The Effects of Balance Training on Balance Ability in Handball Players
EXERCISE AND QUALITY OF LIFE Research article Volume 4, No. 2, 2012, 15-22 UDC 796.322-051:796.012.266 THE EFFECTS OF BALANCE TRAINING ON BALANCE ABILITY IN HANDBALL PLAYERS Asimenia Gioftsidou , Paraskevi Malliou, Polina Sofokleous, George Pafis, Anastasia Beneka, and George Godolias Department of Physical Education and Sports Science, Democritus University of Thrace, Komotini, Greece Abstract The purpose of the present study was to investigate, the effectiveness of a balance training program in male professional handball players. Thirty professional handball players were randomly divided into experimental and control group. The experimental group (N=15), additional to the training program, followed an intervention balance program for 12 weeks. All subjects performed a static balance test (deviations from the horizontal plane). The results revealed that the 12-week balance training program improved (p<0.01) all balance performance indicators in the experimental group. Thus, a balance training program can increase balance ability of handball players, and could used as a prevent tool for lower limbs muscular skeletal injuries. Keywords: handball players, proprioception, balance training Introduction Handball is one of the most popular European team sports along with soccer, basketball and volleyball (Petersen et al., 2005). The sport medicine literature reports team sports participants, such as handball, soccer, hockey, or basketball players, reported an increased risk of traumatic events, especially to their lower extremity joints (Hawkins, and Fuller, 1999; Meeuwisse et al., 2003; Wedderkopp et al 1997; 1999). Injuries often occur in noncontact situations (Hawkins, and Fuller, 1999; Hertel et al., 2006) resulting in substantial and long-term functional impairments (Zech et al., 2009). -
The Meaning of Yaroomba II
Revisiting the place name meaning of Yaroomba The Gaiarbau, ‘bunya country’ and ‘thick vine scrub’ connections (by Kerry Jones, Arnold Jones, Sean Fleischfresser, Rodney Jones, Lore?a Algar, Helen Jones & Genevieve Jones) The Sunshine Coast region, fiHy years ago, may have had the greatest use of place names within Queensland derived from Aboriginal language words, according to researcher, E.G. Heap’s 1966 local history arQcle, ‘In the Wake of the Rasmen’. In the early days of colonisaon, local waterways were used to transport logs and Qmber, with the use of Aboriginal labour, therefore the term ‘rasmen’. Windolf (1986, p.2) notes that historically, the term ‘Coolum District’ included all the areas of Coolum Beach, Point Arkwright, Yaroomba, Mount Coolum, Marcoola, Mudjimba, Pacific Paradise and Peregian. In the 1960’s it was near impossible to take transport to and access or communicate with these areas, and made that much more difficult by wet or extreme weather. Around this Qme the Sunshine Coast Airport site (formerly the Maroochy Airport) having Mount Coolum as its backdrop, was sQll a Naonal Park (QPWS 1999, p. 3). Figure 1 - 1925 view of coastline including Mount Coolum, Yaroomba & Mudjimba Island north of the Maroochy Estuary In October 2014 the inaugural Yaroomba Celebrates fesQval, overlooking Yaroomba Beach, saw local Gubbi Gubbi (Kabi Kabi) TradiQonal Owner, Lyndon Davis, performing with the yi’di’ki (didgeridoo), give a very warm welcome. While talking about Yaroomba, Lyndon stated this area too was and is ‘bunya country’. Windolf (1986, p.8) writes about the first Qmber-ge?ers who came to the ‘Coolum District’ in the 1860’s. -

Music and Inter-Generational Experiences of Social Change in South Africa
All Mixed Up: Music and Inter-Generational Experiences of Social Change in South Africa Dominique Santos 22113429 PhD Social Anthropology Goldsmiths, University of London All Mixed Up: Music and Inter-Generational Experiences of Social Change in South Africa Dominique Santos 22113429 Thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for a PhD in Social Anthropology Goldsmiths, University of London 2013 Cover Image: Party Goer Dancing at House Party Brixton, Johannesburg, 2005 (Author’s own) 1 Acknowledgements I owe a massive debt to a number of people and institutions who have made it possible for me to give the time I have to this work, and who have supported and encouraged me throughout. The research and writing of this project was made financially possible through a generous studentship from the ESRC. I also benefitted from the receipt of a completion grant from the Goldsmiths Anthropology Department. Sophie Day took over my supervision at a difficult point, and has patiently assisted me to see the project through to submission. John Hutnyk’s and Sari Wastel’s early supervision guided the incubation of the project. Frances Pine and David Graeber facilitated an inspiring and supportive writing up group to formulate and test ideas. Keith Hart’s reading of earlier sections always provided critical and pragmatic feedback that drove the work forward. Julian Henriques and Isaak Niehaus’s helpful comments during the first Viva made it possible for this version to take shape. Hugh Macnicol and Ali Clark ensured a smooth administrative journey, if the academic one was a little bumpy. Maia Marie read and commented on drafts in the welcoming space of our writing circle, keeping my creative fires burning during dark times. -

Idolerna Kommer Till Lidköping
Idolerna kommer till Lidköping För varje dag fylls Lidköpings Kultur och Porslinsfestivals program på med roliga, spännande, intressanta, nischade, breda, smala, högljudda och lågmälda akter. Vi har tidigare viskat att State of Drama kommer hit. Den gången vill vi ropa ut att två finfina tjejer som startat sin karriär i TV-programmet Idol också kommer; Linnea Henriksson och Amanda Fondell! Amanda Fondell Amanda Fondell, född 1994 i Kristianstads kommun blev Idol-Amanda med hela svenska folket när hon vann Idol 2011. Amanda Fondell tävlade i finalen mot Sveriges Eurovisionbidragsartist Robin Stjernberg. Amanda Fondell fick 52 % av tv-tittarnas röster och vann därmed 2011 års Idol. Efter finalvinsten släppte Amanda fullängdaren ”All this Way” där singeln med samma namn blev en radiohit i alla kanaler. Nu är Amanda aktuell igen med singeln ”Bastard” som fullkomligt osar av hitpotential. Linnea Henriksson Linnea Henriksson är uppvuxen i Halmstad. För de allra flesta blev hon känd som Idol-Linnea då hon kom 4:a i Idol 2010. Men redan innan Idol hade Linnea en musikkarrär på gång. Då menar vi inte att hon bara 9 år gammal stod på scenen redan 1995 i Småstjärnorna. Nej, 2010 - samma år som Linnea var med i Idol - släpptes hon tillsammans med sitt elektrojazzband PRYLF en platta som fick lysande recensioner. Linnéas solokarriär tog dock fart med Idol och 2011 släppte hon sin första solosingel "Väldigt kär/Obegripligt ensam" som hon skrivit tillsammans med Orup. Den blev den första i en rad av hits som Linnea hittills levererat. Några av de andra är "Lyckligare nu" och "Mitt rum i ditt hjärta".
