Abstract The global interest in the search for and rescue of the Thai youth football team ‘the Wild Boars’, or the nationwide interest in the non-stop fundraising swimming-tour of Dutch swimmer Maarten van der Weijden, are examples of what in this lecture is called high density events: intense, often emotional occurrences, of an almost entertainment-like character, followed continuously by many. High density events shape and articulate ideas about who belong or do not belong to the (national) community. During such events, cultural forms, objects and practices are popularized, transferred and exchanged at a high pace, processes in which virtually anybody may become involved. Taking high-density events as object of research implies a focus on the making of heritage. In the repetitious, ritualized contexts of such events, certain cultural forms, practices and objects may become magnified and sacralised, to become heritage. Although any object or practice may be made heritage, the analysis should situate this making in its societal context, asking such questions as who were involved in the selection process, and why certain practices or objects are self-evidently attributed a heritage status and others not. With cultural identity becoming an ever more explicitly political issue, research into the making of heritage is the more urgent.

Nation branding plays a central role within neoliberal governmentality, operating as a technology of power in the configuration of emerging cultural and political formations such as national identity, citizenship and the state. The discussion of the advertising spot Perú, Nebraska  released as part of the Nation Branding campaign Marca Perú  in May of 2011, constitutes a great opportunity to: (i) argue about the way in which audiovisual advertisement products, designed as performative devises, operate as technologies of power; and (ii) problematize the terms in which it founds a new social contract for the Peruvian multicultural national community. This analysis will allow me to approach neoliberalism as a cultural regime in order to discuss the ideological nature of the uncontested celebratory discourse that has emerged in Perú and which explains the economic growth of the last decades as the outcome of a national entrepreneurial spirit that would be distinctive of Peruvian cultural identity.

Level Performance

The process by which young talents develop to become top-class players once they reach the age of maximum performance is influenced by numerous factors. Among the exogenous factors, the family plays a central role. In the context of a research project carried out in cooperation with the Swiss Football Association SFV, 159 former members of the national youth football team were interviewed retrospectively, among other things concerning their family circumstances. The study is interested in understanding two issues: 1) It examines which family conditions – compared with average Swiss families – lead to success in adolescence (nomination for a national youth team). 2) Since success in adolescence by no means guarantees top-level performance at the age of maximum performance, the heterogeneity of the sample’s adult level of performance is used to compare players who later achieve greater success to the less successful players. It is found that these players come from families with many chil-dren and a strong affinity to sports. Those players who are particularly successful at the age of maximum performance also felt they received more support from their parents and siblings during childhood and adolescence than the players who went on to be less successful.

Introduction: The degree of lipoprotein complexity was unforeseen just a few years ago. Through advances in mass spectrometry it is now recognized that HDL is comprised of >100 proteins and ~200 lipid species in an undetermined number of combinations. These constituents exist in a distribution disequilibrium with each other and to the particle population as a whole. Concealed in this complex particle composition is extensive particle diversity and population heterogeneity and the source of the broad physiology observed with this lipoprotein subclass. Hypothesis: Science is a systematic enterprise that using mathematics and measurement, creates, builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable observations, explanations and predictions. The ongoing identification of HDL constituents necessitates an effort to catalogue, categorize, map and relate entities in a structured framework. This will lead to fundamental understanding that advances knowledge and guides HDL biological research, clinical diagnostics and eventual therapeutic strategies. Methods: Literature analysis was used to produce an HDL proteome reference set. Proteome specific analysis of isoforms, proteolytic products, amino acid modifications and cSNPs were used to prepare a proteoform index. Theoretical tryptic peptide maps were generated and compared to the PeptideAtlas database and available published peptide lists from mass spec studies. Results: More than 300 non-immunoglobulin proteins were identified from the high-density lipoprotein fraction in published human sample studies. A consensus-based selection process produced an “unofficial” list of 122 genes. UniProtKB was used to expand an index of possible proteoforms and derive a theoretical peptide mass map. The theoretical and empirical mass map demonstrate both consistency and significant differences. Conclusions: The health benefits of HDL are not in dispute. However, its predictive value is being challenged. The reductionist approach to measuring HDL has proven insufficient and undermines the use of a Precision Medicine model for CAD. Constructing a conceptual framework to unify constituent data is an initial step to resolving the relational context that exists and its functional consequences.

