Abstract:
Weber’s legitimacy theory has been diffused widely throughout the corporate and political context but not to thesporting world. This paper adopts Weber’s legitimacy theory to better understand the context of Australian sport,particularly as it relates to soccer’s standing in the culture. For the majority of its Australian existence, soccer wasnot part of the mainstream, and academic and other writing has labelled it illegitimate. However, despiteappropriating the illegitimacy label, no theoretical model has been applied to the assertion. Weber’s Theory ofLegitimacy depicts three types of legitimacy; charismatic, legal/rational and traditional. This qualitative researchutilized interview data collected from a purposive sample (N=22) of the influential people who determined soccer’slegitimacy as a result of the sport’s restructure in 2003, through to the nationally acclaimed triumph of winning themen’s Asian Cup in 2015. The data was then compared against Weber’s theory to better understand soccer’stransformation, showing that Australian soccer was legitimised by the recruitment and leadership of Frank Lowy(charismatic), the intervention of the Federal Government (legal/rational) and the inter-generational growth of thesport’s popularity and participant base (traditional). This paper not only attempts to theorise Australian soccer butalso raises some important questions regarding Australian soccer studies in general.

Abstract:
Previous findings of skewed birth date distributions among sports professionals have been interpreted as evidence for a systematic discrimination against children born shortly before the cut-off date for each age grouping. Alternative explanations for these findings exist, however. This research therefore attempted to replicate the effect in a cross-cultural comparison. A strong relative age effect in professional soccer was found in Germany, Japan, Brazil, and Australia, showing that the effect is independent of different cut-off dates and a variety of climatic and sociocultural factors. A shifted peak in the birth date distribution of Australian soccer professionals paralleling a corresponding change in the cut-off date in Australian soccer in 1989 was also established. This pattern of results provides strong evidence for the cut-off date in youth soccer as the main cause for the relative age effect in professional soccer.

Abstract:
The current study aimed to investigate the performance characteristics that discriminate Australian youth soccer players according to their academy status. A total of 165 youth soccer players participated in this study and were sub-divided into either an early adolescence ( n = 92, age = 13.0 ± 0.6 years) or mid-adolescence ( n = 73 age = 14.8 ± 0.6 years) group. Players completed multifactorial assessments of anthropometry, motor competence, physical fitness, decision-making and psychological traits. Statistical significance was set at p ≤ 0.05. Multivariate analysis of variance identified dynamic balancing ability (both age groups), object manipulation (mid-adolescence), lateral jumping ability (both age groups), linear speed over 5 m (both age groups), change of direction skill (mid-adolescence), intermittent aerobic endurance (mid-adolescence) and total response time on a decision-making assessment (early adolescence) to discriminate academy status. Interestingly, a binomial logistical regression showed that a 0.1 s decrease in sprint time (i.e. running faster) increased the odds of a player belonging to a tier one academy by 19% and 47% for early and mid-adolescent players, respectively. Overall, performance in the motor competence and physical fitness assessments were in favour of the tier one academy players. These findings are indicative of a potential selection bias in the Australian talent pool or a training effect whereby tier one academy programmes emphasise the development of physical attributes. However, future research is required to further substantiate this in a larger sample of youth soccer players from other playing regions within Australia.

Abstract:
The ideal implementation of soccer injury prevention programs is essential knowledge for soccer coaches. The objective of this study was to investigate and compare the implementation of injury prevention programs, specially the FIFA 11+ program, among Australian and Saudi Arabian soccer coaches. A Web-based survey was used to obtain information regarding the coaches’ implementation of injury prevention programs, the FIFA 11+ program, the Nordic hamstring exercise, pre- and post-training exercises. Sixty coaches—30 from both selected countries—responded to the survey (response rate = 75%). In Australia, 93% of the coaches implemented an injury prevention program; while 73% implemented the FIFA 11+ program, only 51% implemented all the FIFA 11+ exercise components as recommended. In Saudi Arabia, 70% of the coaches stated that they followed an injury prevention program, but only 40% followed the FIFA 11+ program. However, 70% reported using all the FIFA 11+ exercise components in their current practices, which they may have adapted from different exercise-based injury prevention programs. The Australian coaches were significantly more likely to implement injury prevention programs ( p = 0.020) and the FIFA 11+ program ( p = 0.009). Nonetheless, no significant difference in the full implementation of the FIFA 11+ exercises components was found ( p = 0.114). The Australian coaches had greater awareness of injury prevention programs and more familiarity with the FIFA 11+ program than the Saudi Arabian coaches. Nevertheless, there was a gap between the coaches’ knowledge and their actual practice.

