  • 2007 Lake Monitoring Report Mecklenburg County Water Quality Program SWIM Phase I Part 2-CO
    2007 Lake Monitoring Report Mecklenburg County Water Quality Program SWIM Phase I Part 2-CO Prepared by: David Buetow Final Report for FY2007-2008 PURPOSE AND BACKGROUND The Mecklenburg County Water Quality Program (MCWQP) has an ongoing program to monitor the water quality in the three Catawba Lakes bordering the county: Lake Norman, Mountain Island Lake and Lake Wylie. Samples are also routinely collected at the two water bodies in the northern end of Mecklenburg County cut off from Lake Norman proper by I-77: Lake Cornelius and Lake Davidson. Data collected from all lake sites are used to screen for environmental problems using MCWQP Action and Watch levels for various pollutants and also to rate the overall water quality at sampling locations in the lakes using a water quality index. Additional objectives are to describe seasonal trends and address spatial variability in the data. This report presents the lake monitoring data for the calendar year 2007 ACTIVITIES AND METHODS Regular monthly lake sampling was conducted at seven locations in Lake Norman and one location each on Lake Cornelius and Lake Davidson (Appendix A), ten locations in Mountain Island Lake (Appendix B) and eight sampling locations in Lake Wylie (Appendix C). In May 2007, the sampling program was changed in Lake Wylie to add several new cove monitoring sites. This resulted in an increase in regular sampling sites in Lake Wylie from eight to thirteen (Appendix D). Lakes Norman, Wylie and Mountain Island were sampled monthly from May through September and every other month during the rest of the year, i.e.

  • Throwing Distance and Competitive Performance of Boccia Players
    J. Phys. Ther. Sci. 32: 574–577, 2020 The Journal of Physical Therapy Science Original Article Throwing distance and competitive performance of Boccia players Masataka Kataoka, PhD1)*, Kuniharu Okuda, PhD1), Akira Iwata, PhD1), Shuji Imura, MS1), Kosuke Yahagi, MS1), Yohei Matsuo2) 1) Graduate School of Comprehensive Rehabilitation, Osaka Prefecture University: 3-7-30 Habikino, Habikino-city, Osaka 583-8555, Japan 2) Fukushima Rehabilitation Center for Children, Japan Abstract. [Purpose] This study aimed to clarify the relationship between throwing distance and competitive performance in Boccia players in order to establish a training program based on this evidence. [Participants and Methods] In total, 40 athletes, who competed in the Japan Boccia Championships and are certified players of the Japan Boccia Association, participated in the study. Participants threw the Boccia ball as far as possible, and throw- ing distances were compared between certified players (Group I, n=8), those who participated in the final round (Group II, n=9), and those who lost in the preliminary round (Group III, n=23). [Results] The maximum throwing distances were 16.38 ± 5.17 m (Group I), 10.67 ± 2.66 m (Group II), and 8.34 ± 2.73 m (Group III). Group I threw the ball significantly farther than Groups II and III. [Conclusion] Boccia is a target sport and throwing farther distances requires more effort. In addition, being able to throw at a longer distance means that Boccia players can throw a stronger ball and use this for various tactics. The results of this study suggest that long-distance throwing training would be effective in improving the competitive performance of Boccia players.

  • Badminton Introduction
    BADMINTON INTRODUCTION Badminton is a racquet sport played on a court either by two players or two opposing pairs. Instead of a ball, a shuttlecock is hit back and forwards. Speed, fast reactions, and stamina are all important if you want to be a successful player. The Net The net is made from cord with a mesh size of 15 to 20mm. It is tightly stretched to ensure that the top edge is horizontal and at the same height as the top of the posts supporting it. Scoring The aim of Badminton is to hit a shuttle, using a racquet, over the net onto the court area before the opposition player or pair can hit it back or to force the opposition into an error. The first player or pair to reach 15 points (11 points for women's singles) wins the game. After winning a point the same player serves again, and continues to serve as long as that player or team keeps winning points. If the non-serving team wins the rally, no point is scored but there is a change of server instead. HISTORY OF BADMINTON Badminton evolved from the ancient game of Battledore and Shuttlecock. It was named ‘Badminton’ after the home of the Duke of Beaufort in Gloucestershire where, in the mid nineteenth century, it was a pastime of the Duke's guests when driven indoors by bad weather. There are currently 146 nations in the World affiliated to the A Badminton racquet ruling body, the International Badminton Federation (IBF) from the late 1950s which was formed in 1934 with a total of nine member nations.
