With the class of 2007 complete – for the most part, it’s time to shift the spotlight to the class of 2008. The recruiting season starts to really heat up with the combine season, which kicks off in North Carolina later this month.

Every year a new combine tour seems to appear, but the Shrine Bowl Combines, Nike Training Camps, and Scout.com All-American Combines are the most respected.

The Nike Combines are one of the older tours and is already in full swing. The tour hits the Tar Heel State on February 25th at Wingate University, which is located just outside of Charlotte. For most information visit SparqTraining.com and to register Click Here

Although only in its third year, the Scout.com All-American combine tour has quickly become the most respect by college coaching staffs nationwide. While some locations are still in the planning stages, the tour opens up in Jacksonville in a month and will touch down in North Carolina on May 12th at Bank of America Stadium located in Charlotte.

This year, the Scout.com All-American combines are by invitation only. For more information please contact Miller Safrit.

Unlike the Nike and the Scout.com All-American combines, the Shrine Bowl Combines are a statewide tour with the primary purpose of assisting North Carolina’s Shrine Bowl coaching staff in selecting their roster.

The Shrine Bowl Combines kickoff on March 24th at Richmond Senior High School located in Rockingham and continue the following weekend in Matthews at Butler High School. After a weekend off for Easter, the tour resumes for three consecutive Saturdays – Asheville (Reynolds HS), Jamestown (Ragsdale HS), and Snow Hill (Greene Central).

Only rising seniors are eligible to attend any of the Shrine Bowl Combines. For more information Click Here
