Without exception, all students are expected to attend class in appropriate attire that allows for full participation. On sparring days, girls who box must wear a sports bra. E. Class Policies For the course to be a successful and positive experience for all students, please adhere to the following course policies: i. Do not be late for class. Be in the room and ready for participation at 10:00 each class period. Dress appropriately for each class period unless instructed otherwise. ii. Treat others as you would want to be treated. In boxing, as in martial arts, respect for others is extremely important. iii. The class is relaxed, but horsing around will not be tolerated. Listen to all instruction as it is given for your safety and the safety of others around you. iv. No one is expected to be an outstanding boxer. However, through effort on your part, you can learn what it takes to be a good amateur boxer and learn about many aspects of the sport. v. When you participate in sparring, you will conduct yourself with fair play in mind at all times. The referee has charge of the activity, the boxers do not. The third man in the ring has the final say on all issues. Do not argue. vi. Make sure all equipment is picked up at the end of the class session and that you do not leave any personal property behind. vii. Do not wear jewelry of any kind to class. 3 of 11 F. Assessment of Student Learning This section will explain what is expected for final course evaluation. 1. Quizzes and Worksheets (20% of total points) Students will be asked to judge two amateur bouts on tape. You will also be asked to judge one professional bout. The amateur bouts are from the finals of the Michigan Golden Gloves in Grand Rapids, Michigan. You will judge these bouts according to amateur rules and point scoring criteria. The professional bout will be judged according to professional judging criteria. 2. In-class Participation (70% of total points) You may miss one class without penalty and there is one opportunity for extra credit. Students who add this class before the third class period (Oct. 19) will not have absences up to that date counted against their final grade. There are 14 class periods and missing a class period is a deduction of 2 points. Your participation is very necessary to have a successful class for everyone. We will pair up at times so you need to be present to help others. People are counting on you to be there so do not disappoint your classmates. Point deductions can also occur due to disrespectful conduct, leaving early, and tardiness. 3. Out-of-Class Assignments (10% of total points) You should visit a boxing club in the Phoenix area. This will give you exposure to being in a ring (you are not required to spar) and seeing how a real boxing gym operates. I would recommend the following facilities. Central Boxing Gym is located at 17th Ave. and Van Buren. Both amateur and pros train there and it is a throwback to boxing gyms of the past. Club SAR is located at Hayden and Camelback in Scottsdale. It does have a ring and is well equipped, but does not have an amateur boxing program any longer. Once and a while an amateur or professional boxer will workout there. You are allowed to get in the ring and do some shadow boxing and workout. There might be a small admittance fee for both facilities. There are other gyms in the area and you are welcome to check them out, but try to go to a gym where you can spend some time inside a regulation size ring so you get a feel for what it is like. After you have made your visit, please write up a short paper detailing your experience, what you did, and how amateur boxing might be a good activity for some kids to participate in, especially in after-school hours. This assignment is due no later than the last day of class (Session A: 10/5; Session B: 11/30). 4 of 11 4. Extra Credit You may visit a boxing gym outside of ASU up to two times and receive a maximum of 5 extra credit points. Just write up a paper on the experiences, the dates you attended and your reaction to each visit and hand it in no later than the last day of class. 93% and above A 83% - 92% B 73% - 82% C 63% - 72% D 62% or lower F PAC Statement of Risk and Responsibility Risk is associated with many of life’s activities including the Physical Activity Course (PAC). Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College (MLFTC) and the Physical Education Program will minimize these risks by providing safe physical activity venues, capable instruction, and appropriate equipment. It is highly recommended that you purchase student health/accident insurance policy for yourself. These are available through the University, private carriers, or in many cases, through a family policy. If you choose to be/remain uninsured, relatively minor accidents and/or health problems can lead to great expense. If you have a condition that might affect your participation in this activity course, please inform your instructor by fully completing the “Personal Health History Form” provided early on in this course syllabus. Should you ever become injured or ill during class, do not leave class without notifying the instructor. Any student who might need special accommodation in order to successfully complete the course should meet with the instructor as soon as possible. Injuries from participation in this course could occur from punching or blocking a punch. In comparison with other sports and other activities, injuries are relatively uncommon in this particular course. Risk of injury can be minimized with careful attention to class safety procedures, wearing appropriate attire, following instructor directions, and by being aware of one’s surroundings. 5 of 11 G. General Course Procedures and Notes Cell phones Please turn your cell phone to “OFF.” If you believe you have a legitimate reason to keep your phone on during class, please notify the instructor (e.g. pregnant wife/partner who is due at any moment). POSITIVELY NO TEXTING DURING CLASS AT ANY TIME! Course dress code 1. ALWAYS BE DRESSED FOR ACTIVITY. Your top should be sleeveless and you must wear gym shoes. You do not have to wear boxing boots. Wear your hand wraps at all times you are working out. 2. OPEN-TOED SHOES, FLIP-FLOPS AND JEANS are considered inappropriate dress. 3. ALL head gear should be removed unless you are wearing a head gear for sparring. You must wear a groin guard, mouthpiece and head gear to spar. In addition to these items, girls must wear a sports bra. Everything is provided except the mouthpieces and sports bras. Girls will wear a breast protector while sparring. Students with disabilities Arizona State University is committed to providing students with disabilities an equal opportunity to benefit from its programs, services, and activities.

