According to the NFL, the purpose of the NFL Punt, Pass and Kick program creates a lively and engaging forum for boys and girls ages 6-15 to compete separately against their peers in punting, passing and kicking skills. The National Football League wants every child to be given an equal opportunity to compete. Therefore, no registration fee or purchase required for any participant to enter.
