Participants will be able to participate in various NFL combine exercises, with which they are able to compare themselves to their friends, family, and NFL players. A running leaderboard of top participant performances will be displayed throughout the event
- Vertical Jump: Using the Vertec, we can measure the maximum height of the participant’s jump.
- Broad Jump: Using a tape measure, we can measure the maximum length of the participant’s jump.
- 3 Cone Agility Test: Participants weave through a 3-cone drill, testing quickness and change of direction.
- Grip Strength: Participants use a handheld dynamometer to measure their grip strength.
- Reaction Time: Participants will test their reflexes by measuring their reaction time.
- In-Game Experience
Football Throwing: Participants, of all ages, will be able to test their throwing accuracy by throwing a football at various targets. Participants will also be able to measure how fast they can throw a football, as a radar gun will be used to measure speed.
Discussions and tests can be had about the speed-accuracy trade-off, as well as the physics of the ball flight.
