On Page2 I have 2 text blocks where i want my class data to appear on navigation. What additional code should i write to perform this action?

In Windows Phone 8.0 and Windows Phone Silverlight 8.1, you can use NavigationService to do page navigations.

You can pass strings as parameter of 'Navigation Uri'.

NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri (
    string.Format("/Page2.xaml?player1={0}&player2={1}", ptd.Player1, ptd.Player2), 
    UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute));

Then in Page2, you can receive the 2 params in OnNavigatedTo method like this:

protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
{
    string player1;
    NavigationContext.QueryString.TryGetValue("player1", out player1);
    string player2;
    NavigationContext.QueryString.TryGetValue("player2", out player2);
}
