Kandidatuppsats Författare: Erik Kristoffersson 790910 Heléne Gustafsson 670309 Handledare: Gill Widell Abstract Bakgrund Svensk herrtennis skördade stora framgångar från tidigt 1970-tal fram till sent 1990-tal. Världsstjärnorna avlöste varandra under hela perioden och Sverige ansågs som en av världens främsta tennisnationer. Framgångsperioden inom svensk herrtennis benämndes till och med det svenska tennisundret. Nu, 2012, ser vi inga spår av dessa framgångar och bäste svensk är raknad som nr 396 i världen. Vi undrar hur det kunde bli så här? Syfte Hur behåller man en framgång i en organisation? Metod Vi har gjort en deskriptiv studie av Svenska Tennisförbundet (SvTF) som fallstudie där vi har studerat litteratur inom strategi, talent management, sport management samt svensk idrottsrörelse i allmänhet. Sedan har vi jämfört teorin med vår empiri som består av tennislitteratur, SvTFs årsredovisningar samt intervjuer med personer som är kunniga inom tennis. Resultat Vi fann att Svenska Tennisförbundet har målsättningar med verksamheten som inte delas av tennisklubbarna fullt ut. Främsta orsaken till detta är att klubbarna saknar ekonomiska incitament för att genomföra målen. Den internationella konkurrensen är större och tuffare, dessutom är dagens spelare nästan tio år äldre när de står på toppen av sin karriär än för 25 år sedan och det ställer andra krav på träning och ekonomisk försörjning. Slutsats Vi har sett ett tennisförbund som har problem med genomförandet av sina målsättningar. Men samtidigt har vi inte kunnat påvisa en svensk tennis i kris eftersom verksamheten på klubbnivå tycks vara väl fungerande med välfyllda tennishallar.

    v 7. EFFECTS ON LABORATORY MAMMALS AND IN VITRO TEST SYSTEMS 7.1 Single exposure 7. I.I Lethality In a study to determine the acute toxicity of four zinc compounds (acetate, nitrate, chloride and sulfate) administered by the oral or intraperitoneal route to male Swiss mice and male Sprague Dawley rats (Table 20), the majority of deaths occurred during the first 48 h. The clinical and physical signs of toxicity included miosis, conjunctivitis, decreased food and water consump- tion, haemorrhage and haematosis in the tail. These effects were reported to diminish with time, indicating rapid elimination of zinc from the body. The acute toxicity of zinc varied with the zinc salt . used, and ranged from 237 to, 623 mg/kg in rats and from 86 to 605 mgkg in mice after oral administration; the acute toxicity following an intraperitoneal dose ranged from 28 to 73 mg/kg in rats and from 32 to 115 mg/kg in mice (Doming0 et al., 1988). LCso values following inhalation exposure to zinc chloride were 11 800 mg/min per m3 in mice (Schenker et al., 1981) and 2000 mg/m3 in rats (Karlsson et al., 1991). 7.1.2 Acute studies: summary of key findings Zinc chloride can produce significant lung damage in rats when instilled directly into the lung; zinc oxide, by contrast, does not produce lung damage even when administered at relatively high concentrations. This is possibly due to the respective solubilities of the two compounds: zinc chloride is readily soluble in water whereas zinc oxide is not. Zinc chloride induces intra-alveolar oedema which closely resembles the effects of inhaled zinc oxide/hexachloroethane smoke in experimental animals.

    Det folkliga genombrottet för tennis i TV-sofforna Om Janne Lundqvist, Uffe Schmidt och de första TV- sända Davis Cup-matcherna från Båstad i början av 1960-talet Johnny Wijk Historiska institutionen, Stockholms universitet Publicerad på Internet, www.idrottsforum.org/articles/wijk/wijk100217.html (ISSN 1652–7224), 2010–02–17 Copyright © Johnny Wijk 2010.

Stort intresse har på senare år fästs vid sportifieringsprocessen, alltså den process varmed företeelser – vanligtvis folkliga lekar eller lekfulla tävlingar – övergår till att bli sporter. I all- männa ordalag kan man säga att det handlar om en disciplineringsprocess; leken, sponta- niteten, friheten till och med, ska kontrolleras till förmån för standardiserade regler byggda på rationell grund, med övervakningssystem, rättskipning, ja till och med straffutmätning. En sådan beskrivning är inte ovanlig i idrottskritiska sammanhang, men riktigt så illa är det naturligtvis inte. Den förste att systematiskt beskriva och undersöka sportifieringsprocessen var Allen Guttmann, och han identifierade sju aspekter med vilkas hjälp man kan spåra över- gången från spontan lek till organiserad sport, nämligen – med Hans Bolling ord – sekulari- sering, lika chans för alla, specialisering, gemensamma regler, byråkratisering, kvantifiering och rekord. Det här teori- och metodverktyget används idag ofta vid studium av asiatiska kampsporter och dylikt, men också för att förklara varför gamla folkliga tävlingar, som exem- pelvis varpa, inte sportifierats.

On Saturday against Andrey Rublev, he can start anew with a championship to begin 2018. The Frenchman arrived as a wild card following a four-month hiatus due to a right knee injury. Monfils has found success in familiar territory, falling to then-No. 1 Roger Federer (2006), then-No. 6 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (2012) and then-No. 1 Rafael Nadal (2014) in his previous Doha finals. Monfils is one of three wild cards to reach the final in Doha’s 26-year tournament history, joining Younes El Aynaoui in 1996 and Nicolas Escude in 2004. Escude, also from France, is the only wild card to win the Doha title. Monfils’ first final in Doha came as a 19-year-old, but his 20-year-old opponent on Saturday is bidding to become the youngest Qatar ExxonMobil Open champion ever. Rublev is through to the final despite hitting a total of 33 double faults in his four victories this week. INFOSYS ATP SCORES & STATS Qatar ExxonMobil Open [WC] Gael