Abstract BACKGROUND The issue of whether sports-related head trauma at the youth level can result in long-term sequelae that may negatively impact the participant has been widely debated. OBJECTIVE To investigate head impacts in the Summit Youth Football League equipped with helmets using the Riddell InSite impact monitoring system. The monitoring system allowed for analysis of the number of impacts and severity of impacts by player. METHODS Data were obtained for all 20 members of the youth football team. Impacts were recorded as “low,” “medium,” and “high” intensity. RESULTS All 20 players participated in all practices and games throughout the season. No player suffered a concussion throughout the entire season. There were 817 recorded impacts throughout the season. This was an average of 41 impacts per player over the course of the season and fewer than 4 impacts per player per week. Only one impact registered as “high.” CONCLUSION We demonstrate that there are few head impacts over the course of an entire season at the middle school level. Guardian Caps, safe tackling techniques, and the age of participants may have contributed to the very low number of impacts recorded and the complete lack of injuries. This study only provides data demonstrating that youth football, when Guardian Caps and safe tackling techniques are enforced, does not appear to result in significant head impacts causing immediate head injuries. This study cannot comment on the safety of playing football at the collegiate or professional level.

A number of recent studies concerned with Malay history and culture reflect heightened scholarly awareness of cultural unity and structural similarities in the area we know as the “Malay world”. There remains, however, much to be learnt about the boundaries of this world and, in particular, what happens to Malay political and cultural forms at meeting points between Malay and other cultures. In some instances such interaction has led to an absorption of Malay cultural identity by those living on the fringes of Malay kingdoms. A feature often associated with the Malay world is the ease with which it seems to have been possible for those of non-Malay background to adopt Malay language and customs and thus to “become Malay”. This paper, however, will describe a frontier situation where Malay culture itself appears to have been adapted to accommodate local circumstances. It is a situation which assists us to answer the question: to what extent is the concept of a “Malay World” helpful to our understanding of Malay societies?

Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings Should managers take exams to qualify to be leaders? This may sound a little strange, but when one thinks about it, what perhaps is strange is that they do not. At every stage up until they reach the peak, future leaders need to qualify themselves. At school, they take exams like everyone else and do not receive extra marks for exhibiting leadership in math or history. At university, they may perform well in tutor groups and lead the football team, but ultimately they have to pass their exams to graduate. And at the start of their business career, future leaders have to do their inductions, complete all sorts of different training, and probably do an MBA. Practical implications This paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.

El objetivo del presente estudio fue conocer las tareas diseñadas por un entrenador de fútbol-base, así como analizar las diferencias entre la variable Tipo de Mesociclo (TMe) y las variables pedagógicas que influyen en el diseño de tareas llevadas a cabo durante dos mesociclos competitivos en categoría sub-18. Se analizaron un total de 89 tareas repartidas en 14 sesiones durante dos meses, febrero (n=8) y marzo (n=6). El instrumento empleado para el análisis de las tareas fue el Sistema Integral para el Análisis de las Tareas de Entrenamiento (SIATE), donde se analizaron las siguientes variables pedagógicas: Situación de juego (SJ), Presencia de portero (POR), Fase de juego (FJ), Tipo de contenido (CONT-G), Medio de iniciación deportiva (MIE), Nivel de oposición (NO) y Línea de juego (LJ). Los resultados muestran una progresión en la complejidad del diseño de las tareas de entrenamiento. Además, existen diferencias en el diseño de tareas entre los mesociclos analizados, POR y LJ, con un grado de asociación bajo. Es fundamental diseñar entrenamientos donde se trabajen diferentes líneas de juego. Por tanto, el SIATE ha demostrado ser una herramienta óptima para registrar y analizar las tareas en fútbol-base.Abstract. The aim of the present study was to assess the tasks designed by a youth football team coach, as well as to analyze the differences between the independent variable Type of Mesocycle (TMe) and the dependent pedagogical variables influencing the design of training tasks performed during a two-months competitive period in the U-18 category. A total of 89 tasks, distributed in 14 sessions between February (n=8) and march (n=6) were analyzed. The tool utilized for task analysis was the Integral System to Training Tasks Analysis (SIATE, in Spanish), where the following pedagogical variables were registered: Playing situation (SJ), Goalkeeper presence (POR), Playing phase (FJ), Type of content (CONT-G), Sport initiation means (MIE), Opposition level (NO) and Playing role (LJ). The results showed a progression in the complexity of the designed training tasks, finding differences between the analyzed mesocycles. The variables POR and LJ obtained a low grade of association. Designing trainings where different lines of play are worked is essential. Therefore, the SIATE has shown to be an optimal tool for registering and analyzing training tasks in grassroots football.

