It seems ages since our last home 27 Widnes L BIRKENHEAD PARK L WARRINGTON W game. The RFU, in their wisdom, gives a two/three week break in league rugby at our level over the November 3 WIRRAL W Caldy L Glossop L MANCHESTER W Christmas period. I understand some of the logic but, with finances tight, Christmas is an opportunity for 10 SANDBACH many clubs to bring in much needed gate and bar income with interesting games. In the past local derby 17 Fleetwood W CHESTER L WIRRAL W Holmes Chapel L 24 CARLISLE L Altrincham Kersal Chester ACTON NOMADS matches against the likes of Sale and Manchester brought out the crowds and I’ve no doubt the same would apply today. Fortunately this year, thanks to the efforts of Tim Street, Geoff Crawford and others , we December 1 managed to put on an entertaining game, mid holiday, between the Wilmslow Under 21’s and Wilmslow 8 Altrincham Kersal L OSWESTRY Linley & Kidsgrove 15 Vale of Lune W SEDGLEY PARK W WINNINGTON PARK Ashton on Mersey Barbarians on the only good night of the break. Forty five young players with a sprinkling of oldies put on a 22 very entertaining game for a reasonable crowd and noisy bar afterwards. The result was a 22 – 22 draw with 29 Ollie McCall ‘missing’ a kick in front of the posts to win the game in the last second - no pressure!! It’s a January 5 ROCHDALE Liverpool St. Helens Moore MACCLESFIELD fixture we will repeat next year. 12 Liverpool St. H MARPLE Whitchurch 19 KIRKBY L’DALE Bowdon 26 Leigh ALTRINCHAM K Sandbach 2012 ended on a relative high and a bit of reorganisation! The high was a good win for the Wolves at Vale February 2 of Lune 24 – 25. It wasn’t as close as the score suggests.

The Bateman league is 23 FLEETWOOD the first half of the Wirral HOLMES CHAPEL now split into two conferences and we now hope for more equal games. 30 season in the top or bottom half of the April 6 Carlisle league. CHESTER Acton Nomads The reorganisation was brought about by the resignation of our head coach, Brendan Thomas to join Sale 13 ALTRINCHAM K Oswestry LINLEY & KIDSGR’E 20 Anselmians BURNAGE Crewe & Nantwich FC. Fortunately we still have Rick Jones, Richard Hughes and Craig Cooper to call upon and this trio will be 27 in charge for the remainder of the season. The pyramid structure of coaching put in place over the last two seasons and reinforced by Brendan during his tenure here has clearly been vindicated. The Wolves are Senior Colts (U19s) and Junior Colts (U17s) showing, especially at Vale of Lune, that they have adapted to Brendan’s systems and I have every Raging Bull Senior Colts League : Division A Junior Colts League : Division B confidence that this can work well through the the second half of the season. As for Brendan, he has taken Seniors Juniors Seniors Juniors on an exciting challenge at Sale FC and he goes there with our best wishes.

Kings Road David Barker Vice Captain Ben Day Kersal, however, did in the final half hour when they had the better of the proceedings to come back from a Wilmslow Hon. Club Chairman Dave Scanlon 12-3 deficit and to force a match winning try in the closing minutes. It was as close as that. SK9 5PZ Director of Rugby Daz Lucas Hon. Secretary Barry Fisher The home side had much to thank their No.10 James Nettleton for. He kicked two penalties at a crucial Tel : 01625 522274 Club Coach stage in the second half to haul his side back into contention. The first was close to halfway and in the cold Hon. Treasurer Mike Blackett Tony Kersh damp and murky conditions then prevailing was no easy kick. It was Nettleton too who was up to charge Team Manager Brendan Thomas down a frantic clearing kick on the Wolves line very late in the game and to get the all important touch down. Vikings Captain Club Website The Wolves had started much the brighter of the two sides and despite conceding an early lineout and Oliver Mooney www pitchero.com/clubs/wilmslow scrum, there was a positive urgency about their play as they took the game to their opponents. It wasn’t long Hawks Captain Matt Tucker before an impressive forward drive was harshly ruled by the referee to have been held up.

Several promising moves followed. Alex Taylor’s fine break from Hon.

