Abstract:
Perception relates not only to the optical information from the environment but also to the perceiver's performance on a given task. We present evidence that the perceived height and width of an American-football field goal post relates to the perceiver's kicking performance. Participants who made more successful kicks perceived the field goal posts to be farther apart and perceived the crossbar to be closer to the ground compared with participants who made fewer kicks. Interestingly, the current results show perceptual effects related to performance only after kicking the football but not before kicking. We also found that the types of performance errors influenced specific aspects of perception. The more kicks that were missed left or right of the target, the narrower the field goal posts looked. The more kicks that were missed short of the target, the taller the field goal crossbar looked. These results demonstrate that performance is a factor in size perception.

Abstract:
Goal-kicking is an important skill in Australian Football (AF). This study examined whether kinematic differences exist between accurate and inaccurate goal-kicks and determined the relationships between technical factors and accuracy. Eighteen elite to sub-elite AF players performed 15 x 30 m goal-kicks on an AF training ground, with three-dimensional kinematics collected using the Xsens inertial measurement system (Xsens Technologies B.V., Enschede, the Netherlands). A general linear mixed modelling approach and regression-based statistics were employed to quantify differences between accurate and inaccurate goal kicks and the relationships between technical factors and accuracy. Accurate goal-kicks were characterised by a straighter approach line, with less kick-leg joint range of motion (knee and hip), lower linear velocity (centre of mass, foot speed), angular velocity (knee and shank), and less support-leg knee flexion during the kicking phase compared to inaccurate goal-kicks. At the end of the follow through, players produced greater ankle plantarflexion and a straighter-leg line in accurate goal-kicks. Findings in this research indicated that many factors interact with goal-kicking accuracy in AF, ranging from the players’ approach line path, their support-leg mechanics, the kick-leg swing motion, to the final position of the kicker during their follow through.

Abstract:
Set shot goal-kicking is recognized as an important skill in Australian Football (AF), accounting for over half of all goals kicked in the Australian Football League (AFL). However, as knowledge surrounding its performance is limited, this study described the frequency, types, and outcomes of set shots in the AFL and investigated the impact of task, personal, and environmental constraints on goal-kicking performance. We analyzed video footage of set shots from all 198 matches of the 2012 season, collecting data for kick distance, kick angle, player position, player experience (i.e., general and specific), kick outcome, and weather status. We found an average of 23.0 (standard deviation [ SD] = 4.5) set shots/match, with a mean accuracy of 55.0% ( SD = 0.7%). Kicking accuracy decreased with incremental increases in kick distance, with accuracy ranging from 97% (0–15 m) to 36% (≥50 m). Key forwards were more accurate kickers than other players. There was no significant effect of player experience. The number of set shots taken decreased by 13% in wet weather conditions. The primary determinant of elite set shot goal-kicking performance was the interaction of kick distance and angle (task difficulty). This research adds to an understanding of how personal, environmental, and match constraints influence this closed skill performance in AF match play.

Abstract:
There are various types of sports, one of which is soccer. Almost all people in the world know this sport, even though they don't like it or don't play it, at least most people in the world know this type of sport. The goal of soccer is to score as many goals as possible against the opponent's goal. To be able to score a goal must be able to kick the ball well. To improve students' kicking skills, the way to do this is by using the traditional game of pecle. The goal to be achieved is to determine the effect of the traditional pecle game on the kick strength of students who take part in soccer extracurriculars at SDN Leuwipicung. In this study, the researchers used a quasi-experimental posttest only control group design. The population in this study were 25 students of SD Negeri Leuwipicung who took part in extracurricular football. In this study, the researchers used a saturated sampling technique because the population was less than 30 people. Data were obtained using interviews, observation, practical tests and documentation. The test used is kicking for distance from warner test of soccer skill. The results of the reliability test using Cronbach's Alpha with the result of 0.153. That way the reliability test gets reliable results because the Alpha value > 0.60. Based on the results obtained, the results of the research on the traditional game of pecle have an effect on kicking power in soccer.

