Gameday Kicking began with the American/Canadian Football playing career of the founder, Dean Faithfull. As a self-taught kicker, Dean earned a scholarship to play for the Colorado State University-Pueblo Thunderwolves in 2020. In May 2023, Dean signed as a professional kicker for the Edmonton Elks in the Canadian Football League (CFL). Dean noticed a need for greater education and support for kicking specialists across the board. In light of this, Gameday Kicking was born. 

Gameday Kicking is an organization that is passionate about providing the correct information and full support an aspiring kicking specialist needs to play at a high level. Gameday Kicking was created to provide an elite bespoke service to all kicking specialists, with a focus on player mindset and performance, physical development, and injury prevention.
