Behind the Ball
Celebrating Years of Commitment to Kicking
A self-taught kicker who began his kicking career in the sixth grade, Coach Cooper kicked for four years at Mainland Regional HS. After setting virtually every kicking record at Mainland, he accepted a full scholarship to Temple University. A three-year starter, Coach Cooper kicked two of the greatest game-winning field goals in Temple's history to beat both the Pitt Panthers and the West Virginia Mountaineers for the first time in the history of Temple's
football program.
Years later, Jim turned down an offer to tryout for the Oakland Raiders due to the impending birth of his daughter. After that, he played briefly with the Atlantic City Cardsharks of the National Indoor Football League. By age 41, Coach Cooper's pro career began and ended in only 3 weeks.
Which led to Jim's real passion – working with young kickers, punters, and long snappers. Coaching at his alma mater MRHS for 21 years alongside his friend Bob Coffey, Cooper consistently developed some of the finest kickers in South Jersey. The highlight of his 21+ year career was coaching his son Jim Cooper Jr, who broke almost every record set by Jim Sr.
