Registration will begin on-site in the weight room area, which can be accessed through the bay doors on the northwest side of the facility, at approximately 6:00 p.m. with the workout beginning promptly at 6:35 p.m.
Participants may pre-register online for the workout at the price of $50 at Empire.MyCustomEvent.com. Deadline for pre-registration is Wednesday, January 27th.
Registration on-site the day of the event will be available for $70 (cash only). Participants will receive a t-shirt as a part of their registration fees. They will also be required to fill out a participation waiver prior to performing any testing or drills.
The workout will be formatted in a pro-style combine fashion with speed and agility testing as well as field work.

Offensive and defensive line positions will also be tested in the bench press (225 lbs.).
Once the testing portion has concluded participants will be broken up into position categories and led through individual position drills. After position drills, skill position players will also go through a passing session including 1-on-1's.
Participants are encouraged to bring both indoor training or soccer style shoes as well as cleats (rubber cleats only, metal will not be permitted). They should also bring any other performance gear, braces, gloves, or equipment they may need to perform.
