Question...Linemen Challenge

[vet93]

If you were going to put together a linemen challenge during the summer what would be some of the events that you think would be a good test of skills for a linemen? Any Ideas? I have thought about 1) Tire relay 2) # of bench reps at 225 lbs. 3) an agility run....Maybe a tug-o-war or some other team event?

Something that the coaches made both the linemen the backs do when I was in junior high was a tug-of-war where you had a rope tied around your waist and you'd try to pull the other guy into the mud. It was used to try to get you to keep your feet moving and worked pretty well.

With lineman I would say the bench reps at 225, and maybe even throw in a squat competition as well on the weights.
Our old coach used to have the lineman run a mile in under 8 minutes, 6 minutes for backs.
Anything to measure strength, stamina, and agility would be great.

The perfect way to find the best lineman and have fun doin it is by "Boss-hogging it"
