Depuis ses premières apparitions en décembre dernier, il a causé le décès de plus de 5400 personnes, touché près de 135 pays, et déporté son épicentre de la Chine vers l’Europe. Touchée, même à un degré moindre, comme de nombreux autres pays, l’Algérie, qui est aux portes de l’Europe, a augmenté son niveau de vigilance, notamment en avançant les vacances scolaires et universitaires et suspendant les manifestations culturelles et sportives. Avec tout cela, l’observance de règles de conduite d’hygiène individuelles demeure le meilleur rempart pour freiner la contamination.

  • Onside: a Reconsideration of Soccer's Cultural Future in the United States
    1 ONSIDE: A RECONSIDERATION OF SOCCER’S CULTURAL FUTURE IN THE UNITED STATES Samuel R. Dockery TC 660H Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin May 8, 2020 ___________________________________________ Matthew T. Bowers, Ph.D. Department of Kinesiology Supervising Professor ___________________________________________ Elizabeth L. Keating, Ph.D. Department of Anthropology Second Reader 2 ABSTRACT Author: Samuel Reed Dockery Title: Onside: A Reconsideration of Soccer’s Cultural Future in the United States Supervising Professors: Matthew T. Bowers, Ph.D. Department of Kinesiology Elizabeth L. Keating, Ph.D. Department of Anthropology Throughout the course of the 20th century, professional sports have evolved to become a predominant aspect of many societies’ popular cultures. Though sports and related physical activities had existed long before 1900, the advent of industrial economies, specifically growing middle classes and ever-improving methods of communication in countries worldwide, have allowed sports to be played and followed by more people than ever before. As a result, certain games have captured the hearts and minds of so many people in such a way that a culture of following the particular sport has begun to be emphasized over the act of actually doing or performing the sport. One needs to look no further than the hours of football talk shows scheduled weekly on ESPN or the myriad of analytical articles published online and in newspapers daily for evidence of how following and talking about sports has taken on cultural priority over actually playing the sport. Defined as “hegemonic sports cultures” by University of Michigan sociologists Andrei Markovits and Steven Hellerman, these sports are the ones who dominate “a country’s emotional attachments rather than merely representing its callisthenic activities.” Soccer is the world’s game.

  • White Paper the Neurological Consequences of Heading in Soccer
    White Paper The Neurological Consequences of Heading in Soccer Robert Cantu, MD, Chris Nowinski & Cliff Robbins, Sports Legacy Institute 1. Introduction Soccer is the world’s most popular sport, with 240 million participants, including eight million youth participants in the United States. Purposefully heading the ball is a legal and encouraged maneuver, and written guidelines from soccer governing bodies recommend introducing heading at age ten. However, the guidelines are not widely enforced, and soccer players have reported beginning to engage in heading as young as age three.1 The Sports Legacy and the Institute of Sports Law and Ethics at Santa Clara University recently partnered to educate the public on the risks of heading in children. Research on the short and long-term consequences of concussions and subconcussive brain injury reveals that brain trauma can have significant neurological consequences, especially in youth. Former Women’s World Cup Champions Brandi Chastain, Cindy Parlow Cone, and Joy Fawcett no longer allow the players they coach, or their own children, to head the ball before high school. They have come to this conclusion based on the following evidence. 2. Risk of Concussions At least 30% of concussions in soccer are caused by heading the ball or by attempting to head the ball and colliding with a player, object, or the ground.2 11% of children who suffer a concussion still have symptoms three months later.3 Persistent post-concussion symptoms can be devastating. According to the Ontario Neurotrauma Foundation,
