Cleanup date February 2008 citations missing article date November 2010 The Norfolk Punt was derived from the flat bottomed gun punts that roamed the Broadland waters in the mid to late 19th century. However, at the turn of the 20th Century, in order to get to and from the hunting grounds more efficiently, the punters developed their highly unstable craft to carry a basic mast and sail for travelling with the wind. It is from these humble beginnings that one of the country s most exciting and powerful racing dinghy classes was born.

Refimprove date May 2008 The torpedo punt , similar to a punt in American Football , is a kicking technique implemented in Rugby League , Rugby Union and Australian rules football to enhance the distance the ball is kicked. In rugby, the skill was once frequently applied as clearing kicks by players in the backline. Its use in the rugby codes in similarly related almost entirely to clearing and distance kicks from a team s own territory. From the 1980s, more prevalent use of the drop punt for accurate field kicking led to Australian Football League coaches discouraging the use of the torpedo in general field play as a comparatively low percentage kick. It is now seldom used, with the exception of occasional shots for goal after the siren and to avert the tactic of Flooding Australian football flooding , and sometimes set kicks from full back.

A drop punt is a type of kick in various codes of football . It is the primary method of disposing the ball by foot in Australian rules football and the name describes its technique. The ball is held vertically, and dropped and kicked before it hits the ground, resulting in the ball spinning backwards end over end. This is the preferred technique as it is considered more accurate and easier to mark than the punt kick , which is held flat and does not spin in the air. In Gridiron football it is referred to as a pooch punt or quick kick, a kick used by punters when the team is too far out for a field goal and too close to kick a normal punt because the ball will probably go into the end zone, losing field position in the resulting touchback . The kick has gradually replaced the less effective Coffin corner football coffin corner kick , which was similar to rugby football s kicking for touch where the object was to put the ball out of bounds near the opposition goal. Like Australian rules football drop punts, the pooch punt requires the punter to control the distance and former Australian footballers like Darren Bennett football player Darren Bennett and Ben Graham footballer Ben Graham are generally credited with increasing the popularity of this kick in the National Football League .
