Austin Turfcats News Release
AUSTIN, Texas - The Austin Turfcats announced today that they have scheduled their first Free Agent Combine of the 2010 season for Saturday, November 14, 2009. The combine will be held at Kelly Lane Middle School in Pflugerville, located at 18900 Falcon Pointe Blvd, and will be under the direction of Turfcats Head Coach Chris Duliban and his coaching staff.
The format will consist of a variety of physical tests, including the 40 yard dash, 20 yard shuttle and the standing long jump. Participants will be timed and measured in all of these events. After an evaluation of each participant's times and scores, the group will be reduced to a number of individuals who will be asked to participate in select physical drills. Another evaluation will leave the remaining to participate in skill drills which are related to indoor football. There will not be any contact drills.
The cost of the camp is $65 cash per individual; those who pre-register at Turfcats.com will receive a discounted rate of $50. Registration begins at 10:00am and ends promptly at 11:00am. A thirty minute period of supervised warm-up drills will follow. Testing will begin at 11:30am.
The camp is open to anyone who has completed their college eligibility and is physically able to perform the drills. A waiver and release form will be signed by all participants stating that they are physically able to participate and not hold the Austin Turfcats liable for any injury suffered during the camp.
Participants need to provide their own workout attire. Shorts and t-shirts along with turf or tennis shoes are recommended for the camps. Rubber molded football cleats no longer than one half inch will be permitted for tryouts. Metal football cleats are absolutely forbidden and anyone wearing them will not be allowed to participate. Participation in the free agent camp is not an offer of employment, but merely an evaluation. The Austin Turfcats are not responsible for travel or lodging expenses. Food will not be provided.
