This third edition carries a new title, Physical Education and Sport for the Secondary School Student. The book designed to provide the student with'ait overview of sports, information on skill and technique acquisition, safety, scoring, rules and etiquette, strategy, &pip- ment, and related terminology.

  • Defensive Responsibilities
    DEFENSIVE RESPONSIBILITIES http://www.baseballpositive.com/ "Baseball is a Game of Movement". This is a foreign concept for most youth baseball and softball players. If we could dig into the brain of ballplayers ages 5-12 right next to the idea of 'Baseball' we would find the phrase 'a game where you stand around a lot and don't do anything' (and we wonder why participation is dwindling). When the game is played properly each player on defense is moving (sprinting) the moment the ball comes off the bat. We can do a better job of teaching kids how to play the game. This section is dedicated to helping coaches teach kids their defensive responsibilities on each play regardless of where the ball is hit or where the runners are. Before digging in, let's add something to the old coaching comment, "Be sure you know what to do if the ball is hit to you". But the ball is hit to one player; what about the other eight? The must also teach our players, "Know what you are going to do when the ball is NOT hit to you". The first part of this section outlines in clear and simple terms, the 'Rules for Defensive Movement'. These rules form the foundation for the drills and concepts in the rest of this section. Some of the plays found here are not consistent with player responsibilities on the larger 80' or 90' diamonds. The game on the smaller diamond is slower and the players are not as strong. These facts combined with the shorter distance between the players and the bases makes this game quite different than the one played on the large diamond.

  • Xvi: 3-Man Mechanics Standard Operating Procedures
    XVI: 3-MAN MECHANICS STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES – 3-MAN CREWS ABBREVIATIONS: The plate umpire will be referred to as U1, the first-base umpire as U2, and the third-base umpire will be referred to as U3. It is assumed that in all play situations, U1 will start out behind the plate. There are four basic positions for the base umpires: positions A, B, C and D. These positions are described as follows, and will remain unchanged, regardless of the number of outs: Position A — Both feet in foul territory, approximately 10 feet behind the first baseman. Position B — At the infield cutout near second base, first-base side of the infield, feet parallel to the pitcher's plate, able to move to cover a pickoff attempt at second base. Position C — Halfway between the mound and second base, third-base side of the infield, feet parallel to the pitcher's plate, able to move to cover a pickoff attempt or attempted steal at either second base or third base. Position D — Both feet in foul territory, approximately 10 feet behind the third baseman. If covering a base with runners on, Positions A and D are modified somewhat in that the umpire on the baseline will move up closer to the base, still in foul territory, in order to get an angle on the pickoff attempt and line up the pitcher's foot crossing over the back edge of the pitcher's plate. GENERAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: U1: 1. Call balls and strikes. 2. Rule fair/foul on any batted ball that is played on or comes to rest in front of the front edge of the base down the first-base line with U2 in Position A and down the third-base line with U3 in position D.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
