WELCOME TO THE U!

YOUR TRAINING STARTS HERE

You’ve made an investment not only in your long snapping, but in your future. We’ll work closely throughout your training to build your physical and mental game. I’m looking forward to getting to know you, understanding your goals, and helping you become a better long snapper.

Consistency is key. I expect every athlete I work with to stay consistent with meetings, film evaluations, training, and communication. I’ll hold you to a high standard, and I expect you to hold yourself to one as well. Put in the work, stay engaged in the process, and we’ll keep chasing improvement together.

WARNING

THIS TRAINING WILL CHALLENGE YOU.

Real improvement requires change. Some changes may feel different, uncomfortable, or even worse before they feel better. That’s part of the process.

We are not here to protect what is comfortable. We are here to identify what is holding you back, build more efficient movement, and create a snap that will hold up when it matters.

Think about someone who learned to type using two fingers. They may have gotten pretty fast doing it that way. If you suddenly teach them to use all ten fingers, they’re going to type slower at first. That doesn’t mean the new technique isn’t working. Their brain and body are learning a new movement pattern.

With enough intentional repetition, the new technique becomes natural and eventually allows them to perform faster and more efficiently than their old method ever could.

Long snapping works the same way.

One of the biggest things that can hold a long snapper back is identifying too strongly with how they currently snap.

“This is how I snap.”
“This is what I’ve always done.”
“This is what feels natural to me.”

Be careful with that mindset. The way you snap today is not your identity as a long snapper. It’s simply your current solution.

You may already be effective doing it your way. But being effective doesn’t mean you’re being efficient, and being comfortable with a movement doesn’t mean there isn’t a better one available.

Don’t protect your current technique just because it’s familiar. Be curious about what else is possible.

When we change a movement you’ve performed thousands of times, your results may temporarily get worse. Don’t judge a change by how it feels or performs on Day 1.

Be willing to experiment. Ask questions. Make mistakes. Trust the process. Most importantly, do the work between evaluations.

I’ll give you the information, feedback, and direction. Your job is to apply it consistently and give the changes enough time and repetitions to take hold.

Learn It. Train It. Trust It.

USING YOUR TRAINING

You may use your Training in a few different ways:
A.) Use 1 lesson every month. This is the recommended approach and allows us to consistently evaluate your progress, make adjustments, and build on what we worked on in your previous meeting.
B.) Use lessons at a faster pace. This is uncommon, but some athletes move at a faster pace. If you are catching on quickly and want to meet sooner, we definitely can.
Using your lessons early does not change the length of your membership. Your training continues through your original expiration date, including weekly video analysis, group calls, and other benefits. Once you have used all of your included lessons you will not have another meeting available unless you purchase an additional meeting at a rate of $100 per meeting.

When it comes to scheduling your lessons, if you do not use your lesson for the month IT WILL EXPIRE. This is to keep you consistent. You will not improve if we do not meet for months at a time. If improvement is a priority to you, you will show up every month for your lesson.

VIRTUAL LESSONS

Virtual lessons are NOT live snapping sessions. These meetings are designed for teaching, discussion, and building a clear plan for your training.

BEFORE YOUR LESSON

Send recent snapping film through OnForm before we meet. This allows me to evaluate your snapping ahead of time and identify what we need to address during our lesson.

DURING YOUR LESSON

Find a quiet place with a strong internet connection where you can focus without distractions. Have something available to take notes.

During the meeting, we will review what I am seeing in your film, teach you the concepts behind the changes we are making, discuss drills and training strategies, answer questions, and establish your priorities moving forward.

This is your opportunity to understand your snap at a deeper level. Ask questions and take notes. I want you to leave every lesson knowing exactly what you are working on, why you are working on it, and how to train it.

The work happens after the meeting. Learn it during the lesson, train it throughout the month, and use your weekly OnForm evaluations to make sure you are progressing in the right direction so you can trust your snap on game day!

Learn It. Train It. Trust It.

VIDEO EVALUATION

Your weekly video eval is where we make sure your training is moving in the right direction.

SEND FILM ONCE PER WEEK

Submit your snapping film through OnForm once each week for evaluation. Send film that clearly shows what you are currently working on and include any questions or context that will help me understand what you are feeling. This should include the drills and any snapping you are doing.

You do not need to send film every time you snap. The goal is to give you feedback, give you time to apply it, and then evaluate your progress the following week.

GIVE ME TIME TO RESPOND

Once you submit your film, give me 24–48 hours to review it and provide your analysis. I want to take the time to actually evaluate what you are doing rather than rush through your film.

Video evaluations may be delayed on major holidays.

TAKE THE FEEDBACK AND GET TO WORK

Once you receive your evaluation, don’t immediately send more film. Take the information I gave you and train it.

