The sample of the current study consists of athletes from women’s national handball teams (n=32, age=17.8±1.1 years, body height 166.6±4.5 cm, body mass 65.0±5.4 kg) and volleyball (n=16, age=18.0±1.4 years, body height 176.5±5.7 cm, body mass 68.1±7.4 kg). The measurements included five skin folds thicknesses (biceps, triceps, subscapular, suprailiac and calf), three circumferences [calf and biceps girth (relaxed and tensed)] end two widths (femur, humerus). In the initial somatometric parameters, the athletes exhibit higher performance triceps (p<0.001), subscapular (p<0.001) skinfold (mm) and biceps girth (relaxed) (cm) while volleyball players exhibit body height (cm) (p<0.05) and humeral diameter (cm) (p<0.05). In the secondary parameters, handball players express statistically significant body mass indices (kg/m²) (p<0.05), body fat (%) (p<0.002), sum of 5 skinfold (mm) (p<0.001), while volleyball players express fat free mass (kg) (p<0.001).

  • Pentathlon Information
    GIRLS AND BOYS PENTATHLON Due to athletes wishing to qualify for New Balance in the multi-events, we have introduced a Pentathlon so that they can achieve these marks. With many athletes not having the opportunity to compete in this event very often, we have instituted the following qualification procedures and parameters. • EVENT IS CAPPED AT 12 COMPETITORS - FIRST COME-FIRST SERVED • ENTRY FEE IS $50 Per Athlete. This does not cover individual events. Only Pentathlon. • Entry Fees must be paid at packet pickup to receive a packet. No Online Payment. • 10 SPOTS WILL BE RESERVED FOR THE FIRST 10 AUTOMATIC QUALIFIERS WHO REGISTER IF YOU PARTICIPATED IN THE FOLLOWING EVENTS: o 2019 Your State High School Championships Heptathlon/Decathlon (any class) o 2019 AAU/USATF Junior Olympics Heptathlon/Decathlon o 2019 NBIN Nationals Pentathlon or NBON Nationals Heptathlon/Decathlon • The final 2 spots will be reserved for the highest point scorers who did not receive one of the first 10 spots. This allows competitors who have not completed a pentathlon/decathlon or were not one of the first 10 to qualify automatically. They will be ranked by the standard decathlon scoring tables across the events available in the Pentathlon. For instance, an athlete has only competed in the Shot Put and the 60m Hurdles but not the High Jump/Long Jump or 1000m. They can use those two events to gain a point total. We will rank all those athletes point totals and select the top 2 competitors by point total (or more if less than 10 automatically would qualify).

  • Kyudo - the Way of the Bow
    Kyudo - the Way of the Bow Centuries ago in Japan, archery was regarded as the highest discipline of the Samurai warrior. Then, as the bow lost its significance as a weapon of war, and under the influence of Buddhism, Shinto, Daoism and Confucianism, Japanese archery evolved into Kyudo, the "Way of the Bow", a powerful and highly refined contemplative practice. Kyudo, as taught by Kanjuro Shibata XX, is not a competitive sport and marksmanship is regarded as relatively unimportant. According to Shibata Sensei, a master of the Heki Ryu Bishu Chikurin-ha school of Kyudo, the ultimate goal of Kyudo is to polish the mind - the same as in sitting meditation. "One is not polishing one's shooting style or technique, but the mind. The dignity of shooting is the important point. This is how Kyudo differs from the common approach to Kanjuro Shibata Sensei at Kai. (ca. 1990) archery. In Kyudo there is no hope. Hope is not the point. The point is that through long which the practitioner has the opportunity to and genuine practice your natural dignity as see the mind more clearly. The target a human being comes out. This natural becomes a mirror which reflects the qualities dignity is already in you, but it is covered up of heart and mind at the moment of the by a lot of obstacles. When they are cleared arrow's release. away, your natural dignity is allowed to This distinguishes Kyudo from archery shine forth" - Shibata Sensei. where simply hitting the target is the goal. Chogyam Trungpa the renowned Tibetan Kyudo is "Standing meditation", and as meditation master said, "Through Kyudo one such, is a true contemplative art.

Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (November 2011) Martial arts are extensive systems of codified practices and traditions of combat, practiced for a variety of reasons, including self-defense, competition, physical health and fitness, as well as mental and spiritual development. The term martial art has become heavily associated with the fighting arts of eastern Asia, but was originally used in regard to the combat systems of Europe as early as the 1550s. An English fencing manual of 1639 used the term in reference specifically to the "Science and Art" of swordplay. The term is ultimately derived from Latin, martial arts being the "Arts of Mars," the Roman god of war.[1] Some martial arts are considered 'traditional' and tied to an ethnic, cultural or religious background, while others are modern systems developed either by a founder or an association.
