Download or read book The Science of Soccer written by John Taylor and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2014-05-15 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. It is also an endless scientific panorama. Every movement by the players and each interaction with the ball involves physics, fluid mechanics, biology, and physiology, to name just a few of the scientific disciplines. In a book that targets middle and high school players, Taylor begins with a history of soccer and its physical and mathematical aspects. He then addresses important questions such as how and why a ball bounces, how the ball spins, and what these dynamics mean for the game. He introduces readers to the science of kicking, heading, and trapping and looks at the sources of the energy required to run, jump, and kick for an entire game. Taylor then puts it all together by following a sequence of plays and describing the science behind tactical maneuvers. Sidebars and appendices allow those with a more mathematical bent to follow the physics and perform experiments to see the effects of phenomena like drag, bounce, and spin. In addition, key terminology is highlighted, explained in the text, and summarized in the glossary.

Download or read book Following the Ball Classic Reprint written by Albertus T. Dudley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Following the Ball For the instruction in kicking, in Chapter XXII, the writer owes much to Mr. Percy D. Haughton, of the Harvard coaching staff, an acknowledged master of the theory and practice of punting. Mr. Haughton has kindly read the proof and made very wel come suggestions. While football has a prominent place in the story, the writer's object is something far beyond a mere glorification of sport. In the development of the schoolboy's char acter and ability, a school brings many forces to bear, some through books and teachers, others through the life and spirit and interests of the students themselves. It is among these latter influences which are often powerful for good or ill that athletics play an important part.

Download or read book Kick the Balls written by Alan Black and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-06-12 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A "hilarious and utterly irreverent tale" (Irvine Welsh) of a year in the life of an abrasive pee-wee soccer coach Growing up in Scotland, Alan Black learned that soccer was no mere game; it was a matter of life or death. In this harshly hilarious tale, Black, a Glasglow transplant living in suburban California, coaches the Dragons, a peewee team that proves an embarrassment to his beloved sport. They're pampered. They're soft. They've been told by their overprotective parents that (gasp!) "winning isn't everything." Using drills and bombast, Black attempts to whip the team into shape. Kick the Balls is a sidesplitting memoir of grass stains and free kicks, a no-holds-barred account of one man's bafflement by an alien culture, and a stinging satire of American parenthood. Alan Black's voice-howling from the sidelines-is that rare thing: a fresh, original, winning comic talent.
