Stiffness Variation in Hockey Sticks and the Impact on Stick Performance

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. -
Dear Youth Batting Helmet Manufacturer, As the Popularity Of
Dear Youth Batting Helmet Manufacturer, As the popularity of face protectors (c-flap, etc.) increases throughout baseball and softball, Little League® International has begun to receive inquiries from our families, players, and volunteers as to whether or not they’re permitted in Little League play. The safety of all our participants is our utmost concern, and, like the vast majority of youth organizations, Little League requires our batters to wear helmets that meet National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment (NOCSAE) specifications and bear the NOCSAE stamp. As face protectors, like the “c-flap,” are additions to a helmet, which require for holes to be drilled in most helmets to affix protector, Little League International contacted NOCSAE for guidance. On May 8, 2018, NOCSAE issued a release, which includes the following information: Products designed to be added to previously certified helmets for baseball, softball, football, lacrosse and other sports are being marketed and sold to consumers. Whether intended to be general improvements or expansions of the helmet’s protective coverage or ability, or to collect impact data, the addition of such products to a helmet previously certified as meeting the appropriate NOCSAE standard will make the certification voidable by the helmet manufacturer. Such additions to the helmet create a new and untested model, as defined in the NOCSAE standards. For many years NOCSAE standards have defined a helmet model as a helmet “intended to be identical in every way, except for size.” Any changes, additions or alterations of the model, except for size or color or graphics, even if made by the original manufacturer, requires that a new model name be created, and a separate certification testing data for that new model. -
Variations in the Field Hockey Swing Explained by The
VARIATIONS IN THE FIELD HOCKEY SWING EXPLAINED BY THE KINEMATIC SEQUENCE By ANDREA DAVARO B.S., University of Colorado Colorado Springs, 2015 A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Colorado Colorado Springs in the partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Sciences Department of Biology 2018 © 2018 Copyright by Andrea Davaro All Rights Reserved This thesis for the Master of Sciences degree by Andrea Davaro has been approved for the Department of Biology by Jeffrey Broker, Chair Robert Jacobs Jay Dawes 5/7/2018 Date ii Davaro, Andrea (MSc., Biology) Variations in the field hockey swing explained by the kinematic sequence Thesis directed by Associate Professor Jeffrey P. Broker ABSTRACT Attempts to biomechanically analyze field hockey swings have been sparse. More so, the degree to which proximal-distal kinematic sequencing is expressed in field hockey swings is unknown. The aim of this study was to determine if kinematic sequencing is incorporated into field hockey swings, and to evaluate segmental contributions to stick speed across two swing types: classic grip and choke-grip drives. Kinematic data were collected on 10 high-level field hockey players (5 males and 5 females). Pelvis, thorax, arms and stick kinematics were quantified (3-axis rotations and translations), using a 12 sensor, 240 Hz, Polhemus-based AMM 3D Motion Analysis System (Phoenix, AZ). Subjects hit 10 to 15 shots of each swing type into a net, and provided feedback regarding the quality of their swings. Good and very good swings for each subject were analyzed. Of 37 classic grip swings analyzed, average stick head velocity was 72.4 +/- 11.6 mph, and 37.8% of the swings demonstrated the standard proximal to distal downswing sequence of pelvis, thorax, arm, and then the stick (expressed as rotational velocities). -

Defeating the Undead

The first rule of the Zombie Chasers is that we do not speak about the Zombie Chasers…. Just kidding! It’s pretty simple, dudes: The first real rule is to steer clear of the living dead! Duh! If they bite you, you’ll totally turn into a messed-up looking freak, just like Zoe did. KNOW THY ENEMY: It could be your creepy next-door neighbor, the weirdo cashier at the mini-mart, or even your own mom and dad. But don’t be fooled, there’s no such thing as a nice zombie. A. How to Spot ’Em: Do you see the guy limping around like he just sprained both ankles? Can you hear him grunting and snarling? Do you smell that odor: kinda like hot garbage and rotten eggs? It’s not your grandpa. It’s a zombie! B. The Zombie Diet: You! And your braaaains! C. How They Hunt: Because of their supersonic hearing and brain-gobbling instincts, they can home in on their next meal, which unfortunately is in your skull. STRATEGY & TACTICS: There’s just one: knock ’em out cold and then run away as fast as you can! This is not about pride, people. It’s about survival. You’re gonna need a weapon, too. A baseball bat is Zack’s fave, but I prefer the field-hockey stick. My pal Ozzie uses these awesome nunchucks to take down mad zombies at a time—BAP, BAP, BAP—it’s so cool! Zoe’s weapon is her face! SUPPLIES: Proper nourishment is a must. -

Baseball Batter's Helmet Fact Sheet
GET A HEADS UP ON Batter’s Helmet Safety Start with the Right Size: BRING THE ATHLETE Bring your athlete with you when buying a new helmet to make sure that you can check for a good fit. HEAD SIZE To find out your athlete’s head size, wrap a soft tape measure around the athlete’s head, just above their eyebrows and ears. Make sure the tape measure stays level from front to back. (If you don’t have a soft tape measure, you can use a string and then measure it against a ruler.) SIZES WILL VARY Helmet sizes often will vary from brand-to-brand, so it’s important to check out the helmet brand’s fit and sizing charts to find out what helmet size fits your athlete’s head size. While there is no concussion- Get a Good Fit: proof helmet, a batter’s helmet GENERAL FIT A batter’s helmet should fit snugly all around, with no spaces can help protect between the pads and the athlete’s head. Your athlete should NOT wear anything under his or her batter’s helmet. This includes a your athlete from baseball hat! a serious brain or ASK head injury. Ask your athlete how the helmet feels on their head. While it needs to have a snug fit, a helmet that is too tight can cause headaches. The information HAIRSTYLE An athlete should try on the helmet with the hairstyle he or she will in this handout wear for practices and games. Helmet fit can change if the athlete’s hairstyle changes considerably. -
2015 NFHS Softball Rule Changes 1-6-1 the Batting Helmet Shall
2015 NFHS Softball Rule Changes 1-6-1 The batting helmet shall not have a non-glare or mirror-like surface. Rationale: The chrome or mirror like surface of the batting helmet is illegal due to its distracting nature which may be dangerous to other players. 1-7-1 The catcher’s helmet shall not have a non-glare or mirror-like surface. Rationale: The chrome or mirror like surface of the catcher's helmet is illegal due to its distracting nature which may be dangerous to other players. 2015 NFHS Editorial Changes 1-6-1 The exterior warning label may be affixed…or embossed (at the time point of manufacture). Rationale: To update the language 1-6-6 The phrase, “Meets NOCSAE Standard at the time of manufacture”… Rationale: To update the language 1-7-1 The catcher shall wear a catcher’s helmet…that meets the NOCSAE standard at the time of manufacture. Rationale: To update the language 5-1-4 After a dead-ball situation, the ball becomes live when it is held by the pitcher on the pitcher's plate and the umpire calls and/or signals "Play Ball." and gives a beckoning hand signal. Rationale: Current wording does not reflect current practice. Would clarify Rule 8-6-18 as to whether ball is live or dead should runner(s) leave their bases when pitcher is outside the circle. Encourage umpires to use Signal “B” page 87 “Official NFHS Softball Signals” chart. 7-1-1&2 Pen 2 When an improper batter becomes a runner or is put out and the defensive team appeals to the umpire before the next pitch (legal or illegal), or prior to an intentional base on balls (S.P.), or before all infielders have left fair territory and the catcher vacates her normal fielding position the infielders leave the diamond if a half-inning is ending. -
