The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is a difference between physiological responses to the small-sided games often applied during soccer trainings by changing the dimensions of the fields, the number of players, duration and the rules of the games. 16 sports people, who play soccer in Turkey Hearing- Impaired National soccer Team, having 31, 38±6,02 of age, 177,13±4,38 cms of height, 74,22±4,44 kgs of bodily weight, volunteered for this research.  The subjects were made to play free games with the intervals of 2 days, in different periods of 4x4, in the fields of 36mx24m, in 24 minutes in total in the forms of 1x24, 2x12, 4x6 and 6x4. After each game, a rest period of two days, and between the sets, a rest period of 4 minutes was given. Through anthropometric measurements of the subjects, their lactic acid levels in blood and the number of heart beats after small-sided games were determined. Also the difficulty levels perceived were determined with BORG scale. The data were transferred to IBM SPSS statistics 22 program and the analyses were completed. Friedman test was used to have a look whether there was a difference between descriptive statistics and dependent groups for continuous variables.At the end of the small-sided games applied in different periods and repetitions, a statistical meaningfulness was determined in the comparison of the speed of the heartbeat of the subjects that participated in the study(P<0.001). While a meaningfulness was determined in the comparison of the lactic acid amounts that appeared in the subjects (P<0.01); there was no statistical meaningfulness in the comparison of the perceived difficulty level of the small-sided games played.

This study was conducted to investigate the sub-scales of sports instructions of elite athletes with hearing impairment or hearing loss due to different reasons. A total of 173 hearing-impaired athletes constituted of 54 female and 119 male athletes who are active national team athletes in the age range of 15-25 years. The study was conducted based on Self Determination Theory of Deci and Ryan [9] and on the developed Sports Motivation Scale, Pelletier et al. [24] Kazak [18] applied the validity and reliability of the scale for Turkish athletes. Accordingly, since the p_values calculated for the inner motivation sub-scale and its sub-scales are less than the value of α = .05 which is taken as the level of significance, there is a statistically significant difference in the average scores of the hearing-impaired athletes in their internal motivations and sub-scales. According to gender and educational status, there was no difference in the motivation of the hearing-impaired athletes. According to the age variable, it was seen that older athletes had more external connections. Considering the general motivation scores, the athletes in tennis and swimming were less motivated than others. Elite hearing-impaired athletes are affected by both internal and external impulses. However, internal motivation scores are higher than the external. Internal motivation scores are seen as the lowest in the branch swimming area.

The Relationship

We estimated perceived difficulty with physical tasks, lifestyle, and physical performance in 382 children and adolescents (163 obese, 54 overweight, and 165 normal-weight subjects) and the relationship between perceived physical difficulties and sports participation, sedentary behaviors, or physical performance. Perceived difficulty with physical tasks and lifestyle habits was assessed by interview using a structured questionnaire, while physical performance was assessed through the six-minute walking test (6MWT). Obese children had higher perceived difficulty with several activities of daily living, were less engaged in sports, and had lower physical performance than normal-weight or overweight children; on the contrary, they did not differ with regard to time spent in sedentary behaviors. Perceived difficulty in running and hopping negatively predicted sports participation (P<0.05and <0.01, resp.), while perceived difficulty in almost all physical activities negatively predicted the 6MWT, independently of BMI (P<0.01). Our results indicate that perception of task’s difficulty level may reflect an actual difficulty in obese children. These findings may have practical implications for approaching physical activity in obese children. Exploring both the perception of a task’s difficulty level and physical performance may be useful to design exercise programs that allow safe and successful participation.

ABSTRACT Introduction: It is known that ingestion of carbohydrate-containing beverages can enhance sports perfor-mance. However, many teams do not have sufficient financial resources to invest in commercial products and need to prepare their own hydration drinks. Jacuba is a beverage used as sport drink (source of carbohydrate) in soccer clubs in Northeastern Brazil. Objective: To evaluate the influence of two beverages with carbohydrate on blood glucose, dehydration and fatigue in a soccer team of Northeastern Brazil. Methods: Twenty-two soccer players were evaluated in two days of physical training, with ingestion of water ad libitum and two beverages: 1) maltodextrin-based drink, or 2) Jacuba. Capillary blood glucose was measured before and after training. Fatigue was assessed using Borg Scale after exercise. To evaluate the dehydration of the athletes at the end of exercise, the urinalysis test and the verification of the body mass change during the training were performed. Results: Blood glucose changed to 13.1±29.5 mg/dL and 7.6±22.2 mg/dL on training days with consumption of maltodextrin and Jacuba, respectively, without statistical significance. There were no changes in body mass and in water and total fluids intake in the two days of training. The Borg Scale score after training was 15.2±2.6 and 14.9±3.0 for maltodextrin and Jacuba, respectively (p=0.12). Conclusion: Jacuba can be used to improve hydration and maintain blood glucose in soccer players because their results do not differ with those of mal-todextrin-based drink.