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of the opponent’s quality on teams’ offensive efficacy of a Brazilian youth football team. The sample comprised 1.304 offensive sequences, from a U-17 team of the Paraná championship. The offensive sequences were divided according to the opponent’s quality (“high quality”, “intermediate quality” and “low quality”). Team’s offensive patterns were analysed through Lag Sequential Analysis. Thus, SoccerEye and SDIS-GSEQ software’s were used (p≤.05; z≥1.96). Offensive patterns with efficacy occurred mainly from directly ball recoveries (lag -5: z=3.13; lag -3: z=2.93), with progression through ball conduction (lag -4: z=2.85; lag -3: z=2.40; lag -2: z=2.64) and dribble (lag -5: 2.62; lag -2: z=2.51; lag -1: z=2.13; 1.97), playing between the lines against the opponent's last defenders’ line (lag -1: z=3.42; 2.72; 2.05; lag 0: z=4.65; 5.06; 3.15; 3.02) or performing rupture unmarks for the empty space between the goalkeeper and the last defensive line (lag -4: z=3.11; lag -1: z=3.48; lag 0: z=4.13; 7.80). Pressed numerical equality in game centre at defensive zones stimulated the possession loss (lag -2: z= 2.06; lag -1: z=3.01; lag 0: z=3.41; 1.96), demonstrating the importance of the numerical and spatial relationship for the effectiveness of actions. The opponent’s quality generated some oscillations in the patterns, nonetheless, in most patterns this team maintained similar behaviours. Considering this youth team, it is suggested that players be encouraged, regardless of the opponent's quality, to advance quickly from the defensive field; dominates the spaces between the lines; perform dribble, ball conduction and rupture unmarks towards the space between the goalkeeper and the opponent's last defensive line; in addition to pressing the opponent into their own field.  Resumen: El objetivo de este estudio fue investigar la influencia de la calidad del oponente en la eficacia ofensiva de un equipo de fútbol Juvenil de Brasil. Se analizaron 1.304 secuencias ofensivas, extraído de 17 partidos de este equipo en el Campeonato Sub-17 de Paraná, 2019. Las secuencias ofensivas se dividieron según la calidad del oponente ("alta calidad", "calidad intermedia" y "baja calidad"). Los patrones ofensivos del equipo se analizaron a través del análisis secuencial de retardos. Por lo tanto, se utilizaron los softwares SoccerEye y SDIS-GSEQ (p≤.05; z≥1.96). Los patrones ofensivos con eficacia ocurrieron principalmente a partir de recuperaciones directas de balón (lag -5: z=3.13; lag -3: z=2.93), con progresión a través de conducción (lag -4: z=2.85; lag -3: z=2.40; lag -2: z=2.64) y gambeta (lag -5: 2.62; lag -2: z=2.51; lag -1: z=2.13; 1.97), jugando entre líneas contra la última línea de defensores del oponente (lag -1: z=3.42; 2.72; 2.05; lag 0: z=4.65; 5.06; 3.15; 3.02) o realizando desmarques de ruptura para el espacio vacío entre el portero y la última línea de defensa (lag -4: z=3.11; lag -1: z=3.48; lag 0: z=4.13; 7.80). La igualdad numérica presionada en el centro de juego en las zonas defensivas estimuló la pérdida de posesión (lag -2: z= 2.06; lag -1: z=3.01; lag 0: z=3.41; 1.96), demostrando la importancia de la relación numérica y espacial para la efectividad de las acciones. La calidad del oponente generó algunas oscilaciones en los patrones, sin embargo, en la mayoría de los patrones este equipo mantuvo comportamientos similares. Teniendo en cuenta este equipo juvenil, se sugiere que se aliente a los jugadores, independientemente de la calidad del oponente, a avanzar rápidamente desde el campo defensivo; dominar los espacios entre líneas; realizar gambeta, conducción y desmarques de ruptura hacia el espacio entre el portero y la última línea defensiva del adversario; además de presionar al oponente en su propio campo.
