Abstract:
Background Researchers have investigated the performance of face mask removal tools for spine injury management in football but not the effects of football equipment design. Hypotheses Various styles or designs of football helmet equipment (helmets, face masks, loop straps) affect face mask removal efficiency. A cordless screwdriver performs more efficiently than do cutting tools. Study Design Controlled laboratory study. Methods Nineteen certified athletic trainers were randomly assigned to group 1 (cordless screwdriver and the FM Extractor) or group 2 (cordless screwdriver and the Trainer's Angel). Subjects randomly performed face mask removal for 6 conditions composed of helmet (3), face mask (3), and loop strap (5) combinations. Time, head movement, perceived difficulty, and success rates were measured. Results Multiple significant differences were found in time, movement, and perceived difficulty between the 6 helmet equipment conditions. The Shockblocker loop strap was consistently superior in all variables regardless of the tool used or the helmet it was attached to. The cordless screwdriver created less movement (mean range from any one plane, 2.8°-13.3°), was faster (mean range, 42.1-68.8 seconds), and was less difficult (mean rating of perceived exertion range, 1.4-2.9) compared to cutting tools (ranges, 4.4°-18.4° in any one plane, 71-174 seconds, rating of perceived exertion, 2.8-7.7). Trial failure was more common with cutting tools than with the screwdriver. Conclusion Differences in football helmet equipment affect face mask removal. The cordless screwdriver is more efficient than the FM Extractor and Trainer's Angel. Clinical Relevance Professionals responsible for the care of football athletes must be knowledgeable in the types of equipment used and the best option available for effective airway access.

Abstract:
Background: Foot and ankle injuries are common in sports, particularly in cleated athletes. Traditionally, the athletic shoe has not been regarded as a piece of protective equipment but rather as a part of the uniform, with a primary focus on performance and subjective feedback measures of comfort. Changes in turf and shoe design have poorly understood implications on the health and safety of players. Evidence Acquisition: A literature search of the MEDLINE and PubMed databases was conducted. Keywords included athletic shoewear, cleated shoe, football shoes, and shoewear, and search parameters were between the years 2000 and 2016. Study Design: Clinical review. Level of Evidence: Level 5. Results: The athletic shoe is an important piece of protective sports equipment. There are several important structural considerations of shoe design, including biomechanical compliance, cleat and turf interaction, and shoe sizing/fit, that affect the way an athlete engages with the playing surface and carry important potential implications regarding player safety if not understood and addressed. Conclusion: Athletic footwear should be considered an integral piece of protective equipment rather than simply an extension of the uniform apparel. More research is needed to define optimal shoe sizing, the effect that design has on mechanical load, and how cleat properties, including pattern and structure, interact with the variety of playing surfaces.

Abstract:
Brain injuries are prevalent in the sport of American football. Helmets have been used which effectively have reduced the incidence of traumatic brain injury, but have had a limited effect on concussion rates. In an effort to improve the protective capacity of American football helmets, a standard has been proposed by National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment that may better represent helmet-to-helmet impacts common to football concussions. The purpose of this research was to examine the National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment standard and a new impact method similar to the proposed National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment standard to examine the information these methods provide on helmet performance. Five National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment–certified American football helmets were impacted according to the National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment standard test and a new method based on the proposed standard test. The results demonstrated that the National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment test produced larger linear accelerations than the new method, which were a reflection of the stiffer compliance of the standard meant to replicate traumatic brain injury mechanisms of injury. When the helmets were impacted using a new helmet-to-helmet method, the results reflected significant risk of concussive injury but showed differences in rotational acceleration responses between different helmet models. This suggests that the new system is sensitive enough to detect the effect of different design changes on rotational acceleration, a metric more closely associated with risk of concussion. As only one helmet produced magnitudes of response lower than the National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment pass/fail using the new system, and all helmets passed the National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment standard, these results suggest that further development of helmet technologies must be undertaken to reduce this risk in the future. Finally, these results show that it would be prudent to use both standards together to address risk of injury from traumatic brain injury and concussion.

Abstract:
Abstract Context: Managing an airway in an unconscious athlete is a lifesaving skill that may be made more difficult by the recent changes in protective equipment. Different airway maneuvers and techniques may be required to help ventilate an unconscious athlete who is wearing full protective equipment. Objective: To assess the effectiveness of different airway maneuvers with football, ice hockey, and soccer players wearing full protective equipment. Design: Crossover study. Setting: University sports medicine clinic. Patients or Other Participants: A total of 146 university varsity athletes, consisting of 62 football, 45 ice hockey, and 39 soccer players. Intervention(s): Athletes were assessed for different airway and physical characteristics. Three investigators then evaluated the effectiveness of different bag-valve-mask (BVM) ventilation techniques in supine athletes who were wearing protective equipment while inline cervical spine immobilization was maintained. Main Outcome Measure(s): The effectiveness of 1-person BVM ventilation (1-BVM), 2-person BVM ventilation (2-BVM), and inline immobilization and ventilation (IIV) was judged by each investigator for each athlete using a 4-point rating scale. Results: All forms of ventilation were least difficult in soccer players and most difficult in football players. When compared with 1-BVM, both 2-BVM and IIV were deemed more effective by all investigators for all athletes. Interference from the helmet and stabilizer were common reasons for difficult ventilation in football and ice hockey players. Conclusions: Sports medicine professionals should practice and be comfortable with different ventilation techniques for athletes wearing full equipment. The use of a new ventilation technique, termed inline immobilization and ventilation, may be beneficial, especially when the number of responders is limited.

Abstract:
The current trend in education in Ukraine is the transition from the education of children with special educational needs in the system of special education to inclusive education in secondary schools. Under such conditions, there is a need to revise, re- evaluate and rethink the methods and techniques of teaching children with hearing impairments in accordance with modern requirements. Mastering the techniques of ball possession can be a powerful tool for correcting and improving coordination of movements in children with hearing loss. Therefore, the methods of teaching children with hearing impairments physical exercises that can be used by the teacher in inclusive classes in physical education classes need to be revised and adapted. The aim of our study is to find an effective combination of different visual aids in teaching children with hearing impairments technical actions in football. It was found that for children with persistent hearing impairments, the use of demonstration and demonstration is insufficient in learning motor actions, and the possibility of using verbal teaching methods is limited. Instead, not only the physical education of the teacher, but also the written speech acquires special significance for this contingent of children. The training method developed by us involves the use of specially designed posters describing the technique of performing elements of football and illustrations of each phase of motor action has shown high efficiency. The described method of teaching technical actions in football for children with hearing impairments and the criteria for evaluating some control exercises can be applied by coaches and physical education teachers working in inclusive classes. The purpose of our study is to find an effective combination of different methods of visual education of children with hearing impairments to perform technical actions in football. It was found that for children with hearing impairments, the use of a teacher's demonstration of motor action and demonstration on the screen is not enough when learning motor actions, and the possibility of using oral teaching methods is limited. At the same time, not only the teacher showing the movement, but also the written language is of particular importance for this contingent of children. The training method we developed involves the use of posters describing the technique of performing football elements and illustrations of each stage of motor actions, and has shown high efficiency. The described method of teaching technical actions in football for children with hearing impairments and the criteria for evaluating some control exercises can be used by trainers and physical education teachers working in inclusive classes.

Abstract:
An increase of 153,375 to 248,418 traumatic brain injuries (TBI) due to incidents in sports and recreation activities has been reported in the past couple of years in the US alone. These are grounds for concern for athletes partaking in sports with a high incidence of TBI’s such as football and soccer. The latter, traditionally not classified as a contact-sport, has attracted research due to participants using their head as an instrument for heading. Voluntary heading, in combination with lenient laws and regulations concerning TBI expose how soccer players are easily at risk of injury. On the other hand football, an aggressive sport by nature, has brought attention to the possible neurocognitive and neurophysiological ramifications of repetitive subconcussive impacts. One of these is in the form of a progressive neurodegenerative pathology known as chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE). A priori reasons revealed, led to a need to characterize the most important variables involved in ball-player interactions within soccer simulated gameplay. By understanding these, it would be possible to obtain parameters to design and manufacture new composite-material based protective headgear unlike products that are commercially available nowadays. In addition, development of a testing protocol focused on frequency domain variables - transmissibility and mechanical impedance - would allow to evaluate the performance of football helmets. A focus would be set on low impacts categorized as subconcussive impacts. Incoming velocity and inflation pressure were identified as the most influential variables affecting the peak impact force of a soccer ball. An innovative 6-layer carbon fiber headband, with silicone padding, was manufactured that out-performed existing headgear at attenuating peak linear acceleration. Lastly, quantification of the transmissibility and mechanical impedance indicated poor performance of football helmets below 60 Hz.

