Download or read book Dictionary of Sports and Games Terminology written by Adrian Room and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2017-02-10 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The specialized jargon of some sports can be quite esoteric. Non-Americans, for example, are likely puzzled by baseball terms such as bunt, cut-off man, and safety squeeze, while the non-British may pause over cricket's Chinaman, doosra, golden duck, off-break, popping crease, and yorker. This new dictionary gives the definitions of more than 8,000 terms used in sports and games from around the world, including mainstream sports like basketball and billiards alongside the more obscure netball and snooker. Entries cover sports equipment, strategies, venues, qualifying categories, awards, and administrative bodies, while a comprehensive system of cross-references offers assistance and clarification when needed. An appendix lists standard abbreviations of sports ruling bodies and administrative organizations.

Download or read book Association Football written by Graham Curry and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a synthesis of the work on early football undertaken by the authors over the past two decades. It explores aspects of a figurational approach to sociology to examine the early development of football rules in the middle part of the nineteenth century. The book tests Dunning’s status rivalry hypothesis to contest Harvey’s view of football’s development which stresses an influential sub-culture outside the public schools. Status Rivalry re-states the primacy of these latter institutions in the growth of football and without it the sport’s story would remain skewed and unbalanced for future generations.
Download or read book Glossaries of Sports written by Source Wikipedia and published by Booksllc.Net. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 213. Chapters: Glossary of cue sports terms, Glossary of association football terms, Glossary of cricket terms, Glossary of American football, Glossary of equestrian terms, Glossary of poker terms, Glossary of rugby league terms, Glossary of professional wrestling terms, Glossary of motorsport terms, Glossary of English-language idioms derived from baseball, Glossary of golf, Glossary of bicycling, Glossary of tennis terms, Glossary of fencing, Glossary of rugby union terms, Glossary of Australian rules football. Excerpt: The following is a glossary of traditional English-language terms used in the three overarching cue sports disciplines: carom (or carambole) billiards referring to the various games played on a billiard table without; pool (pocket billiards), which denotes a host of games played on a table with six pockets; and snooker, played on a large pocket table, and which has a sport culture unto itself distinct from pool. There are also hybrid pocket/carom games such as English billiards. The term "" is sometimes used to refer to all of the cue sports, to a specific class of them, or to specific ones such as English billiards; this article uses the term in its most generic sense unless otherwise noted. The labels "British" and "UK" as applied to entries in this glossary refer to terms originating in the UK and also used in countries that were fairly recently part of the British Empire and/or are part of the Commonwealth of Nations, as opposed to US (and, often, Canadian) terminology. The terms "American" or "US" as applied here refer generally to North American usage. However, due to the predominance of US-originating terminology in most internationally competitive pool (as opposed to snooker), US terms are also common in the pool context in other countries in which English is at least a minority language, and US (and...
Download or read book Football Lexicon written by John Leigh and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2006-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sort of Robbie Fowler's Modern English Usage, 'The Football Lexicon' provides an A to Row Z of the language of football, with over 800 examples of the set phrases we use to talk and write about the beautiful game. Altercation; A rather euphemistic way of describing a bust-up, a dust-up, a situation where players square up, as in - 'Bit of an altercation off the ball there.' See also handbags. Z - Row Z is a long way from the pitch and so, by inference, the hypothetical destination of any no-nonsense clearance. Defenders who put safety first by playing within their limitations can be praised, but a reference to the back of the stand may also depict a badly over-hit pass - 'He tried to find Fredgaard on the other wing, but that's gone straight into Row Z.' Old-school managers may even condone their players putting the opposition into the stands along with the ball - 'County boss Billy Dearden was left fuming - 'O’Driscoll should have finished in Row Z but we were too nice'.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Sparky and very funny... At last, the definitive guide to football phraseology across the world...' Paul Hayward, five-time Sports Journalists' Association Writer of the Year A new edition of a fascinating round-the-world exploration of the weird and wonderful language of football, with new entertaining entries and a foreword by renowned Dutch midfielder (and polyglot) Clarence Seedorf. To speak football is to speak a language of a thousand tongues... In this new and revised global glossary of football words and phrases, discover the rich, quirky and joyously creative language used by fans, commentators and players across the world. From placing a shot 'where the owl sleeps' in Brazil, to what it means to use your 'chocolate leg' in the Netherlands, via 'Anglican' – a phrase adopted by Czechs to describe a disputed goal – and the now ubiquitous 'it's coming home', this comprehensively researched book entertains and informs in equal measure. Discover why a 'café crème' is more than a classic bistro order, what it means when an Indian coach uses his 'brain weapon' and why Dundee United supporters should keep their heads down in Nigeria. With over 750 terms from 89 countries (including 29 ways to describe a nutmeg), this is the definitive guide to the global language of football.

Download or read book It s Football Not Soccer and Vice Versa written by Silke-Maria Weineck and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-27 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every four years, when the World Cup rolls around, the internet yells at the US that "it's football, not soccer." This short and light-hearted book lays out the contours of the debate, delves into the history of the word "football" and the emergence of the word "soccer," explores some 20th century data on the distribution of the two words and the surprisingly recent origin of the great schism, tells you about all the words the world actually uses to describe the game, gives you a glimpse of the convoluted fate of the word soccer in Australia, and tries to make sense of it all. Stefan Szymanski, co-author of "Soccernomics," is a sports economist who teaches sport management at the University of Michigan. Silke-Maria Weineck, author of "The Tragedy of Fatherhood," teaches German Studies and Comparative Literature at the University of Michigan.
