Personal Statement
My name is Darren Bredesen and I will be entering into my senior year at Catholic
High School in Pensacola, Florida. I will be performing all kicking and punting
responsibilities this upcoming 2020 fall season, which I have done for the Varsity squad
since my sophomore season. For the past two seasons, our squad has advanced into
the Florida High School Class 3A Football Regional finals. These opportunities were
highly rewarding and greatly advanced my outlook on the necessity of preparation and
commitment, as well as being an encouraging and uplifting teammate. I enjoy the focus
and coordination a kicker/punter must have in game time situations to help the team
during special teams play. Since my freshman season, I have diligently worked on my
kicking skills by attending multiple Chris Sailer Football Kicking camps, attending
multiple Div 1A college kicking camps, as well as One on One Kicking. Mechanics,
attention to detail, technique, ball contact and follow through are just a few of the
physical attributes that were gained attending these events.
Additionally, my senior year will be dedicated to improving my academics, as well as
ACT/SAT for entering college. The priorities that I have been taught and live by are my
faith, family and academics, which will never be compromised.