    Foot and Ball Impact Characteristics in AF Kicking I Comparisons of Foot To

    Foot and ball impact characteristics in AF kicking Comparisons of foot to ball interaction in Australian Football in elite males By James Peacock ID: 3855335 Submitted for the degree of Bachelor of Applied Science (Honours) in Human Movement Supervisors: Dr. Kevin Ball Dr. Simon Taylor Dr. Hiroyuki Nunome College of Sport and Exercise Science Victoria University 9th October, 2013 I Foot and ball impact characteristics in AF kicking Abstract Drop punt kicking is considered the most important skill in Australian Football (AF) and impact is the most crucial element in performance. Previous research on impact in AF kicking has used pre and post ball contact data to calculate average foot-ball characteristics but there has been no evaluation of the phase during impact. Important information has been found in soccer performing this analysis and importantly some parameters such as force have been found to be two times average force. The aims of the study were to evaluate foot and ball velocity during impact and compare impact differences between distance and accuracy kicks. Eleven elite AF players were fitted with reflective markers on the kick leg and foot and kicked drop punt kicks with their preferred foot attempting to hit a 20m target (accuracy) and performing maximal distance kicks. Two-dimensional 4000Hz video recorded impact and from this footage, shank, foot and ball markers were tracked using ProAnalyst software. Distance kicks displayed significantly larger foot and ball velocity, contact distance, average and peak force, work and impulse while accuracy kicks exhibited larger contact time and greater plantarflexion at the ankle throughout impact.

  • Kick Impact Characteristics for Different Rugby League Kicks

    Kick Impact Characteristics for Different Rugby League Kicks

    KICK IMPACT CHARACTERISTICS FOR DIFFERENT RUGBY LEAGUE KICKS Kevin Ball School of Sport and Exercise Science, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia Kicking is becoming increasingly important in rugby league and one of the most important aspects of kicking is the nature of impact. This study examined impact characteristics for five rugby league kicks – the goalshot, the punt kick, the dropkick, the grubber and the ‘bomb’. Seven elite players performed these kicks while being videoed (6000Hz). Digitised data of nine points (five on the kick leg, four on the ball) were used to quantify parameters near and during impact. Rugby league kicks produced a smaller time in contact and a larger amount of work compared to kicks in other sports. Differences also existed between the five types of rugby league kick tested in terms of ball to foot ratio and foot and ball positioning at impact. These differences between kicks within the same sport highlight the need to evaluate different kick types separately within a sport. KEYWORDS: Ball to foot, Drop kick, Goalshot, INTRODUCTION: Kicking has become increasingly important in rugby league. Where once the kick was used to get out of defense and attacking kicks were predominantly ‘bombs’ (a high trajectory into the attacking scoring zone that gave attacking players time to get under it) recent years has seen the emergence of more precise kicks to wide receivers across the ground. The kicking game of National Rugby League team the Melbourne Storm is considered to be a key reason for their success in gaining four grand finals in a row and in 2007, more than a third of their tries were scored from kicks (Ball, 2007).

    Kick to Score by Steve Gough (

    KICK TO SCORE BY STEVE GOUGH (www.classconversion.co.uk) The author is an RFU Assessor/Tutor and Level 3 coach, who is currently coaching Lancaster University, Lancashire 20s and the kickers at Preston Grasshoppers. He runs tag rugby and core skills classes at local schools and plans to run more kicking schools for children aged 10 - 14 at Easter. He has future plans for setting up a summer sports camp based in the North West, which will cover all sports - but mainly rugby. He can be contacted at [email protected] I wouldn’t normally advocate kicking the ball away in opponents’ 22, but in the modern game, kicking to score has become almost the preferred option now of teams trying to break down defences. Never has it been quite so prominent than when France played New Zealand in the 1999 Rugby World Cup semi-final. New Zealand were the outstanding team of the tournament, not only in attack but even more impressively in defence. Teams just couldn’t break down the All Black defence – that is until the risk taking, run the ball at all cost French played them. How were they to break down this defence? Simple really - if you can’t go through a team with ball in hand, the alternative is to run through them without the ball, but only when the ball has already gone past them. This can be achieved by a chip over, grubber through or kick high to the corner. Since that, World Cup international teams have used this method to great effect.
