Nike Combine making a stop in Massillon
By Todd Porter
Posted Mar 04, 2010 @ 07:45 PM


MASSILLON ? The stop at Washington High School sticks out.

The Nike Football Combine travels to 18 cities across the country. It started in Honolulu on Jan. 30 and runs for 51⁄2 months, mostly through large cities. So why Massillon?

The answer for organizers was simple. Stark County is a hotbed for high school football, and Massillon has the finest indoor training facility a high school could dream of.

NIKE COMBINE

A high school football combine is coming to Massillon?s Paul L. David Athletic Training Center on March 6, one that 18 Nike and ESPN operate across the country. The first one was Jan. 30 in Honolulu.

Massillon is the smallest city on the tour, but more than 1,600 players from across the country have registered to take part in the Massillon stop.

Last spring, more than 14,000 players were tested at the combines, which are free. Players can register at

www.nikefootballcombineregistration.com.

Prior to Massillon, Nike will be in Orlando, Fla., at the ESPN Wide World of Sports complex. After Massillon, the tour heads to the Philadelphia Eagles practice facility.

Limited seating for participants? family members will be available.

Massillon head coach Jason Hall informed Stark County coaches of the combine, and several area high schools plan to bring players to the event.
