My Trick Shot Challenge: Show Us Your Skills!

Hey, it’s Freddie Burns here, bringing you something a little different and a whole lot of fun from the field! As a fly-half, you know I love a good kick, but it’s not just about getting the ball through the posts—it’s about doing it with flair.

You might have caught my latest trick shot on Instagram. It was one of those moments where the ball, the boot, and the wind just seemed to be in perfect harmony. The engagement on that post blew me away—turns out, you all love a spectacular shot as much as I do!

So, I got to thinking, why not make this a bit more interesting? I’m excited to announce the Freddie Burns Trick Shot Challenge! It’s time for you to step up and show me what you’ve got. Whether you’re a budding fly-half, a fan of the game, or just someone who loves a challenge, I want to see your most creative, jaw-dropping trick shots.

Here’s How to Join:

  1. Capture Your Trick Shot - Grab a ball, find a spot, and get that camera rolling. Rugby balls preferred, but hey, creativity is king, so use what you’ve got!

  2. Post It - Share your video on Instagram or Twitter. Tag it with #FreddieTrickShot so I can find it.

  3. Challenge Friends - Tag a mate or two to take the challenge next. Let’s spread the fun!

The Prize:

I’ll be watching all your submissions, and the best ones will not only get a shout-out from me on my socials but I’ll also feature them on the Athletes By Design website. Plus, there might just be a few surprises in store for the most creative entries!

This is your chance to get inventive. Think outside the box—maybe your shot comes off the side of a building, uses some cool props, or involves an epic location. Whatever it is, make it something that makes us all say, “Wow!”

Can’t wait to see what you come up with. Let’s kick things off with style and see who really has that magic touch. Remember, it’s all about having fun and pushing the boundaries of what you can do with a rugby ball—or any ball, for that matter. Ready, set, kick!
