At the Canada High School Football Showcase, the combine plays a significant role in developing and assessing high school football players. The critical aspects of such an event include:
Athletic Testing
Players undergo various standardized tests to evaluate their physical abilities. These tests typically include the 40-yard dash (measuring speed), the bench press (assessing upper body strength), the vertical jump (testing explosive power), and the shuttle run (evaluating agility).
Skill Drills
Specific drills are designed to assess the players’ football skills. For example, quarterbacks might demonstrate their passing accuracy, running back footwork, and ball-handling skills.
Measurements
Athletes are measured for height, weight, and arm length, among other physical attributes. These measurements are crucial as they provide coaches and scouts with a comprehensive understanding of a player’s physical makeup.
Interviews and Evaluations
Players often have the opportunity to interact with coaches, scouts, and recruiters. This provides a platform for athletes to showcase their character, work ethic, and mental aspects of the game.
Recruitment Opportunities
For many high school players, combines are critical for gaining exposure to college coaches and scouts. Performances at these events can significantly impact scholarship offers and recruitment.
Development Feedback
Players receive feedback on their performance, which can be invaluable for their personal development. It helps them understand their strengths and areas needing improvement.
Networking
Combines also offer a chance for players to network with their peers, coaches, and mentors, fostering a sense of community and camaraderie among aspiring athletes.
High School Football Combines are essential for young athletes seeking to advance their careers. They provide a platform for showcasing talent, receiving constructive feedback, and gaining exposure to collegiate-level opportunities. The event’s importance extends beyond physical assessments, encompassing aspects of personal development, networking, and strategic career planning for young football players.
What will be included:
Combine Events
40-Yard Dash
This is a test of straight-line speed over a distance of 40 yards. Athletes start in a three-point stance and are timed on how quickly they can cover the distance. It’s a key measure of speed and acceleration and is closely watched for all positions, particularly for running backs, wide receivers, and defensive backs.
20-yard Shuttle (also known as the Short Shuttle)
This drill tests an athlete’s lateral quickness, agility, and ability to change direction. The athlete starts in a three-point stance, runs 5 yards to one side, touches the line, runs 10 yards to the other side, touches that line, and then runs back 5 yards to the start/finish line. This drill is essential for all positions but particularly relevant for defensive backs and wide receivers to demonstrate agility.
L-Drill (also known as the 3-Cone Drill)
This drill assesses an athlete’s agility, flexibility, and change-of-direction skills. Three cones are set up in an L-shape, each 5 yards apart. The athlete starts at the first cone, runs to the second, returns to the first, runs around the second cone, weaves around the third cone, returns around the second cone, and finishes at the first cone. It’s a critical test for defensive backs, wide receivers, and running backs.
Vertical Jump
This measures an athlete’s lower-body strength and explosion. The athlete stands flat-footed and is calculated for their vertical leap. This is particularly important for wide receivers and defensive backs who often have to jump high to catch or defend passes.
Bench Press
This is a test of upper body strength. Athletes are required to lift 225 pounds (102 kg) as many times as possible. This drill is fundamental for linemen to demonstrate their strength, but it’s also a measure of endurance and power for other positions.
Broad Jump
Similar to the vertical jump, this drill measures lower-body strength and explosion but in a forward direction. The athlete starts with a standing position and then jumps forward as far as possible, landing with both feet. This is crucial for showing an athlete’s explosive power, relevant to all positions but particularly for running backs and linebackers.
