ALL-METRO
ATTENTION SPECIALISTS, COACHES & PARENTS:
Since snappers, kickers and punters are not involved in 7-on-7 events, it can be tough for them to find offseason events to participate in. Local former NFL and current college specialists are proud to present the All-Metro Specialist Showcase Series, offering competition and national ranking utilizing the Kicking IndeX (KIX) Player Rating System. The KIX system is the only results-oriented ranking system in the business — it’s the “Moneyball” of kicking. That means specialists have a chance to show college recruits exactly what they can do on the football field based on objective, unbiased results.