While numerous studies Received 5 November 2015 have investigated the causal effects of feedback on motor learning, an analysis of real-time feedback Received in revised form provided during training and competitive sporting environments is lacking. Therefore, the feedback 8 April 2016 provided by 12 boxing coaches to athletes between rounds of the 2015 Australian Boxing Championships Accepted 11 April 2016 was recorded and transcribed. The feedback statements were then analyzed according to three feedback Available online 12 April 2016 variables that have been shown to be critical for optimizing performance: Attentional focus (external, internal, neutral), autonomy support (autonomy-supportive, controlling, neutral), and feedback valence Keywords: Instructions (positive, negative, neutral). Collectively, 445 feedback statements provided during 25 bouts, of which 14 Augmented-feedback were won and 11 were lost, were analyzed for each of the three categories.

  • Inertial Sensors for Performance Analysis in Combat Sports: a Systematic Review
    sports Article Inertial Sensors for Performance Analysis in Combat Sports: A Systematic Review Matthew TO Worsey , Hugo G Espinosa * , Jonathan B Shepherd and David V Thiel School of Engineering and Built Environment, Griffith University, Brisbane, QLD 4111, Australia; matthew.worsey@griffithuni.edu.au (M.T.O.W.); j.shepherd@griffith.edu.au (J.B.S.); d.thiel@griffith.edu.au (D.V.T.) * Correspondence: h.espinosa@griffith.edu.au; Tel.: +61-7-3735-8432 Received: 5 December 2018; Accepted: 18 January 2019; Published: 21 January 2019 Abstract: The integration of technology into training and competition sport settings is becoming more commonplace. Inertial sensors are one technology being used for performance monitoring. Within combat sports, there is an emerging trend to use this type of technology; however, the use and selection of this technology for combat sports has not been reviewed. To address this gap, a systematic literature review for combat sport athlete performance analysis was conducted. A total of 36 records were included for review, demonstrating that inertial measurements were predominately used for measuring strike quality. The methodology for both selecting and implementing technology appeared ad-hoc, with no guidelines for appropriately analysing the results. This review summarises a framework of best practice for selecting and implementing inertial sensor technology for evaluating combat sport performance. It is envisaged that this review will act as a guide for future research into applying technology to combat sport. Keywords: combat sport; technology; inertial sensor; performance 1. Introduction In recent years, technological developments have resulted in the production of small, unobtrusive wearable inertial sensors.

  • Guidance Towards a Full Return to Amateur Boxing 15 May 2020
    OFF THE ROPES: GUIDANCE TOWARDS A FULL RETURN TO AMATEUR BOXING 15 MAY 2020 England Boxing’s number one priority is the safety and wellbeing of our clubs, members and staff, and as such, we will endeavour to communicate regularly and directly with our clubs and members, and will issue further guidance as and when more information becomes available. Further to the Prime Minister’s announcement on May 10, Government guidance on the phased return of sport and recreation and the England Boxing COVID-19 Update issued on May 12, set out below is a further update, including considerations for amateur boxing clubs and members, as we move tentatively towards a full return to amateur boxing in England. By its very nature, boxing poses a greater risk from COVID-19 than most other sporting activities. Unfortunately, it is therefore likely that the full return of amateur boxing will occur later than many other sports. It should also be noted that, as per Government guidance, professional boxing may be permissible sooner than amateur boxing for broadcast purposes. Introduction As with all communities globally, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a devastating effect on amateur boxing in England, leading to the closure of clubs, the postponement or cancellation of regional and national championships, box cups and club shows and a range of negative impacts on participants, volunteers and staff. Above all, England Boxing recognises and pays tribute to those within the boxing community who have lost their lives and their loved ones. Furthermore, there has been significant disruption both individually and collectively from a physical, mental and financial perspective, with many clubs experiencing immediate hardship as well as ongoing concern about whether – or when – they will be able to re-open.

  • BOXING PROMOTION IS a KNOCKOUT St
    BOXING PROMOTION IS A KNOCKOUT St. Louis Post-Dispatch (MO) - March 23, 2003 Author/Byline: Jake Wagman Of The Post-Dispatch Edition: FIVE STAR LIFT Section: METRO Page: C1 Readability: 9-12 grade level (Lexile: 1130) * The City Museum draws hundreds of people to the exhibitions, which were designed to highlight downtown activities. All it took for several hundred people to stop thinking about the war in Iraq was to watch a dozen or so part-time pugilists pound each other for three rounds at a time. The bouts, plus some beer and garage-band music, brought spectators to the Hoosierweight Championship, a sort of "Rocky" meets "Jackass" boxing competition. After ducking some legal jabs, organizers presented six intense matches of weekend warrior combat Saturday evening on the grounds of the City Museum, 701 North 15th Street. Shock and awe, it was not. But the fights did hit their target: to bring people downtown and to create attention for the controlled, extremely amateur fighting that, in St. Louis anyway, has been confined to back yards during holiday barbecues. "Part of the appeal is that the people are not very good at it," said spectator Dave Rutledge, 28, a Web designer. "Kind of like, 'Who knows what's going to happen next?'" Added Eleanor Cameron, 26: "It's kind of traumatic seeing your friends getting punched in the face. Not injured. Just beaten. Resoundingly beaten." But don't tell these boxers - some of whom have been training for months - they are not the real deal. Each match, except for the five- round finale, had a limit of three, three-minute rounds.
