  • Assessment of the Upper Limbs Maximum Power and the Locomotion Speed in Amputee Football Players
    Motriz, Rio Claro, v. 27, 2021, e1021020012 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S1980-65742021001221 Adaptive Sports Assessment of the upper limbs maximum power and the locomotion speed in amputee football players Agnieszka M. Nowak1 , Angela Kwapis1 , Andrzej Kosmol1 1Akademia Wychowania Fizycznego Józefa Piłsudskiego, Wydział Rehabilitacji, Warszawa, Polska Associate Editor: Angelina Zanesco, Departamento de Educação Física, Instituto de Biociências, Universidade Estadual Paulista “Júlio de Mesquita Filho”, Rio Claro, SP, Brasil. Abstract - Aim: The purpose of the study was to assess upper limbs’ maximum power and locomotion speed among amputee football (amputee soccer) players. Methods: The 30-s Wingate Anaerobic test and the 20-m sprint test were performed. Anthropometric measurements and body composition (Body mass index (BMI), percentage of body fat (% BF), and lean body mass (LBM)) were examined. Results: BMI significantly differentiated forwards and defenders (p < 0.05). Peak power (PP) and mean power (MP) were related to LBM (p < 0.05), thus defenders reached higher values of PP, in comparison to forwards. % BF and BMI were related to relative mean power (rMP) (p < 0.05). Field position differentiated players in terms of upper limbs’ relative peak power (rPP) in favour of forwards (p < 0.05). Age was a significant factor for speed velocity on 10 m and 20 m (p < 0.05). There was no relationship between upper limbs’ power and locomotion speed. Conclusion: Body composition, especially % BF may influence on the anaerobic per- formance of amputee football players. Keywords: upper extremities power, amputee soccer, anaerobic performance, lower limb loss, disabled athletes.

  • Exploring Certification Programs and Organizational Capacity in Canadian Soccer
    Exploring certification programs and organizational capacity in Canadian soccer by Lara D. Schroeder A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master in Arts in Recreation and Leisure Studies Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2019 © Lara D. Schroeder 2019 CERTIFICATION, CAPACITY & CANADIAN SOCCER Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii CERTIFICATION, CAPACITY & CANADIAN SOCCER Abstract Assisting member organizations to achieve certification standards is becoming an activity of interest to many governing bodies who seek to develop capacity within their sport (Van Hoecke, Schoukens & De Knop, 2013). Certification programs aim to both promote and validate organizational development while standardizing programs, policies, and procedures. Sport-based certification is growing as an international phenomenon (e.g., Nichols & Taylor, 2015; Perck, Van Hoecke, Westerbeek, and Breesch, 2016; Relvas, Littlewood, Nesti, Gilbourne & Richardson, 2010). A growing number of governing bodies across Canada are implementing certification through multi-sport or single sport certification programs, either designed and delivered through internal programs or by external agencies. Sport organizations face increasing pressure to professionalize and standardize their program delivery and operations (Van Hoecke et al., 2013). Certification schemes represent one means of quality assurance, yet engaging in certification requires extensive investment of time, resources, and energy which may already be limited in amateur sport organizations (Cope, Haq, Garside, Pannell & Gooders, 2014).

  • Book of Abstracts North American Society for the Sociology of Sport 2017 Annual Conference Windsor, Ontario, Canada November
    Book of Abstracts North American Society for the Sociology of Sport 2017 Annual Conference Windsor, Ontario, Canada November 1-4 Age Matters: Canadian Hockey-style Masculinity Comes to Curling Kristi Allain, St Thomas University As Canadian baby boomers reach retirement age and the country becomes increasingly defined by its old(er) citizens, it is surprisingly rare to see the bodies of old(er) men on sports channels and in the newspapers’ sports sections. Men’s curlers have been a noteworthy exception to this trend. Men’s curling — with its focus on older men, hospitality, affability, and a lack of physical exertion — has always stood apart from men’s hockey — which often privileges aggressive and violent masculinity. However, since the Sochi Olympics, when the media heralded the curlers on Team Jacobs for bringing to curling a young, muscular style, a troubling shift has taken place. I argue that media representations of curling draw on both the language and values of Canadian hockey-style masculinity, showing how this results in the problematic erasure of curling’s once-unique form of Canadian sports masculinity. I discuss how curling and hockey connect to the Canadian consciousness and construct the nation as white and male. I then explain how curling’s privileging of non-athletic qualities such as sociability, makes it unique among Canadian sports. Thus, the emerging media discourse, which applies the norms of hockey masculinity to male curlers, demonstrates a complex social reordering of popular understandings of men who curl, and a “sweeping away” of an older, less aggressive masculinity. The Paradox of Professionalism: Elite Women Athletes Negotiate Gender Inequality in Sport Rachel Allison, Mississippi State University Based on interviews with 20 U.S.