Abstract:
Objectives To determine whether the technical ability of Australian youth soccer players could distinguish between various playing levels. Design A cross-sectional observational design was used with each player required to complete four technical tests. Methods Sixty-two participants were representatives of three cohorts of youth soccer in Australia: national elite ( n = 18), state elite ( n = 22) and sub-elite ( n = 22). The technical tests used were Loughborough Short Passing Test (LSPT), long passing test (LPT), shooting test and speed dribbling, with all players familiarised with the tests prior to data collection. Differences between cohorts were analysed using a multiple analysis of variance test with follow-up analyses of variance and Tukey Honest Significant Difference post-hoc test, which were subsequently used to inform a sensitivity analysis, more specifically a bootstrapped receiver operating curve to determine cut-off scores for each variable. Results The national elite cohort scored better than state- and sub-elite cohorts on the LSPT, however, the state elite produced the fastest time before penalties. The sub-elite cohort scored less points on the LPT compared to both national- and state-elite cohorts, on both feet. In regards to speed dribbling, national-elite players were faster than both the state- and sub-elite cohorts. Shooting accuracy and velocity were able to discriminate the national- and sub-elite cohorts on the dominant foot, with shooting velocity on the nondominant foot being faster for the national elite compared to both the state- and sub-elite cohorts. Conclusions A number of differences in technical ability were identified between varying levels of Australian youth soccer players. Youth soccer coaches and sports scientists should use the cut-off scores for the technical tests in the talent identification and development process, with aspiring players aiming to reach these levels.

Abstract:
Despite soccer being arguably the world's most popular sport, Australia's national soccer competition has consistently failed to attract the prolonged mainstream support that is given to the comparable rugby league, Australian Rules football and rugby union competitions. This is a puzzling situation considering Australia's British lineage, soccer's British origins and the game's pre-eminent international status. Indeed, soccer's lowly position in Australia is paradoxical given the sport's historically dominant status in Britain and Australia's traditional adoption of Anglocentric culture. Most research into the situation has pointed to the sport's inability to shake-off the adverse effects of a lingering connection to post-World War II immigration and certain ethnic communities. Soccer has, in the eyes of many, been unable to access popular culture primarily because it has been viewed by the mainstream as 'foreign' or inherently un-Australian. The sport has clashed with traditional notions of national identity even though, historically, the Australian men's national team has received relatively strong community support. Strangely though, there has been little attention paid to the role the mass media has played in establishing, maintaining and even altering soccer's position in relation to mainstream Australian culture. While some researchers, such as Mosely and Hay, have criticised the media's coverage of violence associated with soccer at the domestic level, there has been no textual analysis of the mass media's role in soccer's marginal position in Australian popular culture. Considering that the mass media is critical to the development, reinforcement and maintenance of culture and has been implicated in shaping entire professional sporting competitions to its own ends, this is an area of considerable scholarly neglect. By undertaking a textual analysis of the mainstream newspaper coverage given to two critical periods in the history of the Australian men's soccer team it becomes clear that there is marked divergence between the media's treatment of internationally-based soccer and domestically-based soccer. This divergence in coverage has contributed to the development of two distinct mediated 'realities' of soccer, which in turn has influenced the game's ambivalent place in mainstream Australian culture. First, the media's control over the news production process has given it the ability to send textual messages that elevate soccer from its traditional cultural exclusion- and establish the national team as part of the historically dominant Anglocentric mainstream culture in Australia. This process has been inextricably linked to the increasing ethnic diversity of Australia's population and the dominant culture's efforts to maintain, despite this emerging plurality, the preeminence of a traditional Australian 'way of life'. Second, the media's messages have helped to maintain the ascendancy of the dominant culture by establishing the characteristics of modern day corporatised sport as the 'normal' expectation for soccer's development in Australia. As a result, soccer's future in Australia is deemed to be limited until it is able to conform fully to the commercialised and professionalised mode of production that defines the sport overseas.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to develop a physiological profile of elite Australian Youth soccer players. Over three years, 150 players from the U'17, U'20 and U'23 national squads were tested for six measurements - height, weight, sum of eight skinfolds, vertical jump, maximum oxygen consumption and speed over twenty metres. Comparisons were made between those selected in the final team (classified as Successful) and those who failed to be selected (classified as Unsuccessful) to determine any significant differences between the two groups A physical and physiological profile was obtained for each player - expressed as a single value in both numerical and graphical formats. Players were ranked based on this score to determine significant differences between successful and unsuccessful players. Several significant differences (p<0.05) were found between Successful and Unsuccessful groups for a number of the variables primarily in the performance area rather than in the anthropometry parameters. For all squads, significant differences (P<0.05) were found between those who made the squad and those who did not when ranked based on their physical and physiological score. This study highlights the importance of the application of scientific testing to soccer Furthermore, it provides a system by which players' results can be analysed and ranked, and expressed in a format that provides the coach with immediate feedback as to an individual's specific strengths and weaknesses as a basis for training and team selection.

