Stephen Yaffe - Lead Coach

I have been coaching HS and College K/P across the country for the past five years, being primarily based in Tampa, FL. I have had a consistent track record of producing effective specialists that perform in games at both the HS and collegiate levels and at ranking camps. I take a multidimensional, forward-thinking approach towards my training, catering to the individuals’ needs. I understand that each athlete is different and must be coached in a way that helps them.

I am currently pursuing an advanced graduate degree in counseling psychology as well. I hope to take this and incorporate it in to my coaching.

I want to be the change you’re looking for. Cheers.

Bailey Cate - Ft. Myers/Sarasota Area

I’m a former All Conference Punter for Old Dominion University from the years 2016-2019. During my time at ODU I got to live out the dream of playing collegiate football on some of the biggest stages of them all. The two most memorable moments were beating The number #13 team in the country Virginia Tech in 2018 and Winning the Popeyes Bahamas Bowl in 2016. Now that my time as a player has come to an end I look forward to working with the next generation to help them achieve their goals.

Dylan Barnas - Orlando, Melbourne Area

Dylan Barnas is the 2nd most accurate kicker in UCF history. Having a 88.2% field goal percentage (11th nationally in 2019), Dylan has been well-utilized in two AAC championships and has received all-academic and all-conference honors.

Coach Barnas takes a directive approach in his teaching. He emphasizes that each athlete needs to follow a specific set of rules in kicking but acknowledges that every athlete will have their own tendencies that make them the specialist they are.