The Subject

Developing effective methods for helping athletes recover from muscle fatigue is deemed essential, particularly on the eves' important competitions. This study aimed to investigate the effects of acupuncture stimulation on athletes' recovery abilities. Subjects were selected from 30 male elite university basketball players who were randomly assigned to 3 groups: acupuncture group, sham group, and normal (control) group, each containing 10 subjects. Acupuncture was carried out on each athlete in acupuncture group at the Neiguan (PC6) and Zusanli (ST36) acupoints, beginning at 15 min prior to exercise and continuing until exhaustion of the subject. Similar acupuncture was also carried out on each athlete in the sham group but the positions were 1 cm away from the PC6 and ST36 acupoints. No acupuncture was conducted on the athletes in the normal group. During the experiments, each subject performed separate runs on the treadmill. The data of heart rate (HRmax), oxygen consumption (VO2max), and blood lactic acid were measured during the rest period and at 3 recovery points of time (5th, 30th and 60th min) post-exercise. The results showed that the acupuncture group (PC6 and ST36) has significantly lower HRmax, VO2max and blood lactic acid than both the sham and normal groups at the 30th min post-exercise. Blood lactic acid of the acupuncture group was also significantly lower than that of the other two groups in the 60th min post-exercise. Our findings have shed some light on the development of effective acupuncture schemes to enhance the recovery ability for elite basketball athletes.

The animal products quality is influenced the physiological compounds in the blood, for example lactic acid. If blood lactic acid levels increase before slaughtering will be accelerate the rigor mortis of meat, thus faster handling is needed. Blood lactic acid also affects the appearance of flesh color of meat. The condition of animals before slaughter (rest period in quarantine) is very influential on rigor mortis. It is important to research blood lactic acid levels before animals are slaughtered. This research was conducted to determine the blood lactic acid levels of bali cattle during the rest period before the animal was slaughtered (ante mortem), so it can be predicted the quality of meat products. Purposive was chosen as a sampling method using elisa test as a determination of lactic acid levels. Fourtysamples of blood taken from cows to be slaughtered at Sanggaran Animal Abattoir, Denpasar, Bali. The results showed that the blood levels of lactic acid in cattle would be cut normally. This shows the quality of resting cattle before slaughter is good.

  The development of women's football worldwide points to the resignification of the approach to team preparation, where anthropometric and capacitive variables play an important role. Ecuador shows no precedent for studies in high-level female soccer players. Accordingly, the objective focused on analyzing the state of anthropometric and capacitive variables of 22 soccer players of the Ecuadorian senior women's national team, which represent 100% of the population. It started from the morphological diagnosis of equipment applying 19 measurements under the protocol of marking and measurement of the International Society for the development of Kineanthropometry (ISAK), the evaluation of the explosive force through three jumps (Tests SJ, CMJ and Abalakob ( AB) and speed (35 meters), The data were subjected to normality criteria (Shapiro-Wilk test), the result of which indicated that the values ​​did not follow a normal distribution, therefore the non-parametric ANOVA test of a Kruskal - Wallis Factor for independent samples. The study was preceded by three research hypotheses. It is shown that there are no significant differences in the variables analyzed by position, being p> 0.05, H0 is accepted in all cases. The results allowed to characterize the team morphologically with a Meso-Endomorph somatotype, irregularities were found in some variables of the morphology of the soccer players (IDG / IMO), suggesting how conclusion a nutritional dietary planning, and enhance muscle mass in the lower extremities from the management of physical direction.  Resumen. El desarrollo del fútbol femenino a nivel mundial, apunta hacia la resignificación del enfoque de la preparación de los equipos, donde juega un rol importante las variables antropométricas y capacitivas. Ecuador no muestra precedentes de estudios en mujeres futbolistas de alto nivel. En concordancia el objetivo se centró en analizar el estado de variables antropométricas y capacitivas de 22 futbolistas del equipo nacional femenino de mayores de Ecuador, las cuales representan el 100% de la población. Se partió del diagnóstico morfológico de equipo aplicando 19 mediciones bajo el protocolo de marcaje y medición de la Sociedad Internacional para el desarrollo de la Cineantropometría (ISAK), la evaluación de la fuerza explosiva a través de tres saltos (Tests SJ, CMJ y Abalakob (AB) y la rapidez (35 metros), Los datos se sometieron a criterios de normalidad (test de Shapiro-Wilk), cuyo resultado indicó que los valores no siguen una distribución normal, en virtud de ello se empleó la prueba no paramétrica ANOVA de un Factor de Kruskal - Wallis para muestras independiente. El estudio estuvo precedido por tres hipótesis de investigación. Se demuestra que no existen diferencias significativas en las variables analizadas por posición; al ser p>0,05 se acepta H0 en todos los casos. Los resultados permitieron caracterizar morfológicamente al equipo con un somatotipo Meso-Endomorfo, se comprueba irregularidades en algunas variables de la morfología de las futbolistas (IDG/ IMO) sugiriendo como conclusión una planificación dietético nutricional, y potenciar la masa muscular en las extremidades inferiores desde la gestión de la dirección física.

