Stiffness variation in hockey sticks and the impact on stick performance Graeme Nigel Carlisle Submitted with corrections for the degree of Masters of Research – Science and Engineering of Materials August 2011 Multiple sectioned shafts of carbon fibre composite were modelled using Composite Design Analysis software in order to replicate the range of flexural rigidities shown across the current field hockey stick market. The shafts were then manufactured using hand lay-up and hot-pressing techniques, tested under static and dynamic conditions and the goodness of their relationship with the modelled behaviour was assessed. The shafts were also analysed microscopically for volume fraction, ply-orientation and the interaction between the varied lay-up sections. The modelling gave a good understanding of the trend of behaviour that was to be expected, but was not accurate enough to predict experimental values.

  • Inline Hockey New Zealand – Branding
    Inline Hockey New Zealand – Branding Inline Hockey New Zealand © Working-concepts are copyright Cluster Creative Ltd Inline Hockey New Zealand – Branding Brand Perception Current logo Inline Hockey is like ice hockey but is played on roller blades. Inline Hockey is seen as an alternative sport. It has small numbers in NZ. This should not be seen as negative, but as a unique positioning because this could make it desirable to individuals who would like to express themselves in a creative way. It is a fringe sport which is edgy. The edge comes from the use of roller blades which give it a hint of ‘skate culture’ and provides a rush of adrenalin. It also needs to be seen as a ‘real’ sport. The brand needs to be regarded as official and as having a NZ team. However, the curent branding gives the opposite impression. This needs to be changed. Audience The sport needs to grow. Work-on-the-ground has been done to address this but the brand is lacking. The primary audience must be the kids, yet also tick the boxes for parents. The target audience is: Kids who: - have tried roller blading (or who may be attracted to it) - have not ‘connected’ with mainstream sport - see the sport is cool - see that the sport has heroes (market the star players?) - see it has future for them. Parents who: - are open to alternatives - want their child to fair go (smaller sport means more inclusive feel?) - want a supportive community Inline Hockey New Zealand © Working-concepts are copyright Cluster Creative Ltd Demographics Cities - have good facilities but market reach is hard due to competition Rural - easier to market to by word of mouth Schools - a captive audience, but must be introduced in a cool way not a school way Media - some inline hockey mention in print and radio, ice hockey (parent-sport) gets some mainstream coverage Web - has a website, FB page, but no active campaigning using Google Analytics or tracking.

  • Numerical Simulation of the Ice Hockey Slap Shot
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Engineering 112 ( 2015 ) 22 – 27 7th Asia-Pacific Congress on Sports Technology, APCST 2015 Numerical Simulation of the Ice Hockey Slap Shot Brendan Kaysa, Lloyd Smitha* aWashington State University, 201 Sloan, Spokane St., Pullman, WA 99164 USA Abstract With the introduction of new materials in ice hockey sticks in the past several decades there is increasing interest in material properties that affect the slap shot. Stick interrogation is complicated due to the variation from player to player and even shot to shot. To isolate the parameters affecting puck speed, a finite element model was employed that simulated a slap shot. The stick was modeled as a linear elastic material and the puck was modeled as a viscoelastic material. Puck speeds found good agreement with experiment and increased slightly with increasing shaft stiffness. The trend was attributed to the constant displacement boundary condition used in the model, which may be more appropriate for low force wrist shots, however. Stick mass moment of inertia had no effect on puck speeds while impacting the puck closer to the toe resulted in higher shot speeds. © 20152015 The The Authors. Authors.

  • Application Packet Woodlandscamp.Org/Apply
    SUMMER STAFF APPLICATION PACKET WOODLANDSCAMP.ORG/APPLY IT’S FOR THE KING. A NOTE FROM BIG JON MISSION, VISION, & VALUES Dear Prospective Staffer, Do you want your summer to count for something? Do you want to invest a season of your life in a cause bigger than yourself? Do you want to live in incredible Christian community? Do you want to grow spiritually and develop as a leader? Do you want to have the most impactful, unforgettable summer of your life? Then we want you! If I may, let me speak first to your fears. In my experience, two key fears often keep students like you from giving a summer or two of their college career to the Lord. The first is a fear of the unknown. You (like many of your peers) may be thinking, I’d love to work at camp, but… I’ve got a school bill to pay…or I should probably take summer classes…or I need to think about my career…or I have a boyfriend/girlfriend back home. While those things may be true, focusing on temporal (albeit important) unknowns can keep you from being and doing all that God has planned for you. The second is a fear of missing out. There are likely several months still before summer, meaning it’s tempting to think about the potential that a “better opportunity” might arise. If God leads you to apply at Woodlands, do it and don’t look back. As my friend Shaunti Feldhan says, “Keeping your options open leads to anxiousness because you are worrying about the what-ifs or ‘What am I missing?’ You’re unsettled.

  • Force Measures at the Hand-Stick Interface During Ice Hockey Slap
    Force Measures at the Hand-Stick Interface during Ice Hockey Slap and Wrist Shots Lisa Zane Department of Physical Education and Kinesiology McGill University 475 Pine Avenue West Montreal, Quebec, Canada H2W 1S4 May 2012 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Science © Lisa Zane, 2012 Acknowledgements I would like to thank a number of individuals who helped me kick-start this project when it seemed impossible, and see it to its end. First and foremost, I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr. David Pearsall, whose optimism, guidance, extensive knowledge, and encouragement were instrumental in the birth and progression of this project. I would also like to thank my “co-supervisor”, Dr. Rene Turcotte, for his input on this project, and for his impeccable shooting accuracy. Yannick Michaud-Paquette was an invaluable resource, as his technical expertise, creativity, patience, and ability to teach his many skills helped me on countless occasions when I saw no end in sight. Ryan Ouckama helped greatly in the development of the force sensing system used for this project and was always full of great ideas. I would also like to thank the rest of the Bmech Boys for the shooting competitions, the territorial lunch time hockey arguments, and also for their support and insight along the way. A big thank you goes to the McGill Martlets and Redmen, and every one of my participants, who were all very cooperative and expressed sincere interest in this study. I greatly appreciate the work of Lainie Smith, for her tenacity and willingness to help with the intricacies of this project.
