The Kickers and Sliders course, Thursday and Sunday evenings 6-8pm is where the guys will show you how to approach and hit the kickers, starting with the baby kicker and ending the evening, if all goes well, on the bug kickers (bring a helmet!).

However, when I did it last, we didn't cover the sliders at all so maybe you need to ask specifically to be taught how to hit those during the course?

When I did the Kicker and slider course I was the only one that wanted to try the sliders out of 8 people, if you ask them they will give you some tips on how to do the sliders.
