Speedball Study Guide SPEEDBALL Speedball combines the elements of several team sports, specifically soccer and basketball. The object of the game is to advance the ball toward the goal and score points. At certain times only kicking the ball on the ground may advance the ball, and at other times throwing the ball may advance it. An important part of the game is to put a ground ball into the air and an aerial ball onto the ground. The playing positions are set up the same as those in soccer with 11 players. The goalie in speedball does not have special privileges. EQUIPMENT AND FACILITIES: One field 100 yards x 60 yards, two goals, one soccer ball THE GAME: 1) The game consists of 4 quarters of 10 minutes. The game is started with a kick-off by the center on the 50-yard line. The opposite team must be behind the center line. 2) If the ball remains on the ground from this kick it is considered a ground ball and played only by dribbling the ball. 3) If a ball is kicked into the air and caught, it is then called an aerial ball. While holding the ball you may not take more than two steps following a run, or more than one step at any other time while holding the ball. An aerial ball may be held for three seconds. 4) When the ball goes out of bounds over the sidelines a soccer throw-in puts it back in play. A punt, place kick, throw-in, or a drop kick can put the ball in play when the ball goes out of bounds over the end lines. CONVERSIONS: a ground ball to an aerial ball. It can be done in three ways: CHIPPING – Kicking the ball up to another teammate. ONE FOOT KICK UP – Putting one foot on top of the ball and pulling the ball toward yourself quickly, using your toe to scoop up the ball into your hands. TWO FOOT KICK UP (FROG KICK) – Trapping the ball between both ankles. Bend your knees outward, jump up and catch the ball with your hands. DEFINITIONS: 1) Dribble – Advancing the ball by use of the feet. 2) Air Dribble – Method of advancing the ball by throwing ball into the air and catching it before it touches the ground. You cannot dribble the ball more than once in succession. 3) Place Kick – Kicking the ball when it is stationary on the ground. 4) Trapping – Stopping a moving ball by use of 1 foot, 1 thigh, or chest. 5) Pass – Throwing the ball to another player, or kicking the ball to another player. 6) Punt – Tossing the ball into the air and kicking it before the ball touches the ground. 7) Drop Kick – Tossing the ball into the air and kicking it after one bounces on the ground. SCORING: Field goal – (1 point) The ball is kicked in the goal. Touchdown – (2 points) A pass is thrown and is caught by a teammate standing in the end zone. Drop Kick – (3 points) A drop kick started sent over the top of the goal. FOULS AND VIOLATIONS: Blocking, charging, holding, holding ball over 3 seconds, kicking, obstruction, pushing, traveling, and tripping are all FOULS. The opposite team is awarded a free kick on the spot. .

  • American Football
    COMPILED BY : - GAUTAM SINGH STUDY MATERIAL – SPORTS 0 7830294949 American Football American Football popularly known as the Rugby Football or Gridiron originated in United States resembling a union of Rugby and soccer; played in between two teams with each team of eleven players. American football gained fame as the people wanted to detach themselves from the English influence. The father of this sport Walter Camp altered the shape and size of the ball to an oval-shaped ball called ovoid ball and drawn up some unique set of rules. Objective American Football is played on a four sided ground with goalposts at each end. The two opposing teams are named as the Offense and the Defense, The offensive team with control of the ovoid ball, tries to go ahead down the field by running and passing the ball, while the defensive team without control of the ball, targets to stop the offensive team’s advance and tries to take control of the ball for themselves. The main objective of the sport is scoring maximum number of goals by moving forward with the ball into the opposite team's end line for a touchdown or kicking the ball through the challenger's goalposts which is counted as a goal and the team gets points for the goal. The team with the most points at the end of a game wins.

