Testimonials

“Throughout my years of being a snapper, Coach Coney has taught and prepared me to perform at a Varsity and Collegiate level. Since I was in 8th grade, Coach kept building me up year by year and helped me develop both mentally and physically. His investment in me really pushed me to be the best I could every single day. Texas Long Snapping truly pushes you as an athlete and as a snapper through internal competition against fellow snappers, and oneself. Not only does his training develop you as a snapper, but as an overall athlete. Coach Conrey truly has built the best Snapping workshop in all of Texas. God bless him and God bless Texas Long Snapping.”

“Thank you Coach Doug for teaching me for six years. Without your guidance and help I wouldn’t be where I am and who I am today without you. All the mental workouts and tough training sessions have prepared me for the next stage of my life and I couldn’t be more grateful. They have taught me valuable skills so I can have a great career in college and an even greater life. With that said I owe all my success and achievements to you.”

“I went into my freshman year of high school looking to play football for fun with no serious intent. However, when I was introduced to Long Snapping I immediately began to love football. Before I came to Coach Doug I was a skinny kid who could snap a football 10 yards. When I started attending Coach Doug’s camps I noticed immediate improvement. I have now been with Coach Doug for 4 years and through these camps I have become a snapper that has been ranked 26th in the nation. This is thanks to Coach Doug, he will make you a collegiate snapper but will also teach you a lot about the mental game of sports and life. I learned a lot from Coach Doug and you could too!!”

“I just wanted to let you know that I have received my first opportunity at the D1 level at the University of the Incarnate Word. I wanted to thank you for continuously working with me and believing in me, and doing everything you can to physically and mentally prepare myself to be a great athlete, student, and man. You’ve been training me since 8th grade and I wouldn’t want to be coached by anyone else!! I never thought I could meet someone who has the same love and passion for this unique football position. And I know you personally know the coaches, so I know you heavily influenced this opportunity and I am very grateful for that. Thank you again, coach! God bless!!”

“I joined Texas Long Snapping going into my junior year of high school, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I came in as a kid who didn’t know much about long snapping other than my school needed one and that it was a great way for me to start on varsity. I left being a two-year starter and being the best man, athlete and Christian I could be. Coach Conrey is one of the best coaches I’ve ever had! His commitment and care for his athletes are second to none and he truly pushes us to be our best at all times, not just to make us better athletes, but also better men on and off the field. TXLS’s program is not just about the physical parts of snapping, but it also heavily incorporates your mental toughness into everything you do. Coach Corey is truly in a league of his own when it comes to coaching. I have been to a few other camps and Coach Coney soars above every other Long Snapping coach I know. I highly recommend Texas Long Snapping to anyone who is looking for their way onto the field at any level. With Coach Conrey’s help and the great community of Texas Long Snapping, you won’t only become a great snapper but also a great athlete, man, and Christian.”

“When I first started training with Coach Conrey, I was in the 6th grade, and I didn’t know anything about long snapping. The passion that Coach Conrey has about snapping was something that I had never seen before. From learning about the 6-step snapping process to your breathing techniques when you’re about to snap, all of these work in game time situations. What you learn from Coach Conrey isn’t just about football, it’s about life as well. Coach Conrey teaches his players that no matter how much pressure you have, always be calm and everything will be okay and workout. He focuses on every athlete he has and will work with you on your strengths and weaknesses and make the weaknesses into strengths. You will see improvements in weeks if you listen to Coach Coney and do his workouts on your own. Outside of football he has been there for me when I had rough times and he is one of the best coaches that I have been around. He teaches so much about life, like the breathing techniques he teaches that I use when I am about to take a test or even when I’m going on a date. Coach Coney didn’t just make me a great snapper, he made me into a great young man that now has confidence in himself to be successful.”

“I started working with Coach Conrey in the Spring of my 6th grade year in Middle School. After playing several positions in football, I knew to accomplish my dream of playing college athletics I needed to learn to Long Snap. My Dad found Coach Conrey for me and it was a true blessing. I didn’t like the long drives at first from Georgetown to San Antonio, but eventually I looked forward to them to train. Under coaches’ guidance he helped me achieve many accomplishments. I was chosen to play in the USA International Bowl 3 times, earn a Kohl’s 4.5 star ranking and be ranked in the Top 50 Long Snapper class of 2022. With Coach Coney’s coaching and guidance, I received 10 different college offers and with his advice have chosen Tyler Junior College to begin my collegiate career. I will always be thankful and blessed to be part of Coach Coney’s Texas Long Snapping family!”

“Coach Conrey has taught me more than football; he has also taught me about life. I learned from him that using your mind can be your greatest asset, and his lessons were a tremendous help to my high school career. He taught me how to overcome obstacles, how to plan my life and how to calm down in a stress-inducing situation like long snapping.”

“I joined Texas Long Snapping my sophomore year of high school. Compared to others, I got a late start on snapping, but Coach Conrey quickly taught me how to snap a football and directly helped me progress in my training. Coach Conrey has a total hands-on instruction approach, which helped me tremendously as I was able to become proficient in my skills almost immediately. TXLS’s intense and focused workouts helped me keep my snapping and general football training in line. Every Sunday I spent snapping I felt ready to take on another week of football workouts with full effort. Coach Conrey’s program is not just about snapping, but becoming a mentally-intense animal on the football field. TXLS allowed me to achieve great feats in sports, but in life beyond football. Using the mental tools taught in TXLS I was able to keep my priorities in line and achieve my goals in all aspects. Even out of high school, I am very grateful for the mentor relationship I still have with Coach Conrey and the TXLS program as a whole. I highly recommend to anyone that has an interest in becoming an outstanding long snapper to begin training with Texas Long Snapping, you won’t only become a great snapper, but a better overall athlete and success-driven individual.”
