College Athletic Scholarships: The Path to Recruiting Success in the New Age of NIL, the Transfer Portal and Post COVID Scholarships
THE FIRST OF ITS KIND
It’s a new age. The path to obtaining a scholarship and becoming a collegiate has changed immensely. The recruitment process for student athletes has been completely transformed by the presence of a global pandemic, rising popularity of the transfer portal, and the emergence of NIL deals. Without the proper guidance and knowledge, NCAA recruitment can seem like the WILD WEST.
As a coach, my focus has always been “what are the problems the athletes (and their parent’s) are currently facing? And how can I help solve them?” In the last few years, I noticed that athletes and their parents have had more questions about the recruiting process than ever before.
In my new Number One International Best Selling book book, I have compiled the most important lessons that I have learned in my 51 year career as a coach, and a parent of a D-1 athlete and first team All Amereican Punter. Outlined is everything required to ensure your athlete puts themself in the best position to obtain the “elusive” scholarship and prepare for a smooth transition to the next level.
MARC NOLAN is a former collegiate D1 kicker and punter, semi-pro soccer player, and free agent with the Philadelphia Eagles. After finishing his own athletic career, and his time as Army Veteran,he started the “The Kickers Zone” in 1990 which is now the longest serving kicking and punting one-on-one training company and ALL the time serving as a PART-TIME Instructor to help kids!
Welcome to The Kickers’ Zone/DONTOUTICKYOURCOVERAGE
Celebrating over 50 years as the Longest and most successful Private one on one kicking and punting company in the US!
Our approach is ONLY on one-by-one private instructor led training. We were the first to try the one on some training and we just did not see the overal value compared to our private lessons with the kicking specialists!
We know all the National Rankings folks by heart, and work with them when they are holding their camps and do our best to provide an honest assessment of your child's abilities as a specialist, but then again we've seen THOUSANDS of kickers and punters so our process is based on years of RESULTS
Why only One on One? Simple. We tried the one on some training over 30 years ago! We saw that our instruction became less and but the fun side of competing bi weekly was cool! So we told the guys that with all the technology and cell phones they should just compete and save their money and get on the "kicking/punting" chat group! Thats where the real fun is any way!

What our customers have to say about their experience with The Kickers' Zone.
“After meeting with Marc and looking at his Punting and Kicking Series he has designed, but spending several training sessions with his young punters and kickers he has been working out with, I wanted to join him in his endeavor to help these young athletes get better over time. I am excited to be part of something that should be a real “game changer” for not just the athletes’, but also the parents and coaches.”
“As a fellow ND alum, I thought that I was receiving special attention and energy from Coach Nolan as he shared with me his KickersZone Framework and techniques to punting. Then I saw him work with some of the local high school kickers and quickly realized that the level of engagement I received was as high as it was with the high school kickers.Marc’s passion for what he does clearly distinguishes him from other instructors I had worked with. You cannot teach or coach passion — you can only exemplify it. Marc combines this passion for helping youth achieve athletic goals with knowledge of skills and techniques better than anyone I’ve worked with. I am better because of my involvement with him”.
“I started working with Coach Nolan my sophomore year of high school and continued to work with him into my college career. His KickersZone Series for both the kicker and Punterwas amazing and I benefited greatly from them even when Coach Nolan was not around! It was great to have him with me on the sidelines during games. Good kick or bad kick, I always knew that Coach Nolan would keep me focused on the rest of the game. During training, I never felt like he pressured me to change my kicking style- he simply took what I had, made me feel confident about it, and made it better. Apart from giving me some great coaching tips, Coach Nolan made our training sessions fun and I enjoyed seeing my kicking improve in a relaxed environment. I feel that I have a great friend and role model in Coach Nolan.”
