Former University of Tulsa and NFL wide receiver, Brennan Marrion, along with a scout who over the last Twenty years has worked in the CFL, Arena Football League, Arena Football 2, and Europe, Dr. Clayton Banner, have put together The Players 1st & US Canada Free Agents professional football combine for prospective pro football players.  Brennan Marion is the President of Players 1st and Dr. Clayton Banner is the CEO of Canada- US Free Agents.

The event will take place on February 3, 2012 in Saratoga Hills, California at West Valley College.  The co-hosts claim that organizations from many professional leagues will be at the combine, and that scouts, coaches and general managers from both indoor and outdoor football teams/leagues will be in attendance.  Players from all over the country and the Bay Area region are invited to attend the professional football combine.

As part of the combine, the players will be supplied with results of their individual performance, as well as video footage of the drills that the players then can use a part of their football CV (Resume) that is sent to team personnel who are unable to attend.  Players will be tested on their 40-yard time, bench press, broad jump and pro shuttle, with other position-specific drills and one-on-ones and seven on sevens to follow.

Athletes are asked to bring appropriate workout gear and shoes/cleats with them to the combine.  Testing will take place on grass fields.  A trainer will be on hand for emergencies only (not for player taping).
