History of Napalm Kicking

Napalm Kicking was started in 2024 by owner and lead instructor, Adam Napotnik. The company name comes from his nickname, “Napalm” given to him by an assistant special teams coach in high school. He started playing football his freshman year of high school and by his senior season, led all of PA in scoring by kickers and helped his team win a WPIAL Championship and State Runner-Up title in 2014.

 

During his college years, Adam bounced around trying to find a home to play football and get his degree. After 2 transfers and a gap year, he committed to Washington & Jefferson College and went on to be a 2 year starter, winning a PAC Championship in 2018 and an ECAC bowl in 2019.

 

Although, Adam had several scholarship offers to play in graduate school, a knee injury and COVID cut his playing career short. Now, he wants to take his experiences and help the next generation of specialists. Adam has first hand experience with high school and college recruiting, the transfer portal, the professional process, and has worked with some of the best kickers, punters, and snappers in the past decade! He looks forward to using his knowledge and experiences to help guide future specialists all over the country!
