📅 Event Overview & At-A-Glance

⚠️ Important Note on Schedule: DAY 1 is Testing Day. This is a dedicated, high-impact window for athletic metrics and will not be a full combine day.

⚡ The FTF Advantage: Why This Event is a Game-Changer

We don’t just host games; we engineer exposure. Here is how the FTF Buffalo Combine puts you directly on the radar of decision-makers across North America:

• Coached by the Pros: You won’t just play in front of coaches—you will be coached by them. Every single team is led by an active University or Collegiate Coach from the USA or Canada.

• Unrivaled Scouting Network: On-site scouts, agents, and local college coaches will be roaming the sidelines.

• Global Digital Reach: Can’t make it in person? No problem. We livestream every game to our massive, verified database of collegiate contacts, allowing coaches to recruit you from anywhere in the world.

• Proactive Marketing: We give you the tools to succeed. We encourage all registered players to invite their target schools to watch the stream live or on-demand.

🛠️ What’s Included in Your Combine Experience?

We provide a comprehensive, multi-layered evaluation environment designed to give coaches exactly what they need to see.

⏱️ Phase 1: Verified Athletic Testing (Day 1)

Modern coaches demand data. On Day 1, you will undergo a 3-hour professional athletic assessment to lock in your verified metrics, including:

• 40-Yard Dash

• Agility Testing

• Vertical Jump

🎥 Phase 2: High-Definition Game Footage

Every second of game action is recorded on our YouTube channel. Post-event, the high-definition footage is fully downloadable, giving you the perfect raw material to build or update your recruitment highlight reels.

📸 Phase 3: Professional Resumé Headshots

Look the part. Every player will receive a professional sports headshot to use for their athletic profiles, resumes, and communication with college coaches.

🏆 Partners, Awards & Media Exposure

Standout performances won’t go unnoticed. We are teaming up with powerhouse brands to elevate the player experience:
