Coach Nick Gatto(4th and 10 Kicking) Houston,TX

It is my great pleasure to recommend Carson Reed. I have gotten to know Carson as his kicking coach and mentor over the last 4 years. During that time, I am thoroughly impressed by Carson’s commitment to understanding the body and its biomechanics, how to be leader on the field to others, great classroom etiquette, and watched as his work ethic has developed into one of positivity and never quit attitude. 

While a student in my Kicking and Punting School, Carson demonstrated an extraordinary interest and ability to teach the younger generation. His ability to connect, to interpret, and teach these young men how to use their bodies and leg properly is unique in how it was mastered as if he had been doing it for years. He brings a story that other kids can relate to and they look up to him to one day be like him. A born leader who is willing to help anyone and never asks for anything in return. It is my strong opinion that Carson Reed would be a tremendous addition to your development, and he has my highest recommendation. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding his character or past athletic work.  

I am writing on behalf of Carson Reed, whom I have known for the last 4 years as my sons kicking coach and mentor. In that time, my family and I have come to know Carson very well as an athlete and a friend. I am pleased to say that he brings the same level of effort and dedication to activities both on and off the field.

As an athlete, Carson is focused and determined, often practicing and coaching my son 2 hours a week on his own time. He’s been instrumental in preparing him to compete at the highest levels of high school football and with his coaching and mentoring, my son made the Utah 2021 2A all-state second team as a kicker his sophomore year, Utah 2022 2A all-state first team as a junior, and Utah 2023 2A all-state first team as a senior. We are very grateful for him and the time he’s dedicated to my son and our family. 

Without hesitation, I would recommend Carson to any athletics department or athletes looking to bring him aboard. He will be a tremendous asset in your development and aspirations of playing at the next level.
