Competition Format
Each event carries a point placement value so each quarterback's final score is an accumulation of points for all events.

Mental Testing
Multiple choice and true/false written test that challenges each quarterback to know and understand defensive coverages and schemes, game situations and rules, position technique, and leadership qualities.

Physical Testing
A mini-combine format; testing in the 40 yd dash, vertical jump, standing broad jump, shuttle run (5,10,15), and pull-ups.

On-The-Field- Events

Speed and Mobility
Each quarterback must maneuver through an obstacle course before making a throw on the run at stationary target.

Stationary Accuracy
Targets are strategically placed around the field for the quarterback to take his best shot at hitting each one. There is a total of 5 throws to make in 25 seconds.

On-the-Move Accuracy
Targets are positioned on the field and will begin to move upon command; each quarterback will get 7 throws and the last throw is a deep ball for extra points.

Deep Ball
Each quarterback gets 2 throws to make the longest throw possible to test arm strength.