In 1955, the US national soccer team landed at the Keflavik airport in Iceland for a government-sponsored three-match tour for the purposes of building goodwill. The exchange occurred as Icelandic public opinion mounted against the American military presence at Keflavik. With this tour, and a subsequent return tour of the Icelandic national team to the United States the following year, Washington used soccer to deal with the Keflavik situation specifically and the political realities of the region more broadly. The global game possessed a unique ability to cut across political lines, as evidenced in how the tours were mediated by Icelandic newspapers of varying political persuasion. It also explores how strategic mishaps—at the level of both federal and sport governance—were not enough to sully the goodwill-building potential of the venture on the whole.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the stress levels of hearing-impaired and physically handicapped elite licensed sportspeople at the national team level. Population of the research has been licensed handicapped sportspeople in Central Anatolia, and the sample group has consisted of 100 participants from this population, who were selected through the convenience sampling method. The questionnaire used in this research consists of two parts. The first part is comprised of demographics questions for determining personal information. In the second part, a stress scale has been used so that stress levels experienced with teammates and trainers can be determined. It has been adapted from the scale used by Yal&ccedil;ın (2009). The scale consists of 10 statements for determining the stress level. These statements were prepared based on the 5-point Likert scale, sorted as &ldquo;never=1, rarely=2, sometimes=3, often=4, very often=5&rdquo;. And reliability of the data has been tested with Cronbach&rsquo;s Alpha coefficient (&alpha;=0.68). Normality distribution tests, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk tests, have been carried out in order to determine whether the data initially presented a normal distribution at the analysis stage. The data were determined to have a normal distribution, and within this purpose, Independent Samples t Test for paired comparisons and One-Way Anova test for multiple comparisons were conducted. As a result, it has been determined that sports affect stress levels positively, there is a significant difference in stress levels of hearing-impaired and physically handicapped sportspeople and there is no significant difference between gender and marital status, educational background and disability.

The Relationship

The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the strength and jump parameters of elite level badminton players in the range oscoref 5, 10, and 15 intervals of smash. A total of 10 male national badminton players with a mean age of 15.2 ± 0.18 years, length of 170.5 ± 2.13 cm, body weight of 59.5 ± 2.48 kg and sports age of 5 ± 1.36 years participated in the study. Leg strength test dynamometer (Prosport-TMR HBD 1000 dynamometer), jump parameters of the subjects were measured with Opto Jump (Microgate, Bolzano). The smash swere performed as 3x30 sec and 3 minutes passive rest protocol was applied after each series. In every 30 seconds, the shots were made by the national team coach with the multishuttle method as 5-10-15. The hit of the parallel smash scored was recorded by the referee. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 23.0 package program. For the relationship between the parameters, Spearman Correlation test and Friedman test were used for comparison of parameters with intermittent jump. As a result of the study, it was seen that there were statistically significant differences in the power and contact time parameters applied during the jumps as the number of smash increased within 30 seconds. In addition, it was found that as the frequency of scored increased, the rate of accuracy and heart rate (KAS) increased. This can be interpreted as a decrease in the scored of the players due to fatigue as the smash frequency increases. ​Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file. Özet Bu çalışma elit seviyedeki badmintoncuların 30 sn içinde yaptıkları 5,10 ve 15 aralıklı smaç vuruşu atış performanslarının kuvvet ve sıçrama parametreleri ile ilişkilerinin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışmaya Ankara Büyükşehir Belediyesi ve Ego Spor Kulübü yaş ortalaması 15.2±0.18 yıl, boy uzunluğu 170.5±2.13 cm, vücut ağırlığı 59.5±2.48 kg ve spor yaşı 5±1.36 yıl olan toplam 10 erkek milli badmintoncu katılmıştır. Araştırmaya katılan deneklerin bacak kuvveti testi dinamometre (Prosport- TMR HBD 1000 dinamometre), sıçrama yükseklikleri ve havada kalış süreleri Opto Jump (Microgate, Bolzano) cihazı ile ölçülmüştür. Smaç vuruşları 3x30 sn şeklinde yapılmış ve her seri sonrası 3 dk pasif dinlenme protokolü uygulanmıştır. Her bir 30 sn ‘de atışlar 5-10-15 şeklinde milli takım antrenörü tarafından top besleme yöntemi ile yapılmıştır. Paralele atılan smaç vuruşlarının isabeti ise hakem tarafından kaydedilmiştir. Verilerin analizi SPSS 23.0 paket programında yapılmıştır. Parametreler arasında ilişki için, Spearman Korelasyon test ve aralıklı sıçrama ile parametrelerin karşılaştırılmasında Friedman test uygulandı. İstatiksel olarak anlamlılık düzeyi p<0.05 olarak kabul edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonucunda 30 sn içinde yapılan atış sayısı arttıkça sıçramalar sırasında uygulanan power ve contact time parametrelerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılıklar olduğu görülmüştür. Bunun yanı sıra atış sıklığı arttıkça isabet oranlarında azalma ve kalp atım sayısında (KAS) artış olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu durum atış sıklığı arttıkça oluşan yorgunluk sebebiyle, oyuncuların isabet oranlarında bir azalmaya sebep olabileceği şeklinde yorumlanabilir.