Abstract:
Innovative strategies were used to inform coaching practices regarding the skill of set-shot goal kicking in Australian Football (AF). An action learning approach was adopted including planning, data gathering, analyses and dissemination phases. Three distinct approaches were used to inform AF coaches of evidence and strategies to guide implementation, a) applying statistical trend data, b) applying expert knowledge, and c) applying biomechanical principles. Trend data from a full AFL season consisting of over 4,000 set-shots was used to inform coaches on numerous performance related parameters (e.g., distance, angle). Expert insider perspectives were generated through in-depth interviews with eight retired AF goal kicking champions. The past players had all kicked over 500 goals at the elite level and four had obtained AFL Hall of Fame or AFL Legend status. The related analyses produced six primary themes (a) correct technique (b) incorrect technique, (c) pre-kick routine, (d) mental skills (e) challenges/choices and (h) training. Third, biomechanical principles were applied to set-shot kicking with accompanying images and drills provided to coaches. A two year follow-up indicated the results were highly transferable to training and competitions. Coaches in sports that include closed skills may benefit from transferring where applicable these strategies to their sports.

Abstract:
Goal-kicking is an important skill in Australian Football (AF), accounting for approximately 62% of points scored during a match (Anderson et al., 2018). Despite its importance, little biomechanical research has examined the key technical characteristics underpinning the skill. The aims of this thesis were to validate a methodological approach to enable quantification of goal-kicking kinematics in a field environment, and examine goal-kicking technique and identify technical factors associated with accuracy. In Chapters 3 and 4, the Xsens inertial measurement system (IMS) was validated against a Vicon motion capture system (MAS) when measuring lower extremity and pelvis kinematics. Trivial to small mean differences (0.2-10.1%) and measurement error (0.1-7.9%) were found between the IMS and MAS across all parameters, advocating the use of IMS to quantify kicking kinematics. In Chapter 5, the effect of modifying the task constraints on accurate goal-kicking was explored. Increasing the distance of the shot from goals (30 m to 40 m) required substantially greater joint range of motion (knee and hip), with higher linear (foot speed) and angular (knee and shank) velocities. Altering the angle of the shot (0 to 45°) had no substantial influence on accurate goal-kicking technique. Findings indicated adjustments in goal-kicking technique may be required dependent on the location of the shot. In Chapter 6, 18 elite to sub-elite AF players performed 15 x 30 m goal-kicks in-front of goals and technique was examined on group-basis. A number of substantial kinematic differences were identified between accurate and inaccurate goal-kicks. For example, accurate goal-kicks were characterised by substantially less kick-leg joint range of motion (ankle, knee and hip), lower linear (com, foot speed) and angular (knee and shank) velocities, with less support-leg knee flexion during the kicking phase. In addition, a number of substantial linear and quadratic relationships were reported between technical parameters and accuracy. Findings indicated that many factors influence goal-kicking accuracy in AF; ranging from technical errors in the player’s approach, configuration of their support-leg and kick-leg motions, through to follow-through position. In Chapter 7, goal-kicking data from chapter 6 was examined on individual-basis. All players demonstrated substantial kinematic differences between accurate and inaccurate goal-kicks, along with substantial relationships between kinematic parameters and accuracy, but these were individual-specific. A combination of both a group and individual-based analysis provided a more thorough understanding of technical factors which influence goal-kicking technique in AF. The body of work in this thesis provides: 1) validation of a methodological approach to quantify kicking biomechanics, and 2) a comprehensive understanding of technical factors associated with goal-kicking accuracy in AF, and 3) recommendations for both research and coaching practice.

Abstract:
In this thesis, machine learning techniques are applied to enhance the development and implementation of methodologies in performance analysis. Ecological dynamics is used as a theoretical framework to underpin these methodologies. Australian Rules football is used as an exemplar to understand the influence and interaction of constraints on player and team dynamics. There is extensive theoretical research on the interaction of constraints in sport, however common analysis techniques have typically only explored one or two constraints and therefore do not fully reflect the complexity of the competition environment. To better understand the competition environment, the nexus of constraints must be considered in the analysis of sport. This thesis aims to address this gap. Firstly, this thesis explores how the use of ecological dynamics may aid the implementation of an interdisciplinary approach to sports performance research. These considerations are applied to Australian Football field and goal kicking, by exploring how multiple constraints interact and impact skilled performance, and how these differ between competition tiers. Furthermore, differences between analysis techniques are identified and aspects such as feasibility and interpretability are highlighted to facilitate an improved translation of research to the applied setting. Additionally, this analysis is furthered by exploring event sequences, determining not only the influence of multiple constraints around a disposal but also the preceding events. This thesis aims to advance the application of methodologies that explore multiple constraints and sequences of events, in order to enhance knowledge of the competition and training environments.