Abstract:
The present PhD thesis is compilation of various investigations for the development of a physiological profile in women’s soccer. After an extensive literature review, several literature gaps in this area were identified including: physiological demands of a women’s soccer match including simultaneous measurements with portable metabolic equipment and GPS technology; physical performance analysis of women’s soccer competitive matches of different competition levels using GPS technology; and fitness testing and fitness profiles of female soccer players of different competitive levels by means of laboratory and field tests. The investigations that are part of this thesis targeted these gaps and provided for the first time novel and objective findings in these subjects. The popularity of women’s soccer as well as the number of female soccer players worldwide has increased exponentially in the last 30 years. Furthermore, there are now multiple women’s soccer international competitions and professional leagues around the globe and they will continue to increase in the next few years. Therefore, there is currently high demand for scientific research specific to the women’s game in these topics which may aid coaches, physical trainers, and other practitioners to develop more effective fitness assessments and training programs for their female players in order to improve their fitness status and overall match performance according to their competitive level and positional role.:DEDICATION iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS iv BIBLIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION vi ABSTRACT vii LIST OF PUBLICATIONS viii TABLE OF CONTENTS ix LIST OF TABLES xi LIST OF FIGURES xii LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS xiii 1 INTRODUCTION 1 1.1.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Direito apresentada à Faculdade de Direito
The present study, as the main focus, studies the importance, impact and urban insertion of stadiums in contemporary cities. This aspect is based on the chronological evolution of sport equipment in 3 different phases, namely from the amphitheatre in the Roman Empire, the passage from the 18th-20th century and finally in the 90s, with the construction and remodelling of various stadiums.Between us, sport and physical culture are activities that play an extremely important role in the social order (não sei que é “ordanamento social), in that, being closely linked to the guarantee of quality of life for individuals, they are configured in the constitution of the Portuguese Republic as a fundamental right of citizens.In this sense, for the realization of this right, the State, in collaboration with other entities with powers and competences in these fields, is required to perform a set of public tasks related to it. With this dissertation, we will try to make the role of football stadiums known to the reader, as sports equipment for collective use, the position assumed in a city in constant redesign and as an element of urban regeneration, as well as making all stages since the implementation of this type of infrastructure known. To this extent, we will being the mythical case of the Cidade Coimbra Stadium to the spotlight, remodeled for Euro 2004, which, therefore, reached our administrative levels.Finally, we will seek to briefly elucidate the way in which, in addition to their design, implementation and construction, the same, and the respective modality, are managed by those who will be part of them. As a final conclusion, starting from Euro 2004 as a peak season in Portuguese football, we will analyse five out of the ten stadiums built for this purpose, for a brief survey of issues, from the urban point of view and the aesthetics of the cities, raised during the construction each one of them.
O presente trabalho tem como foco principal estudar a importância, o impacto e a inserção urbana dos estádios nas cidades contemporâneas. Este aspeto sustenta-se na evolução cronológica destes equipamentos desportivos em três diferentes fases, designadamente no papel do anfiteatro no Império Romano, a passagem do séc. XIX para o séc. XX e finalmente na década de 90, com a construção e remodelação de vários estádios.Entre nós, o desporto e a cultura física são atividades que cumprem nos vários ordenamentos sociais um papel de enorme importância na medida em que, encontrando-se intimamente ligados à garantia da qualidade de vida dos indivíduos, se configuram na Constituição da República Portuguesa (artigo 79.º) como um direito fundamental dos cidadãos.Nesse sentido, para a efetivação desse mesmo direito impõe-se ao Estado, em colaboração com outras entidades detentoras de atribuições e competências nestes domínios, um conjunto de tarefas públicas com ele relacionadas. Com a presente dissertação, procuraremos dar a conhecer ao leitor o papel dos estádios de futebol, enquanto equipamento desportivo de uso coletivo, a posição que ele assume numa cidade em constante redesenho e enquanto elemento de regeneração urbana, bem como dar a conhecer todas as etapas desde a implementação ao funcionamento deste tipo de infraestruturas. Nesta medida, traremos ao púlpito o mítico caso do Estádio Cidade de Coimbra, remodelado para o Euro 2004, e que, por isso, chegou até às nossas instâncias administrativas.Por último, procuraremos elucidar de forma breve a forma como, para lá da sua conceção, implementação e construção, o mesmo, e a respetiva modalidade, são geridas por quem de direito delas fará parte. Em jeito de conclusão final, partindo do Euro 2004 enquanto época de auge no futebol português, analisaremos cinco dos dez estádios construídos para o efeito, para um breve levantamento de questões, do ponto de vista urbanístico e da estética das cidades, suscitadas durante a construção de cada um deles.

Abstract:
Helmets are designed to prevent catastrophic brain injury such as skull fractures and intracranial hemorrhage. Helmets do not prevent concussion, and are sometimes used as a weapon that may actually lead to a concussive injury. Football helmets are certified by the National Operating Committee on Standards for Athletic Equipment (NOCSAE), and the National Football League has also developed criteria for evaluating football helmets independent of NOCSAE. To mitigate concussion and repetitive head impact exposure, the head needs to be taken out of the game, irrespective of the use of helmets.

Abstract:
Since the Great Depression, schools and sports administrators had chosen to manage football’s financial risks by focusing primarily on improving insurance schemes. Large athletic insurance programs offered families and schools a greater degree of financial protection against the risk of football injuries. The development of these programs also influenced football injury epidemiology. Mid-century research using large scale insurance data pointed to the limitations of protective equipment in preventing injuries. Doctors and researchers’ efforts to “save football” in the face of this evidence represented a broad cultural investment in preserving the sport among the experts responsible for protecting youth health. By the early 1960s, the most influential sports and research organizations had zeroed in on setting standards for football helmets as the most important technological strategy needed to control the sport’s hazards.

