Some say 15-20 is good, some would argue that you need closer to 30.

I've stuck with about 16 for a while now and it's been doing me good. I suggest you get yours to around 15, at the least.

My kicker has been at 10 stamina since day 1. I have not raised it a single point and I don't plan to anytime soon.

My Kickers that are around Level 24 have 13 Stamina - I believe that as long as their energy doesn't go below 70 at end of the game this should be Ok. I usually train it up by one every season..........

It depends on how much you play but I think 15-20 is a good range.

The only time I really see stamina coming into play is when my team is up by 70-80 points.

Eh, picture your team scoring 24 points. That's a FG, 3 XPs, thus 4 kickoffs, and a kickoff at one of the halfs - 9 kicks.

You get so much time off, that your FG/XPs will probably be fine on energy, but back to back plays going to your kickoff, having better stamina could probably add 5-10 yards to your kickoffs. If your STs suck, those extra % of getting a touchback will really help.

Punter on the other hand, if your team is decent, you don't need stamina that much. Personally, 15 punter, 22 kicker as some rough numbers

One way of looking at it is to see how you do in the kickoffs.
If the length of your kicks decrease too much in the course of the game, I would up the satmina, otherwise not.

The amount of stamina you need is relative to your team. Don't get used much? not much use of stamina. Get 10 TD's a game? stamina is probably a good thing, then...

At the same time, if you get 10 TDs a game, you win no matter how shitty the kicker is - might as well build for when you face good competition.


Thats why for the most part, I avoid SAs who say "this will work best against players with low _____."

mines at 20- just been training it seeing as there really isn't much to train- the speed/stam and jumping/stam combos for intense are good

Why though? How many times will you have to kick 7-8 PAT's and worry about missing and LOSING a game because you are tired?
