for real man. surely someone on the damned soccer team (rec or not) has a cannon of a leg and has kicked before.
kickers are like closers in baseball though. if you can build confidence (and mental toughness) and the talent is there, they're great. if you can't build confidence, all the talent in the world doesn't matter.
As we have seen, our kickers become quite the mental case.

no doubt. and it's easy to get frustrated with them, but with kickers you've got to build the confidence up a little at a time. take more makeable kicks in practice. let them see the ball go through uprights a ton. gradually back them up based on leg strength and accuracy. and, until both you and them have confidence, don't let them attempt anything in a game they can't make 80% of the time in practice.
just from a guy who has seen his fair share of kickers (and closers), that's the approach I'd use
