  • Kinematic Analysis on Serve Technique of World's Elite
    33rd International Conference on Biomechanics in Sports, Poitiers, France, June 29 - July 3, 2015 Floren Colloud, Mathieu Domalain & Tony Monnet (Editors) Coaching and Sports Activities KINEMATIC ANALYSIS ON SERVE TECHNIQUE OF WORLD’S ELITE FEMALE TENNIS PLAYER Jun Guo, Jihe Zhou Graduate Student Faculty, Chengdu Sport University, Sichuan, Chengdu, China The purpose of this study was to obtain the kinematic parameters on serve technique of WTA (Women's Tennis Association) top two Serena Williams and Simona Halep. The study selected WTA top two players’ first serve in 2014 China Open, which was held in Beijing, China. This paper makes analysis on serve technique between two elite players through the method of three-dimensional video analysis. The kinematic technical feature has been obtained through this study, resulting in not only providing referential statistics for the technical training of the players, but also enriching the technical theory of tennis. KEY WORDS: toss, backswing, hitting, whiplash movement. INTRODUCTION: In recent years the speed of the serve has increased considerably. For instance, the fastest serve speed of professional female players is 211km/h. Serve is the main mean of scoring to win the match, especially the first serve, which is an offensive weapon. The quality of the first serve indeed directly influences the set of serves for player and high quality first serves make difficult for opponent from the start. Therefore, it is the start of the game and the start of attack. A large number of documents shows that the statistics collected about kinematic research of first serve is mostly focused on training professional and amateur athletes.

  • THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN NECK STRENGTH and HEAD ACCELERATIONS in a RUGBY TACKLE Alasdair R Dempsey , Timothy J Fairchild , and B
    THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN NECK STRENGTH AND HEAD ACCELERATIONS IN A RUGBY TACKLE Alasdair R Dempsey1, Timothy J Fairchild1, and Brendyn B Appleby2 School of Psychology and Exercise Science, Murdoch University, Perth, Australia1 Australian Institute of Sport, Perth, Australia2 The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between neck strength and head accelerations during a rugby tackle. Ten elite rugby players had their neck strength assessed and head accelerations tracked using a three dimensional motion analysis system during a rugby tackle. Higher levels of strength were related to lower head accelerations. Significant relationships were found between coronal plane accelerations and flexion and extension strength. The findings support those in the literature suggesting that increasing neck strength is a potential target to reduce sport concussions. KEY WORDS: concussion, injury, neck strength. INTRODUCTION: Over recent years there has been an increase in interest in understanding and moving towards prevention of concussion in sports. This interest arises from both the management of the initial incident and return to play, but also with regards to the long term effects of concussion, in particular repeated concussions (McCrory et al., 2013; Pearce et al., 2014). A recent systematic review has estimated the incidence of concussion in rugby union to be 4.73 per 1000 player match hours (Gardner, Iverson, Williams, Baker, & Stanwell, 2014). Much of the work undertaken to identify the aetiology of the injury has focused on the assessment of head accelerations in game during American Football using in helmet accelerometers (Broglio, Martini, Kasper, Eckner, & Kutcher, 2013; Young, Rowson, & Duma, 2014). We are only aware of one study that has investigated head accelerations in a controlled contact situation (Hasegawa et al., 2014).
