  • Axiomatic Design of a Football Play-Calling Strategy
    Axiomatic Design of a Football Play-Calling Strategy A Major Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering by _____________________________________________________________ Liam Koenen _____________________________________________________________ Camden Lariviere April 28th, 2016 Approved By: Prof. Christopher A. Brown, Advisor _____________________________________________________________ 1 Abstract The purpose of this MQP was to design an effective play-calling strategy for a football game. An Axiomatic Design approach was used to establish a list of functional requirements and corresponding design parameters and functional metrics. The two axioms to maintain independence and minimize information content were used to generate a final design in the form of a football play card. The primary focus was to develop a successful play-calling strategy that could be consistently repeatable by any user, while also being adaptable over time. Testing of the design solution was conducted using a statistical-based computer simulator. 2 Acknowledgements We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the following people, as they were influential in the successful completion of our project. We would like to thank Professor Christopher A. Brown for his advice and guidance throughout the yearlong project and Richard Henley for sharing his intellect and thought process about Axiomatic Design and the role

  • MOL 2019 Rules and Regulations
    MOL Football Rules and Regulations On behalf of the MOL Board of Directors, we would like to welcome you to MOL, and thank you for taking your time to volunteer, coach or referee. It is our intention that all board members, coaches and referees read and understand this document, so that all of us begin the season with the same understanding of our rules and how we intend to referee the games. The objective of MOL football, our rules, and how we referee the games, are very simple: ● Create a fun and enjoyable experience for all of our players ● Promote fair play ● Protect the safety and wellbeing of all players involved ● Achieve these objectives by communicating with and educating the players/coaches first, and by penalizing as a last resort Coaches’ Code of Conduct The MOL Board of Directors has high expectations for our coaches. Not only do we expect you to provide a wonderful experience for your team members, but we also expect you to be examples for your players, your parents, and our young referees. Therefore: ● We expect coaches to ensure the good sportsmanship of themselves, their players, and their parents. ● We ask that all communication with referees be respectful and only between you and the referee. Communication with referees should be limited to questions and interpretations, not for complaints or attempted influence. Expectations for MOL Referees MOL referees are typically local high school or junior high kids that have previously played MOL. While there is only a minimal up front training program, we do mentor the referees on a weekly basis and set forth the following expectations: ● We expect our referees to be familiar with the rules as presented in this document ● We expect referees to hustle and be involved in every play ● We expect referees to blow the whistle loudly and decisively to signal a play is over ● We expect the ball to be spotted accurately where the flag was pulled ● We expect our referees to talk to the kids and help them learn the rules ● We instruct our referees to call as few penalties as possible.

  • Bailey: ‘Barring Any Setbacks, I’Ll Be out There’
    Bailey: ‘Barring Any Setbacks, I’ll Be Out There’ By Stuart Zaas DenverBroncos.com November 27, 2013 Cornerback Champ Bailey talked about his status for this week’s game at Kansas City. ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – After missing the past four games with a foot injury, cornerback Champ Bailey feels he’s getting closer to making his return this week at Kansas City. Bailey sat out the first five games of the season with a foot injury before reinjuring the foot at Indianapolis in Week 7. The patience required to let the foot heal is something that hasn’t come easily for the 15th-year veteran. “That’s the hardest thing for me,” Bailey said. “Any time something goes wrong, I want to be in there to try to help. But, I have to make sure I take care of my body. The foot is feeling a lot better. I’m going to keep progressing through the week to make sure that I’m ready for Sunday.” Bailey returned to practice on Wed., Nov. 13 and has been limited in each session since. He was listed as doubtful for the Week 11 game versus Kansas City and then questionable for Week 12 at New England. This week, he said his prognosis could be more positive. “I feel like barring any setbacks, I’ll be out there," Bailey said. "That’s the way I’m preparing myself this week – to play. And if nothing goes wrong, I’ll be there.” Bailey has been listening to the doctors’ advice as well as his own body as he rehabilitates the foot.
