  • Game, Set, Watched: Governance, Social Control and Surveillance in Professional Tennis
    GAME, SET, WATCHED: GOVERNANCE, SOCIAL CONTROL AND SURVEILLANCE IN PROFESSIONAL TENNIS By Marie-Pier Guay A thesis submitted to the Department of Sociology in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada November, 2013 Copyright © Marie-Pier Guay, 2013 Abstract Contrary to many major sporting leagues such as the NHL, NFL, NBA, and MLB, or the Olympic Games as a whole, the professional tennis industry has not been individually scrutinized in terms of governance, social control, and surveillance practices. This thesis presents an in-depth account of the major governing bodies of the professional tennis circuit with the aim of examining how they govern, control, constrain, and practice surveillance on tennis athletes and their bodies. Foucault’s major theoretical concepts of disciplinary power, governmentality, and bio-power are found relevant today and can be enhanced by Rose’s ethico-politics model and Haggerty and Ericson’s surveillant assemblage. However, it is also shown how Foucault, Rose, and Haggerty and Ericson’s different accounts of “modes of governing” perpetuate sociological predicaments of professional tennis players within late capitalism. These modes of surveillance are founded on a meritocracy based on the ATP and WTA rankings systems. A player’s ranking affects how he or she is governed, surveilled, controlled, and even punished. Despite ostensibly promoting tennis athletes’ health protection and wellbeing, the systems of surveillance, governance, and control rely on a biased and capitalistically-driven meritocracy that actually jeopardizes athletes’ health and contributes to social class divisions, socio- economic inequalities, gender discrimination, and media pressure.

  • Physics of Tennis Lesson 4 Energy
    The Physics of Tennis Lesson 4: Energy changes when a ball interacts with different surfaces Unit Overview: In this unit students continue to develop understanding of what can be at first glance a complicated system, the game of tennis. In this activity we have taken two components of the game of tennis, the ball and court, to see if we can model the interactions between them. This activity focuses on the energy interactions between ball and court. Objectives: Students will be able to- • Describe what forces interact when the ball hits a surface. • Understand what changes occur when potential and kinetic energy conversion is taking place within a system. At the high school level students should include connections to the concept of “work =FxD” and calculations of Ek = ½ 2 mv and Ep =mgh according to the conservation of energy principal. • Identify the types of energy used in this system. (restricted to potential & kinetic energy) • Comparative relative energy losses for typical court compositions. Lesson Time Required: Four class periods Next Generation Science/Common Core Standards: • NGSS: HS-PS3-1.Create a computational model to calculate the change in the energy of one component in a system when the change in energy of the other component(s) and energy flows in and out of the system are known. • CCSS.Math. Content: 8.F.B.4 Use functions to model relationships between quantities. • Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph.

Realizado por: Pablo Demares Directora de la Carrera de Periodismo: Lic. Erica Walter Tutor de la tesis monográfica: Lic. Norberto Beladrich Asesor metodológico: Prof. Leonardo Cozza Asignatura: Tesina Buenos Aires, 26 de mayo de 2010 [email protected] DNI: 31.685.490 15-6226-4051 0 ABSTRACT El doping y las apuestas ilegales en el tenis se han convertido en los aspectos extradeportivos de la competencia profesional con mayor repercusión en los últimos 15 años. En ese contexto, los medios de comunicación se han encargado de incluir en su contenido artículos de diversos estilos con el objetivo de realizar una cobertura periodística acabada e investigaciones profundas. Sobre ellos será aplicado el Análisis Crítico del Discurso (ACD) postulado, entre otros, por el lingüista y profesor de la Universidad Pompeu Fabra, de Barcelona, Teun Van Dijk. El mismo consiste en un enfoque interdisciplinar que permite detectar en los discursos (a fines de este trabajo, textos de diarios) cómo se reproduce la dominación de un grupo sobre otro y la resistencia que interponen los discursos. De manera más particular, el ACD observa las variantes del racismo en las noticias. Así, su teoría fue aplicada para descubrir que, pese a la existencia de términos que transmitan vetas discriminatorias, los artículos no afectan la interpretación de la información ni influyen en las opiniones u acciones de los lectores.
