Kicking.

In Jr hi and jv games do your teams kickoff or punt.? Games begin at the 30yd line and if it's 4th down if they don't go for it the officials take it 35yds downfield like a punt.

I’m pretty sure that’s the way all of them are doing it. I personally don’t like that I think you need to start teaching them to kick, punt and kick extra points.

Vott, I’ve seen a couple of Jr. High games and at the ones I’ve seen.  They kickoff to start the game and after scoring TD’s.  Now they don’t kick the PAT but they go for two.  I have no idea about punting though.  They should just stick with the Dodd Lee mentality and just go for it.

In the coast conference. 7th grade kicks off but that’s it. 8th grade they kickoff and punt. A few teams kick extra points but most go for two.

I was at an Ocean Springs 7th grade game where their kicker made all four of his PATs easily. It’s good that teams who have em will be able to give kickers a chance to improve. That includes learning to do kickoffs.
