Present (it?) in front of the group?

Hi. Should there be the object pronoun "it" after the verb "present"?

Please write about yourself and present (it?) in front of the group.

I think we need to specify the sport in order for the sentence below to make sense, but for some sentential contexts, I think you don't need to put an object pronoun, like the one underlined in the example sentence below (even though I feel it is not the best sentence), for the sentences to make sense. I am sorry that I can't provide an example for you to look at.

Please bring the ball and play the basketball.

Well, 'it' doesn't sound quite right. I'd try one of these: Please write an essay about yourself and present it in front of the group. Please write about yourself and make a presentation in front of the group.