Work on the corrections, drills, and priorities we discussed throughout the week. Give yourself time and repetitions to actually make a change.

Then, when you submit film the following week, we can evaluate what improved, what still needs work, and what we need to address next.

Consistency beats constantly searching for new corrections. Give the process time to work.

SCHEDULING

YOU are responsible for scheduling your lessons. We will not reach out each month to schedule them for you.

Scheduling is simple:

1. CHECK THE CALENDAR
Use the scheduling calendar in OnForm or the website to see availability.

2. PICK A TIME

Choose an available date and time that works for you.

The calendar shows blocks of availability, not individual appointment times. Select a 30-minute window anywhere within an available block.

Your first lesson is typically 60 minutes. All lessons after your initial meeting are 30 minutes.

Example: If the calendar shows availability from 8:00–10:00 AM, you may request 8:00, 8:30, 9:00, or 9:30 AM.

3. EMAIL TO SCHEDULE
Email
SpecialTeamsU@gmail.com with the date and time you would like to schedule. We will confirm your lesson and add it to the calendar.

IMPORTANT

Your membership includes a set number of lessons based on the program you purchased. Your lessons must be used before your membership expiration date.

If you do not reach out to schedule your lessons, we will not remind you. Any unused lessons remaining when your membership expires are forfeited and do not roll over.

You may schedule lessons more frequently and use your included lessons ahead of schedule. Just remember: once you have used all of your included lessons, you will not receive another individual lesson unless you purchase an additional meeting.

Need to reschedule? Contact us as soon as possible so we can find another available time.

RECRUITING

Recruiting can be confusing. My job is to help you understand the process, build a plan, and make better decisions throughout your recruitment.

I have spent years working with long snappers at every level and building relationships throughout college and professional football. I can help you understand where you realistically fit, which programs to target, how and when to communicate with coaches, what film to send, how to handle camps and visits, and what your next steps should be.

SEND ME YOUR INFORMATION

If you want my help with recruiting, I need the following information. Email it to CoachStelter@SpecialTeamsU.com

  • Name
  • Height
  • Weight
  • High School / College
  • Graduation Year
  • GPA
  • X Profile Link
  • Highlight Film / Recruiting Profile Link

Keep this information updated as your film, academics, measurables, and recruiting situation change. Having your information readily available allows me to quickly pass it along when a coach contacts me looking for a long snapper who fits your profile.

If you have questions about an offer, roster situation, transfer opportunity, camp invitation, scholarship, preferred walk-on opportunity, or anything else involving your recruitment, ask me before making a decision. Every athlete’s situation is different, and having someone who understands long snapping and the recruiting landscape can help you avoid mistakes and make a better plan.

When appropriate, I can also advocate for you and communicate directly with coaches on your behalf. My relationships can help open doors, but ultimately your ability, film, academics, character, and performance have to give coaches a reason to recruit you.

Keep me updated on your recruiting. The more I know about what is happening, the more I can help you navigate it.

COMMUNITY

Virtual Training is more than 1-on-1 coaching. You are joining a community of long snappers who are serious about improving and have the opportunity to learn from some of the best people in the game.

On the first Sunday of every month, we host a Virtual Training Group Call. These calls are designed to give you access to different perspectives, experiences, and information that can help you develop beyond your individual snapping technique.

Past calls have included mental performance coaches, professional long snappers from the NFL and CFL, and experienced FBS long snappers sharing what they have learned and answering questions. We also regularly discuss training, mindset, preparation, recruiting, routines, competition, and what it takes to perform at higher levels.

This is your opportunity to ask questions, learn from athletes who have already been where you want to go, hear what other long snappers are experiencing, and build relationships within the long snapping community.

Group call dates, times, topics, and guest information will be shared through OnForm each month.

SOCIAL MEDIA

Part of Virtual Training is helping you get noticed for the work you are putting in.

Special Teams U has built a large network of college coaches, professional coaches, scouts, agents, and long snappers at every level. I want to use that platform to help promote athletes who are consistently training, improving, and putting good film out there.

Let people know you are putting in the work. Add @SpecialTeamsU to your social media bio to show coaches, teammates, and other athletes that you are actively training and serious about your development.

Let people know you joined. Use one of the included images below to make a post announcing that you have joined Special Teams U! Tag @SpecialTeamsU so I can see it, share it, and help you start building exposure through our network.

Keep tagging us as you train. Tag @SpecialTeamsU in your snapping and training posts. I regularly repost our athletes to help get their film in front of a larger audience.

Exposure is valuable, but it starts with doing something worth exposing. Put in the work. Show your progress. Give people a reason to notice you.

Here are some images you can use for your posts:
