THURSDAY’S EVENTS

Raiders’ Intermountain Healthcare Performance Center, 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. on ESPN

Epic Pro Dodgeball

Four teams of five players will participate in a multiround dodgeball tournament. First, the AFC offense will play the AFC defense, then the NFC offense will face the NFC defense. The winners of those matches will face each other in an AFC-NFC showdown, good for three points toward the winning conference’s Pro Bowl Games total.

Lightning Round

Each conference will select 16 players to participate in the threepart elimination Lightning Round event. The challenge will culminate with one player remaining, winning points for his conference. The Lightning Round includes a water balloon toss competition; a punt catching challenge with balls being launched by a machine; and an aim challenge, with multiple targets needing to be hit before a bucket is dumped on the winning team’s coach’s head.

Longest Drive

Four players from each conference will take part in a golf ball driving challenge. Each player will get three swings. The player who drives the ball the farthest, while keeping the ball in bounds, will be victorious.

Precision Passing

Each conference’s three quarterbacks will take part in a one-minute accuracy challenge, with multiple robotic and drone targets worth one to five points, plus a long toss bucket worth 10 points. Each quarterback will accumulate points for hitting the various targets.

Best Catch, part 1

The two-day Best Catch event will begin with a highlight reel of receptions at various Las Vegas venues. Two players from each conference will take part, judged on creativity, inventiveness and talent. After the catches are aired on ESPN, fans will vote for their favorites online, with the players with the highest votes competing in the finals Sunday at Allegiant Stadium.
