Rugby punting allows us to use a variety of different athletes and allows us to have time in order for our coverage to get downfield. If we have a traditional punter it is easy to adjust to regular shield punt, however, we feel that rugby punting gives us better coverage downfield and the more options when it comes to fakes or choice plays in which we can either take off and get a first down or kick it downfield.

We rep. field goal twice a week. Our lineman all step inside and reach for the adject offensive linemans leg. We have several fakes that we routinely run in practice that give us the opportunity to score a touchdown or a 2pt conversion when the time calls for it. We have also ran muddle huddle in the past, but we typically save it for a rainy day. 

Our Kickoff returns have been very successful at all the schools I have been at, we have a number based blocking system and a few different returns at our disposal. We use trap based blocking the majority of the time and try to get down the sideline. Every year we have had at least one kick off return for a touchdown. 

We have had a lot of success with Wall Punt returns. We feel the wall gives us one of the best options because we get a full rush by the front side who are then able to set up the wall for a return. We also have several pure blocks and can also play punt safe if we expect a fake.