Abstract:
Over a two- or three-year period, sports equipment manufacturer and retailer A. G. Spalding & Bros. replaces Wright and Ditson as publisher of American football’s rules and in 1891 begins a new publication called Spalding’s Official Football Guide, with Camp as editor and writer. Though possibly wanting to stay above the fray, Camp becomes embroiled in a conflict over the eligibility of graduate players, especially at Pennsylvania, which uses a high percentage of graduate school players. With Penn’s increasing success, students and alumni from Yale and other schools in 1892 and 1893 press the Intercollegiate Football Association to ban graduate school players. As president of the IFA, Yale’s captain, McCormick, leads passage of such a ban. Camp supports McCormick’s action but also suggests a one-year-residency requirement as another way to limit transfer of students just to play football. Pennsylvania and Wesleyan resign from the IFA in November 1893, leaving only Princeton and Yale as members.

Abstract:
By the mid-twentieth century, the unusually large amount of protective gear involved in tackle football became inextricably tied to the sport’s collision nature. Pads and helmets symbolized the sport’s dangers and, it was believed, conferred the protection necessary to render such an aggressive game feasible. Football equipment advertisements aimed at children promoted ideals associated with particular forms of twentieth century American masculinity. Banishing fears, and inspiring confidence and toughness, would enable boys to “smash through” their opponents. The embrace of manufacturers’ contributions to enhancing safety equipment was far more widespread than cynicism about the influence of financial motives. Most sports administrators contended that investment in top quality equipment clearly signified a program’s commitment to safety. Yet some doctors and engineers continued to question how much protection even the best equipment might afford the players who collided with one another on the gridiron.

Abstract:
This chapter examines how Bob Thomas headed for South Bend, Indiana, and arrived at the University of Notre Dame as a walk-on in football. When Thomas appeared for his first day of football workouts, he was greeted with the cold dismissal typically given to walk-ons. After waiting in line for the secondhand equipment issued to non-scholarship players, he was given the ignominious jersey number 98. With first-year students ineligible for the varsity at that time, Thomas spent his initial year at Notre Dame suiting up for the limited number of freshman football games while also playing in a few contests for the university's club soccer team. Otherwise, he acclimated himself to the milieu of college as he took up residence on the North Quad. After completing one semester of a pre-med curriculum, Thomas realized it would be difficult to continue that concentration while playing football. He took some business courses and ultimately ended up majoring in government studies. The chapter then details Thomas's career as a kicker for the Fighting Irish.

Abstract:
This paper describes the function and development of the requirements for modern and high-quality equipment and accessories and also equipment used by the specialized units of the police force of the ČR with a practical example. This is offered in the form of a draft requirement for a transport means – a multifunctional special vehicle, intended specifically to intervene in situations against demonstrators, extremists, and football hooligans. At the same time, this paper briefly describes the system of collecting information regarding other modern means used by other security forces and also those which are available on the market, which are then (if suitable and also upon experience from abroad) proposed for development and use under the conditions of the Czech Police practices.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the Green ICT approach of an Australian Rules football club. In the role of their IT Manager, I had the opportunity to undertake formal training and then formulate an approach to uplifting the club’s environmental credentials. This chapter is all about understanding the ICT equipment’s contribution to the overall emissions of the respective clubs and the industry as a whole. As a case study, this chapter starts with how the football industry is addressing the efforts to reduce carbon emissions, considers the potential for IT to be a low-carbon enabler and then applies it to a specific football club.

Abstract:
The task of geospatial monitoring is one of the most common in the practice of geodetic works. In the twentieth century, the basic principles for carrying out geospatial monitoring, accuracy calculation, observation intervals assignment, and data simulation were developed. However, since that time, both the building and geodetic technologies have been changed considerably. Among modern engineering structures, the building technology of which has undergone significant changes are sport structures. The use of the state-of-the-art sport structures is associated with the presence of specific loads, name a few: the impact of a vast number of spectators (e.g., stadiums, cycle tracks, etc.) or loads directly from the competitions equipment (e.g., bobsleigh tracks, race tracks, etc.). The primary goal of the presented paper is to develop a general approach to the preliminary accuracy calculation of the geospatial monitoring of the sports structures using the methods of structural mechanics. As an example, a football stadium was considered. Based on the simulation, the improved technology of geospatial monitoring for the sports structure was suggested. The in-depth analysis of the creation of geodetic networks for geospatial monitoring was accomplished. At the final step, the results of geospatial monitoring for the football stadium were analyzed, and hands-on recommendations were made.
