Coaches,
I want to do something for the linemen in our area and put on a lineman's challenge. If anyone has hosted one of these, please pm me so I may ask some questions.
Thanks,
Jackedup

Does anyone charge teams? And do you do it for profit or for costs of production? From the research I've gathered it seems that most people do the following:
Tug-of-war
Bench Press
Some type of Obstacle Course or relay
Tractor Tire flip
Then some others mentioned have been:
Tire toss
1 man Harness pull
Sled Pushing
Truck pulling or pushing
Any others? Set up? Procedures? Advice?
Thanks!!

this stuff is great, i plan on holding a lineman challenge on a friday night mid july and then a 7 on 7 tourney on that saturday. Here is what i have decided on so far
Bench
40 yd dash while pulling sled
Tire pull-Hand over hand
Tractor tire- push/flip depending on how big a tire i get
4x100 yard relay
and farmers walk
someone gave me a great idea of using 2 trap bars for the farmers walk.
Does anyone else have any good ideas ?
Any equipment for other strongman type events that you have made?

Can anyone tell me what you charge for your lineman challenge?
I can get shirts made for $6.00, and am thinking of charging $15.00-$ 20.00 per athlete.
What are you thoughts?

We charge $10.00 per kid for ours. We have a sponsor now that helps with the cost but even when we didn't have one we charged $10.00.
We have 2 divisions and give a big metal trophy that our Ag schop makes to the winners in each division.

i helped put on a lineman challenge last year and have the events and description of them on my Hawg Tuff! Oline Camp website www.hawgtuff.net. We charged $20.00 a kid which included a shirt. lunch and we gave out alot of awards. The kids from all of the schools (14) enjoyed the competition very much. John Boggs the head football coach at Walhalla high school has put together a great scoring system. You can contact him at jwboggs@oconee.k12.sc.us; for ths system. You will really like what the lineman chellenge does for your kids and the schools around you. I is a lineman's dream day! |
