as both the varsity kicker and punter for all 10 games (2004). He ended up with impressive stats for a freshman but the purpose of this letter is to inform potential campers that you offer an extra — in-season review of kicking.
Aaron was struggling with kickoffs and punting midway through last season. He sent you a tape and followed up with a call to get your advice. Your suggestions helped reinstate some kicking fundamentals that in turn improved his kicking/punting and overall confidence.
Millikin had a number of new starting players including linemen, long snappers and kicker in 2004. The first part of the season Aaron earned his keep with his athletic ability and quick response to snaps not being on target. Aaron ended up his first year with 43 points, third in team scoring. He only got the opportunity to attempt 4 field goals, making 3 (long - 38 yards, 1 blocked). He went 34 for 38 in PAT's. Punting he made 46 punts for an average of 35.4 yards. This may not look too impressive but the average return was less than 6 yards. He put 7 inside the 20 and 2 touch backs. He had to run once for 20 yards and a first down. He also had to deal with more windy conditions that he did in high school.
At Millikin Aaron has been able to continue to play football and get a great education. He has a 3.5 grade point average, joined a fraternity and overall very happy with his decision to go to Millikin. Division III football may not get the press but don't forget that these players are still select atheletes. Skill, speed, size and play books are noticably different than in high school football.
Aaron understands the importance of working with a professional like yourself and plans to continue working with you.

I came to Louie right after my sophomore year as just another soccer player with a strong leg who wantedmore...
to give football a try. Coach Aguiar built me from the ground up; I came to him as a blank slate. His years of experience and dedication to helping each athlete individually really do make a difference. Every time I have problem I come to Coach Aguiar and usually within 15 minutes he has not only isolated the problem in my mechanics, but is well on the way to fixing it. All of my accomplishments I have had in kicking started with Louie Aguiar, I couldn’t have done it without his help.
I will be kicking at the University of Kansas next fall and can’t thank Louie enough for all of his help, and for becoming a valued friend and mentor along the way. I don’t know too many ex-professional football players who you can call on a weekend and have a 30 minute conversation with just to “catch up”.
If you would like to propel your game to the next level, I would advise you to seek out Coach Aguiar. I can say first hand that it will make all the difference in the world.

Thanks for all of your help. Doing well at your camp in Tampa this past March was a major stepmore...
for Rhett because directional punting was the emphasis (and as you know, that is his
strength). I am sure that he will call you shortly. Be sure to pass the word on to Mike and Leo. Stay in touch.

Thanks for doing a great camp at Eastern. Again we were much impressed. Chris has attended other sports camps, butmore...
like last year, your's is the most worthwhile. He was really looking foward to it and was not disappointed, despite the hundred degree heat. At your camp, he learns, has fun, gains confidence, and has immediate improvement in his technique. I'm really impressed at how you are able to motivate kids, to get them to really enjoy learning and working. Chris is looking forward to practice sessions again
Great Job,

Our son Clint attended your camp and commented it was one of the best camps he has been to. Wemore...
have seen a difference in his performance and the one-on-one interaction with
your staff was great. He said he learned more from this camp than any of the other 4 camps he has been to (University of Georgia, University of Auburn, University of Tennessee and the Feely kicking camp). Once again, thank you.

My son Jimmy is a preferred or invited walk on at Mizzou this fall. That is something for me tomore...
be proud of and is worthy of note all by itself. If you knew that last year at this time he was a soccer player with his mind on winning the club national championship (he did) and had only minor thoughts of football adds a big twist to the story.
Jimmy was asked by the Kirkwood football coach, Larry Frost, to add football to his list last fall (his senior year) along with high school soccer. He asked Jimmy to go to Aguiar Kicking Camp first to learn a few tricks of the trade. He went to camp, and ended up playing on both football and soccer teams (both conference camps, football went to the final four).
At Kirkwood he was 47 for 49 on PATs and 4 for 5 on field goals. The highlight was kicking the game winning field goal before 10,000 people at the Turkey Day game with 28 seconds on the clock! Not bad for a soccer player!
Jimmy got a great "base" to work from at Louie's first camp. This summer Louie worked with Jimmy a second time to fine tune his mechanics. With the video system he was able to show Jimmy why he needed to move his plant foot just a bit which has added both distance and accuracy. He is very pumped and confident on his way to Mizzou... thanks Louie.

I can not express in words how valuable Louie Aguiar's tutelage has been to me over the past few years.more...
I have had the great privilege to know and work with Louie since 2002. In those three years Louie has completely changed my perspective on the kicking game. Louie breaks down the steps involved in all phases of the kicking game better than any coach I have ever worked with. The one-on-one time received by the campers with Louie is unmatched by any other kicking camp I have attended. Instead of having other people work with the campers, Louie insists on devoting as much of his time to the kids as possible. Louie is a very down to earth person and sincerely enjoys working with others, a trait not commonly possessed by men of his stature. By attending Louie's camps, I have received the highest level of kicking instruction, and will be grateful to him for life. Whether your goal is to kick in the high school level, college level, or pro level Louie Aguiar’s Kicking Academy provides the knowledge and instruction to keep you one step a head of the competition.
Sincerely,
Stephen Webb

My senior season is now over for the Patchogue-Medford Raiders (New York). For my season, I beleive it was mymore...
best yet. My stats improved greatly, and I made a difference in a few of my games. Thanks to Louie, I believe my stats are better, because before I went to his camp, I was constantly doing a couple of things wrong, which would hurt my accuracy. So thanks to Louie, he fixed my problems, and I felt much better.
Once again I beleive that because of him I've had lots of success, and colleges talk to me. With those colleges, Louie even talked to them for me and put in an amazing word for me helping me out. The colleges that contacted me and I talked to were: Stony Brook University, Wagner, New Hampshire, Maine, Sacred Heart, and Culver Stockton. I signed my letter of intent to go to the Stony Brook Seawolves. A D1-AA team in the Northeast Conference. So I thank Louie a lot for my success and I really thank him for the help he has given me this past year. I believe he has the best kicking camp out there. He lets you call whenever you want, if you need help or if you have any questions. He is a great coach, and can fix your problems before you even kick a ball. I highly recommend his camp for anyone who wants to kick at any type of level. He made me a much better kicker and he can do the same to anyone else. Thanks a lot Louie for all your help and being there for me when I had questions and needed help.
