The Inaugural Autism Combine

The Inaugural Autism Combine is scheduled for Saturday, April 24, 2010 - which is the day of the NFL Draft (Rounds 4-7). The time is yet to be determined. The Autism Combine will take place at my house at 1495 Wyandotte Rd in Grandview Heights, Ohio. It will include the following 6 workouts that an NFL player goes thru at the NFL combine:

1. The 40 yard dash

2. Bench Press
- NFL players see how many times they can bench 225 lbs
- We will see how many times we can bench 135 lbs

3. The Vertical Jump

4. The Broad Jump

5. The 3 Cone Drill

6. The Shuttle Run

Additionally, each participant will take the Wonderlic IQ Test, which is a written test that each participant is required to take to judge their intelligence.

To see descriptions of the events, see the links to the right of this blog.

Each participant will be ranked from 1 to x (x being the number of participants) in each category. The sum of each ranking will be their overall score. The person with the lowest overall score is the winner.

There will at least be 1 keg provided and snacks. The number of entrants will determine how much beer I will get.

All money will go towards our team (Brady's Team) for Walk Now for Autism, the primary fundraising event for Autism Speaks. More details including entry fee and time to come at a later time. Hope to see several of you there.
