K* Muammil. K** *PhD Scholar, Department of Physical Education, Calicut University, Calicut. **L.D Clerk, Calicut. Abstract A case study is a "published report about a person, group, or situation that has been studied over time. If the case study is about a group, it describes the behavior of the group as a whole, not behavior of each individual in the group. Case studies can be produced by following a formal research method. These case studies are likely to appear in formal research venues, as journals and professional conferences, rather than popular works. The resulting body of 'case study research' has long had a prominent place in many disciplines and professions, ranging from psychology, anthropology, sociology, and political science to education, clinical science, social work, and administrative science. Key Word: Football, Case Study. Introduction Soccer is the most popular competitive sports in the world today. To nudge or kick a pebble or stone in front of us is a common temptation. So, even if there are no records, we can assume that some kind of foot ball was a part of man’s life, in primitive days. In historic times some races used their enemies served heads as footballs. The Romans are said to have fostered football as a part of their military training. It is generally assumed that Roman soldiers brought the game to Britain. The game of football is one of the most popular and simple game in the world.

  • Academy Shivamogga
    www.achiever’s academy shivamogga Q 1) Which of the following cities has become the India’s first city to switch from BS-IV grade fuels to BS-VI (equivalent to fuel meeting Euro-VI emission norms)? A) Kolkata B) Chandigarh C) New Delhi D) Chennai New Delhi From April 1, the petrol pumps in New Delhi started supplying ultra-clean Bharat Stage (BS) VI grade fuel (both petrol and diesel) with an aim to combat the rising levels of air pollution in Delhi-NCR region. With this move, New Delhi has become the India’s first city to switch from BS-IV grade fuels to BS-VI (equivalent to fuel meeting Euro-VI emission norms). The major difference in standards between the existing BS-IV and the new BS-VI auto fuel norms is the presence of sulphur. The newly introduced fuel is estimated to reduce the amount of sulphur released by 80%, from 50 parts per million to 10 ppm. As per the analysts, the emission of Nox (nitrogen oxides) from diesel cars is also expected to reduce by nearly 70% and 25% from cars with petrol engines. Other cities like Noida, Ghaziabad, Gurugram and Faridabad along with 13 major cities, including Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Pune, will also switch over to cleaner BS-VI grade fuel from January 2019. However, BS- VI fuel will be rolled out in rest of the country by April 2020. 2) The first-ever India-South Africa Business Summit (ISABS – 2018) was held in which city? A) Pretoria B) New Delhi C) Johannesburg D) Cape Town Johannesburg The first-ever India- South Africa Business Summit (ISABS 2018) was held at the Sandton Convention Centre, Johannesburg, South Africa on April 29-30, 2018.