  • Technique of Goalie Punt (For Women) (R Foot Kick) Marion Alexander, Phd
    1 Technique of Goalie Punt (for Women) (R foot kick) Marion Alexander, PhD. Adam Toffan, MSc Brad Gerbrandt, MSc University of Manitoba Introduction The goalie is the only player in soccer who can legally handle the ball with the hands. The punt or drop kick is used by the goalie to clear the ball as far downfield as possible, since the ball is dropped out of the hands and is airborne at contact. The goalie may punt the ball when she makes a stop and has possession of the ball - she cannot be touched when she has the ball in the goal area. An effective goalie can punt the ball well down the field into their offensive zone, and this skill is an effective start for the attack. The job of the goalie is to clear the ball from the danger area near the goal as effectively as possible and as far downfield as possible (Crisfield, 1998). The punt is the kick with the greatest distance, since it is struck before ground contact while above the ground and has a higher trajectory and angle of attack than a kick from on the ground. The drop kick is a ball that is dropped by the goalie and is then kicked just after striking the ground- called a half-volley shot in other sports. The drop kick has a lower trajectory so will not travel as far but it will reach the receiver sooner as it is more like a line drive with a lower angle of release. Most goalies have a ritual series of movements they perform just prior to performing the punt.

  • THE HIGH SCHOOL KICKING GAME Part I FRIDAY's NIGHTMARE
    THE HIGH SCHOOL KICKING GAME Part I FRIDAY’S NIGHTMARE Several years ago I worked up a training program covering the high school kicking game. I divided the kicking game into 4 phases; kickoffs, punts, field goal attempts and try attempts by kick. In the interest of brevity I will address these in different articles. The format I am using is to give the plays in a list followed by a key to discuss what is to be done for each play and why. Some are very simple plays while others may be very complicated and require an adequate knowledge of the rules. KICKOFF: 1. K encroaches. 2. K encroaches. After penalty enforcement K kicks the ball out of bounds. 3. R encroaches. 4. The kicker approaches the ball but misses it. 5. K’s kick goes beyond the 50-yard line in the air, and is blown back to K’s 47-yard line. 6. K commits first touching of a grounded kick. 7. K first touches a kick in the air (the ball has not touched the ground). 8. R muffs the kick on K’s 49. 9. R muffs the kick on R’s 49. 10. R doesn’t cover a grounded kick on his 45-yard line. 11. R1, standing inbounds, muffs the kick which then lands out-of-bounds. 12. R1, standing out-of-bounds, touches or catches a kick which is also outside the sideline. Any difference if the kick is inside the sideline when touched? 13. In the neutral zone, K3 muffs the kick causing it to touch R1 who is in the neutral zone and inbounds, K then muffs the ball which goes out-of-bounds.

  • The Lost Skill of Drop Kicking by Rick Gonsalves
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 22, No. 5 (2000) The Lost Skill of Drop Kicking By Rick Gonsalves When the NFL was in its infancy, drop kicking was the way players scored extra points and field goals. This skill too, was carried over from rugby. From 1920 to 1933, the football was shaped like a watermelon. Because of its blunt tip, the ball would provide the kicker with a dependable bounce, once it hit the ground. But in 1934, the ball became slimmer and more pointed for the passing game. Since it would not now give a dependable bounce when dropped, this form of kicking disappeared. Several players, however, became very proficient drop kickers. Jim Thorpe could hit on kicks up to 50 yards. Wilbur “Fats” Henry once boomed two 45-yard field goals for Canton against Toledo on December 10, 1922, which set an NFL record for the longest from a drop kick. At one point in his 8-year career, he converted 49 straight extra points, the most ever in the NFL by drop kicking. John “Paddy” Driscoll of the Chicago Cardinals kicked a 52-yard field goal against Milwaukee on September 28, 1924. For years, it was believed he’d topped Henry’s record for the longest field goal by a drop kick. However, newspaper accounts of the game clearly indicate he placekicked his boomer. John may have set an NFL record by drop kicking four field goals from 18, 23, 35 and 50 yards in one game against Columbus on October 11, 1925. Whether all four, including the 50-yarder were all drop kicks is in dispute.
