The Vanier Cup National Punt, Pass, Kick Competition Presented by Petrie Ford is a skills competition where contestants are judged by both distance and accuracy, when punting, throwing, and kicking a football. Each participant competes in all three events, and their scores are based on distance. The contestant with the highest overall score across all three events is declared the winner.
The Vanier Cup National Punt, Pass, Kick Competition Presented by Petrie Ford is open to all high school football players (tackle, touch or flag). High school coaches can register their team, or certain players on their team, for the event.
The winner will take home a brand new set of full set of jerseys supplied by T. Litzen Sports for their high school team!
