Kathleen Parker and Megan Newman [And the Heisman goes to SPED 6402 April 7, 2010 @ Hands on Spons Conference with the Coach The Playot's Athiet t Hurning head: RESEARCHED PHYSICS OF THE GAME Content esearch Paper Researched Physies of the Game and Resuting Equipment Changes Xatniaen Parker and Megan Newman SPED 6402 January 25, 2010 East Carolina University Hesearched Physics of the Gama and Resulting Equipment Changes Good sports equipment is designad with the physics of the gamo in mind (James, 2003). Cquipment is 62s gned to enhance and improve pertarmanee from the perspective c! a scientist end the athlete, The designer of the equipment will take var ables such as surlaces, climate and weather con ions, and body makeup into corsicoration when designing a precust. tis then up to the atilete to choose cqjaipmert that will mest senefit heir needs. Take for instance, running shoes, The sh sworn by an athe are proven io alfedt leg sifnass. A signticant diferenca in lug stfness was {ound between runing baretoot and running in high cushion shoes (Bishop, Fil, Conrad, Brunt, & Horodyshi 2006). Aa athlete's use of a high quality show would ebviously enhance thei running performance ever time. Itan athlete is injured because of subpar running shoes, their pertormarce will suffer. Equipment ign car de changed to alter the game (James, 2008). In the area of headgear, 2 new study found most on-field head injuries, specifically concussions, occur because cf sice Impact nits. A new helmet is being introduced called the revolution. It has technology that wil help reduce the rsk of a concussion. This isthe first structural change in helmets in 25 yeas. It is designed to fit the nead so that it works with the read’ center of gravity to make it as comfortable and ber Jal to the player as, possible (www.nuerosikls. com, 2008). Recently in the news, there have been reports of eoncusion related injurios resulting in death in athlotes porforming at tha high sehoo! Joval. With the naw helmet advances, athletes can prevent or reduce ch Injures happening. Knowing the physics of the gam 1n change the outcome (James, 2008 High quality sports facililies are an essential tool in recruiting top collagiate athletes and coachos (Dahniert & Pack, 2007). Not aniy does the squipmont affect the performance and wellness of the players, but the facities end playing fold on which the playors aro performing also have an impact on the game. A specifi design can be used 1o provide these athlotes with comfortable and appealing accommodations (Dahinert & Pack, 2007). Take for example, a track competition. Because runners ina competition finish hundredths of @ second apart, the kane thal they are running in may very well make a citfererce (James, 2008). Tho inside lara is obviously more appealing because ot ine tighter i ide tums, but aooarding to physics it's also better because you may reviave the sound ofthe staring gun al up to .03 seconds earlier tran ‘semeone in the outside lane since you are 10 meters eleser to the qun (James, 2008) [Another exaoio of influential equipment is the “super su, which was being used in Intemational s ring compotitions. This swimsuit is made of a plastic imitation that hain reduso a swimmer's drag and increases their buoyancy in the water. n 2010, this suit was outlawed for use in compe lons because of its effects on a swimmer's parlormance (aw.\une.cart, 2009). Advances can also be made to limit performance for the benefit of the players and spectators. For example, in the 1980/5, the javelin was, changed to reduce its aerodynamic qualities for the safety of the onlookors. Payers wore ret able to launch the javelin with the sama velocity sinc the center of gravity of the javelin was moved 4 om, towards the front of the ball (James, 2008). Changes to Sports equipment, such as these, can atfect the performance of an athlete by enhancing or iphibiting thelr pertarmance level. All the while, the changes are developing tne gamo to mako it mare fair and sala, These changes are only as helpful as they are Uilizee. If regulations are ertorced by governing bodies, players will not reap the benefits of ne use ct such hich quality and research eriven equipment In roferonce te football, many changes have been rade to improve the shape of the ball. The football has changed trom its ariginal more roundod, rugby like shape te now more of a bullet-shaped ball, Mor metic advances have been made allowing tne ballte have white stipes on ether end, which alow the players to see the bell better. The specifications for the foctball thal we see today have been in effect since 1982 (Oure, 2007). In soceer, changes te the ball have enhanced the perceptions that audiences have of ihe players. Before the 1970's, the foolbal was made of a leather thal was not walerproet, By the end of a game, the ball woulé be signficant\y heavier because of is water absorotion curing te game. Now, the bal used in games is sealed watertight using waterproot leather as well as a tighter sttching, causing the ball to remain the came weight atthe end of the came as ffs atthe Beginning of the garne (ames, 2006). With this in mind, how ean we compare our athiates of the present 10 the athlotos ct a ditforont era? Lkawice, how can we compare athletes using a second ‘ale quality ct equipment to those athletes using the mest advanced equipment curing a game? Since 1929, youth football leagues have deen providing an outlet for children to play erganizec spans. What was formerly known a Junior Foctball Conference spar the boginning of the youth football eaguas in America. Now, this earfarenso, bella: known as Poo Warmer Youth Football's ome of the nation’s largest leagues wr pepwarner com, 2010). Ever with its long history in America, there are stil few regulations in youth teotball. According to American Youth Football and Cheer (2004), {ectnall regulations regarding equipment and risk management are lal up to the Individual organizations proterences. Youth football playors are recommended to wear weciic equipment during games. They are recommanded io wea a helmet, a face imasé, shoulder pacs, gale and hip pads, thigh guards, knee pads, a mouthpiece, pants, and an athievc supporter (www usafootball com, 2010). These are recommendations, not raquitorents for youth football players. There are n0 set requiroments regarding qually of equipment use in youth football, Equipment requlation i determined by the cal governing body’ in charge of the youth football league in that area. |" te local body of the area in question is net constantly updating their regulations and requirements for youtn foctball leagues, tney will potentially be ocroasing the chance for success of that young athiato, singe tochnology and physics ‘arg constarily changing the game, The rule makers for an area must bo at krowlodyoablo of tneir game as the athletes are physically prepared for their gatnia. Wit the rising interest in youth football as a preparatory step to higher level ‘Game, producers of football equipment are looking to create the most technologically advanced equioment available 1o ensure athlete success and safety. Riddell, the producer of the official helmet of the NFL, has recei ly introducod the only helmet that has peer-reviewed research supporting ts reduetion of concussion risks up 19 (waw.rddell com, 2009) Adams USA, one of Riddel's competitors n footba’ equipment production and distribution, claims to have created a helmet :nat cisperses nergy and increases strength and stability by contouring to the shape of the head (wn adunsusa com, 2009). However, this helmet makes ne claims regarding safely in the evant of a concussion, The cost of the Adams Y-4 Youth Elite I! holmot is approximately $75.00, depending on where you purchase the heimet, The cost of a Riddell Youth helmet is approximatoly $160.09, depending on where you purchase the met, With the Aldea being over twice the cost of the Adams heimet, not all athletes, may have access lo such a high quality piece of equipment, Those athletes that do not have aocass to a higher quality piece of equipment because of expense could risk a higher rata of injury on the field, causing their chance of success later in Ite to be allerod. Understanaing of technology and the physics af the game are Improving every duo in part :o used by a toam co affect the performance of the players, in both areas of performance anid day. Sports have changed drastically from past to presert day, and thi the reseat 12 put into the sport. Its proven that equipment and facil safety. With such knowladge, professionals ar tempting to ragulate as much of the equipment usad in ine game as possinla, while youth and recreational teams soem to siillack the reculations.
