COACHES
COACH NICK GATTO
LEAD COACH - KICKERS, PUNTERS, & LONG SNAPPERS
Nick Gatto is a very unique individual. He was born with only one arm and has taken what many call a handicap and turned into a great positive. After a great collegiate career and a 14 year Arena Football Career he wanted to give back to the Houston and San Antonio areas. During this time he developed 4th and 10 Kicking and Punting. Under his guidance kickers, punters, holders, and snappers are taught the basic techniques needed to be successful. He teaches that to be the best you must be consistent and set yourself apart from your competition by giving coaches a sense of calm in knowing you are the right man to get the job done.
