Top Irish Athletes Compete In Budweiser’s ‘Combine’ Ahead of Sell-Out Aer Lingus College Football Classic

Posted on: 07 Jul 2023

Budweiser, Official Beer Partner of the Aer Lingus College Football Classic, has gathered some of Ireland’s top athletes from Gaelic games, rugby, soccer and AFL to take part in the Budweiser Combine, a test of speed, accuracy, kicking and physical prowess. 

 

Top college football teams, Notre Dame and Navy, will compete in the Aviva Stadium on August 26th in front of a sellout crowd and Budweiser is giving fans the chance to witness the spectacle of top-level college football and win a pair of tickets to the game that money can’t buy.   

 

Coached by former College American Football Player and kicking coach Tadhg Leader, Andrew Conway (Ireland and Munster Rugby), Sarah Rowe (Mayo LGFA, Bohemian FC, and Collingwood AFLW) and Dean Rock (Dublin GAA) will put their speed and kicking skills to the test against NCAA standards.  

 

Sports fans can tune into the Budweiser Combine on July 4th on LADBible’s social media. Not only that, but over the coming weeks, Budweiser are offering you the chance to win the Best Seats in the House competition through participating pubs. 

 

Budweiser Brand Manager in Ireland, Colin McGough, commented on the return of College Football activity with Budweiser: “There is massive excitement amongst fans of sport in Ireland for this game. Bringing the College Football show to Dublin is something Budweiser is delighted to be associated with. A lucky few will join us in the Budweiser’s Best Seats in the House but for everyone else Dublin’s city centre will be electric on game day with dedicated Budweiser street entertainment and tail-gates.  

 

We all know how talented Andrew, Dean, and Sarah are in their own sports and the Budweiser Combine was a great test of how they would adapt their skills in their respective sport to compete in College Football.” 

 

Fans have the chance to win a pair of tickets by buying a pint of Budweiser, visiting winwithbud.ie, and sharing a picture. There is branded POS in participating pubs with a QR code for easy scanning which will bring entrants to the website to enter. The competition runs from Monday 26th June – Sunday 13th August.
