Cut From the Team? Here’s How Soccer Players Become Varsity Football Kickers — Fast (Even With Zero Experience)
Soccer players who get cut are quietly becoming starting varsity kickers — even with zero football experience.
The moment your name wasn’t on that list… something inside you sank.
You tried not to show it.
You tried to shrug it off.
But deep down?
It felt like a punch to the gut.
Like you failed.
Like you weren’t good enough.
Like everyone else was moving forward while you stayed stuck.
And the worst part?
You don’t see a path to varsity anymore.
Not in soccer.
Not in anything.
But here’s the crazy part — and almost no one tells athletes this:
You’re sitting on a varsity-level skill that football coaches desperately need… and soccer players are naturally BUILT for it.
Most players — and most parents — have no idea this opportunity exists.
But every single year…
Soccer players who got cut… become varsity football starters.
Yes. Starters.
Not benchwarmers.
Not backups.
Not “practice squad.”
Starters.
On Friday nights.
Under the lights.
Hearing the crowd chant their name after drilling a kick through the uprights.
And the reason this happens is simple:
Soccer players have a secret advantage football coaches dream about…
A trained leg.
Years of lower-body mechanics.
Timing and rhythm.
Ball control.
A natural feel for striking.
Kickers don’t need blazing speed.
They don’t need size.
They don’t need to be born athletic freaks.
They need consistency.
They need discipline.
They need reps.
And soccer players?
They’re already halfway there.
But nobody tells you this.
Not your coach.
Not your teammates.
Not even most parents.
So here you are… feeling like you’ve hit a dead end…
while a wide-open varsity opportunity is sitting right in front of you.
A position that could:
Earn you a starting varsity spot
Get you back on the field this year
Earn the respect of teammates
And even open a path to playing in college
All from a sport you’ve never played before.
Because here’s the truth:
You didn’t fail. You just didn’t know where your real opportunity was.
There’s a blueprint for making this switch.
A proven path soccer players your age are already using.
And if you follow it…
it can completely transform your athletic future.
That’s exactly what The Benchwarmer Cure is about.
The BackstoryI know this path works…
because it’s the one that saved my athletic career.
I was a soccer kid too.
Practiced hard. Loved the game. Pushed myself every season.
But no matter what I did…
I wasn’t fast enough.
Wasn’t explosive enough.
And when varsity tryouts came?
I didn’t make it.
Everyone else moved up.
I stayed behind — frustrated and honestly, a little lost.
Then my dad said something that changed everything:
“You can kick a soccer ball pretty well… why not use it somewhere else?”
I didn’t know it that that suggestion saved me.
I pivoted.
I trained.
I learned the mechanics of kicking and punting from a local coach.
And the next season?
I walked onto the football field and earned a varsity spot.
Me — the kid who didn’t make varsity soccer.
And here’s what most athletes don’t realize:
It wasn’t just me.
Players like Brandon Aubrey started in soccer…
and became one of the most accurate kickers in football.
Matt Gay went from soccer to the NFL…
and became a Super Bowl-winning kicker.
Even Jake Bates made the jump from a soccer background into high-level football.
This path isn’t rare.
It’s just not talked about.
Football gave me:
A second chance
A new identity
Confidence I’d never felt before
And eventually… a shot to play in college
Now I’m helping other athletes do the same — because no kid deserves to feel like a failure just because they didn’t make one team.
There is a path forward.
It’s real.
And it works.
The Benchwarmer Cure is the exact roadmap I wish I had at your age
“I didn’t make varsity soccer. I honestly thought I was done.
But learning how to kick changed everything for me.
I went from getting cut… to earning a varsity spot — and eventually playing in college.
That’s exactly why I put this together… so someone else doesn’t have to feel stuck like I did.”
And once you see the path…
everything changes.
Because this isn’t about guessing.
It’s not about hoping things work out.
There’s a step-by-step way to make this switch — even if you’ve never touched a football before.
A way to go from:
Cut → to confident
Overlooked → to reliable
Stuck → to varsity-ready
