MEET COACH CONTRATTO
With more than 14 years’ experience in playing and coaching football Coach Contratto focuses on training athletes to become great performers. He specializes in training players at College and High School levels developing and enhance skills and fine-tuning athletes into top Special Teams players.
Coach has learned that Kicking and Punting are both an art and a science. It requires continuous focus on practicing and 1-on-1 feedback sessions using on the field sessions, then film reviews to enhance your athletic form. His initial step is to identify and refine your current foundational skills, then creates a custom plan to build upon and
reinforce these as a path to increased success while having fun playing football.
Soccer players can make great kickers and / or punters, too! We encourage these athletes to consider this path.
Coach Contratto will be joining Bowling Green State University as a Special Teams Analyst and hands on Coach in 2026 to help grow team talent. Go Falcons! This new role follows on from his recent successes at the University of North Carolina Charlotte, and with the Desert Mountain High School football program where he contributed to the team winning the 2025 Arizona State Championship!
​
He also performs as an Assistant Specialist Coach for two nationally recognized Training programs that focus on Special Team Combines with D1/2/3 College Seniors; NFL free agents, and local Arizona high school talent.
