WHAT IS A SPARQ RATING?
SPARQ Training is the dynamic training method used at the Nike Football Training Camps. The SPARQ Rating is a number that identifies overall athletic ability and is used by top coaches and trainers around the nation as an initial indicator of an athlete's potential on the field

BENEFITS
This is a great opportunity for you to take advantage of Nike's commitment to football, which will give athletes an opportunity to get tested professionally. There is also an opportunity for great recruiting exposure and coverage. ESPNRISE.com and ESPN.com, home of the Nike Football Training Camps and producers of other top events such as Elite 11, Nike 7ON, and Gridiron Kings will be at the Nike Football Combines covering the event as well as taking photos and video. In addition the results will be distributed to major college football programs all over the country. Also, a good performance can mean a spot at the Nike Football Training Camps, which kickoff in April.

We look forward to hopefully seeing you and your athletes at a Nike Football Combine this spring. For a complete list of dates and locations, as well as other frequently asked questions, please visit www.espnrise.com and click on Nike Football Combines.
