Federal Dr. Urbana, IL 61801 www.sagamorepublishing.com Dedication “To produce a mighty book, you must choose a mighty theme. No great and enduring volume can ever be written on the flea, though many there be that have tried it.” Herman Melville, my ancestor and author of the classic novel Moby Dick, has passed this advice forward to myself and the world in this quote. The dynamics of the sports environment have proven to be a very worthy topic and have provided a rich amount of material that investigates the actions, thoughts, and behaviors of people as they navigate their way through a social environment that we have come to know as sport. By avoiding the study of fleas, I have instead had to navigate the deep blue waters of research into finding the causes, roots, and solutions to a social problem that has become figuratively as large as the mythical Moby Dick that my great-great uncle was in search of. -

13-Cheerleading
CHEERLEADING The presence of a strong cheerleading team has been an feature of Maine athletics for more than half a century. Although the activity traditionally attracts more women than men, the first individual to receive a varsity “M” for cheerleading was a male, Don Green in the 1932-33 academic year. During the 1930s and well into the 1940s, most cheerleaders were males. Their cheering efforts, for the most part, were limited to football games. The first woman to receive a cheerleading “M” was Mary Belle Tufts in the 1947-48 college year. The activity gained in numbers during the 1950s with squads averaging between nine and 15 per year. The Athletic Board, responsible for determining “M” recipients each year, presented the varsity “M”, or an equivalent award, to cheerleaders until the end of the 1959-60 college year. At that time, for reasons which cannot be documented, the Board reversed itself and no “M” awards were made during the next 21 years. In 1981, however, Assoc. Director of Athletics Woody Carville, who was responsible for cheerleading activities among his many duties, was able to persuade the Board to re-instate the “M” award for members of cheering teams. The number of cheerleaders who gained recognition for their efforts grew in numbers significantly during the 1980s, primarily due to the creation of a squad for football games and and a second unit for basketball games. In the 1989-90 college year, some 31 cheering awards were given. Then the rules changed again. The Board decided to award the “M” only to those cheerleaders who were members of both teams. -

History of Cheerleading Originates from the United States in the Late 1880'S with Your Average Crowd Yelling and Chanting to Encourage Their Team
The history of cheerleading originates from the United States in the late 1880's with your average crowd yelling and chanting to encourage their team. No one is quite sure how they documented that it was the first cheer ever but credit is given to Princeton University in 1884 for coming up with a Princeton cheer and marking there place in cheerleading history. Then a few years later, the Princeton grad Tom Peebles brought cheering to the University of Minnesota. But it wasn't until 1898 that fellow University of Minnesota student Johnny Campbell directed what was the very first cheer ever in November of 1898. The story is that Minnesota was having such a terrible football season that people felt the need to come up with positive chants and cheering was born. Minnesota went on to organize a male cheer squad in 1903 and organized the first cheerleading fraternity in the history of cheerleading, Gamma Sigma. Ironically enough cheerleading started out as an all male sport, it was felt there deep loud voices were more projecting than a woman's voice. It wasn't until the 1920's that women became much more involved in cheerleading and began to incorporate gymnastics, pyramids and throws. Today, youth cheerleading is predominantly made up of female cheerleaders however college cheerleading is still about fifty percent male. Well, the students cheered all they could for Minnesota yet they still got beat. It was a student's scientific thesis that positive fan support would actually help send positive energy toward there team and assist them in winning. -
Sports and Disability
Focused Review Sports and Disability Pamela E. Wilson, MD, Gerald H. Clayton, PhD Abstract: Participation in recreational and competitive sports at an early age has long been touted as a positive influence on growth and development, and for fostering lifelong healthy lifestyles. The benefits of an active lifestyle include not only fitness, but the promotion of a sense of inclusion and improved self-esteem. These benefits are well documented in all populations, and their importance has been summarized in the recent Healthy People 2010 guidelines. The American Academy of Pediatrics has recently produced a summary state- ment on the benefits of activity for disabled children. They note that children with disabilities tend to have an overall lower level of fitness and an increased level of obesity. For this population, developing a lifelong desire to be active can be a simple means for limiting illness and much of the morbidity associated with sedentary lifestyles often associated with disability. For disabled youth, participation in disabled sports programs available nationally and internationally can be an effective means to promote such precepts. The goal of this focused review is to improve the learner’s knowledge of the positive impact that active lifestyles can have on overall health in the disabled youth population and, as a result, modify their practice by incorporating recreational and competitive sport activities as part of improving overall patient care. PM R 2010;2:S46-S54 INTRODUCTION In examining the impact that sports and recreation can have on habilitation and rehabilita- tion, consider a very talented young athlete who woke up one morning unable to move her lower extremities. -

Day 10: "Blade Runner" Completes Gold Treble, China Hits 200-Medal Mark 09:05, September 17, 2008
Day 10: "Blade Runner" completes gold treble, China hits 200-medal mark 09:05, September 17, 2008 South African sensation Oscar Pistorius completed a hat trick of gold medals in sprint events at the Beijing Paralympics on Tuesday as host China crossed the 200-medal mark. South Africa's Oscar Pistorius competes during the final of the men's 400m T44 event at the National Stadium,also known as the Bird's Nest,during the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games in Beijing, Sept. 16, 2008. Pistorius claimed the title of the event with a result of 47.49 seconds and set a new world record. (Xinhua Photo) Pistorius, dubbed the "Blade Runner" for the J-shaped carbon-fiber blades he uses, won the 400m final in a world record time of 47.49 seconds to add to his titles in 100m and 200m. He bettered his own world recod by more than two seconds. "I'm delighted to break the world record. I have a lot of pressure on this competition," said the 21-year-old. Pistorius was born without his fibula, the smaller of the two bones in the lower legs, and when he was 11 months old both limbs were amputated below the knee. Canada's Chantal Petitclerc celebrates after crossing the finish line during the final of the women's 1500m T54 event at the National Stadium,also known as the Bird's Nest,during the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games in Beijing, Sept. 16, 2008. Petitclerc claimed the title of the event with a result of 3:39.88.