Abstract:
This chapter reflects on how, after a four-year journey with tiresome nights of classes while balancing professional football and being a new husband, Bob Thomas got set to tackle his final term at Loyola University in the spring semester of 1981. His daily routine required driving to Lake Forest for meetings and practices from his home in the western suburbs, into Chicago for law school in the evenings, and then commuting back home. By May, he had plowed through the remainder of his coursework. Only the bar exam—looming in late July—stood between him and his goal of becoming a practicing attorney. He took a break from his studies in early June and returned to Rochester to continue a summer tradition with his father. For the past several years, his father had run a two-week kicking camp with which Bob assisted. It was one of the few places where youngsters could learn the finer points of the soccer style. In retrospect, Bob was indeed proud of the results his father had attained at the camp—but was equally impressed with what an innovator his father was. The chapter then recounts how Bob was dismissed from the Chicago Bears.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Practiced by millions of people around the world, taekwondo has quickly become a popular sport due to its technical innovation and spectacularity. The goal is to objectify the refereeing and make taekwondo even more attractive to the general public. Comparing technical performance in competitions spanning a decade would shed more light on the specific endurance needed by the modern taekwondo fighter. The aim of our study was to determine how the technical (quantitative and qualitative) indicators in competition have changed for the elite taekwondo athlete since the introduction of the electronic scoring system in 2009. The video analysis we performed on Sofia Grand Prix 2019 enabled us to compare the data with previously reported such from 2009. We discovered that the types of kicks used by the competitors amounted to 13 (2009) and 28 (2019). The variation analysis we performed showed that the average strikes per match were 76 (2009) and 193 (2019) with an average per round amounting at 25.33 (2009) and 64.33 (2019). The match-es with the most kicks 121 (2009) 208 (2019) were compared, as well as those with the least hits 40 (2009) and 108 (2019). In 2009, the competitors performed a kick every 4.73 seconds, while in 2019 every 1.86 seconds. Based on our findings we concluded that the number of kicks in a taekwondo match has increased twofold compared to 10 years ago, which means that the requirements for speed and strength endurance are even greater. Although the introduction of the electronic scoring system in taekwondo has led to a significant increment in the number and types of techniques in the taekwondo match, the technical indicators of the winners demonstrate that it is not necessary for the athlete to master the whole set of kicking techniques. It is enough to know 3 to 4 kicking techniques but to apply them successfully.

Abstract:
The starting field position is often a deciding factor in an American football game. In the case of a defensive stop, a kick, known as a punt, is used to give the receiving team a field position that is more advantageous to the kicking team when possession changes. The goal of the punter is to kick the ball along a desired flight path, where a delicate balance between the distance traveled before impact, hang time in the air, and the distance traveled after bouncing is favorable for the kicking team. However, the punter has only imprecise control over the initial conditions, such as the angular velocity, linear velocity, and orientation of the football. Due to the highly nonlinear behavior of the football, from aerodynamic and impact forces, even small changes in initial conditions can produce large changes in the final position of the football, but there may be regions of initial conditions with relatively consistent results. If punters could target such large contiguous regions of initial conditions with desirable football paths, they could improve their chances of successful kicks. For nonlinear systems, basins of attraction diagrams are often used to graphically display the initial conditions that lead to different final attractors. In this case, the regions of initial conditions that lead to a desirable final field position can be grouped and shown graphically. A numerical simulation program was developed including models for aerodynamic flight and bouncing of the irregularly shaped football. The flight model used fourth order Runge-Kutta integration of the equations of motion of the football, including gravitational and aerodynamic forces and moments with empirical lift, drag, and yaw coefficients in three dimensions. The bounce model was based on an empirical two-dimensional coefficient of restitution model that was published in the literature. The behavior of a football in flight and during bouncing was simulated for a range of initial angular velocities and launch angles, and the characteristics of the flight paths were analyzed. The characteristics of some regions of initial conditions were relatively sensitive to small changes, while other regions were relatively uniform. This shows that this approach, with a quantitatively accurate bounce model, could be practically applied to develop a guide for punters to optimize their kicks. With such a guide and sufficient practice, punters could select and target the larger regions of initial conditions that produced desirable behavior, which would improve their chances of successful punts.