Abstract:
La nature, l'évolution et l'origine des fluides circulant à la base de deux bassins gréseux protérozoi͏̈ques (Kombolgie et Athabasca) associés à des minéralisations uranifères de type discordance ont été caractérisées. L'étude multitechnique (microthermométrie, Raman, LlBS) des inclusions fluides piégées dans différents types de quartz a permis de reconstituer la composition chimique détaillée des paléofluides impliqués dans le dépôt des minéralisations. L'évolution P, T, x de ces fluides à l'interface socle/couverture gréseuse a été reconstituée. Le modèle de circulation de fluides et de relation fluides-minéraux proposé pour les deux bassins est le suivant : La diagenèse siliceuse précoce s'est produite en présence d'une saumure chlorurée, principalement sodique (15 - 20 wt. % NaCI + 4-12 wt. % CaCI2), oxydante (équilibrée avec l'hématite), expulsée de niveaux évaporitiques. La circulation d'une saumure chlorurée, riche en calcium (25-30wt. %CaCI2+0-10wt%NaCI) est responsable du dépôt de quartz secondaire et de dravite dans les grès, à l'émergence des failles ancrées dans le socle. Le caractère très calcique de cette saumure résulte très probablement de l'évolution de la saumure sodique par échange Na Ca lors de l'altération des roches du socle. Un fluide peu salé réchauffé dans les roches du socle, présentant des traces de méthane, a été observé à la base du bassin Kombolgie (Australie), où il dilue les saumures à la faveur de réactivations tectoniques et des bréchifications hydrauliques associées. Les fluides des bassins Kombolgie et Athabasca sont très semblables. Dans les deux districts, l'évolution d'une saumure à dominante sodique vers une saumure plus calcique, ainsi que des mélanges entre ces deux pôles ont été mis en évidence. Les températures et profondeurs estimées pour les deux bassins sont comparables: 160 + ou - 20ʿC et 4 à 6 km. Cependant, les saumures observées à la base du bassin Athabasca sont sensiblement plus concentrées que celles du bassin Kombolgie. Le fluide peu salé est très rare dans l'environnement des gisements canadiens. Il est tardif par rapport aux saumures et ne se mélange pas avec elles. Il circule probablement après une première phase se minéralisations puisqu'il est fortement contaminé par H2 et 02, qui sont produits par radiolyse de l'eau au contact de l'uranium. La genèse des gisements d'uranium canadiens semble davantage lié aux interactions entre les saumures et les lithologies réductrices du socle, qu'à des processus de mélanges entre les saumures et un fluide réducteur. En revanche, ces derniers sont très probablement à l'origine de la formation des gisements australiens. La présence de niveaux évaporitiques ayant pu générer des saumures chlorurées fortement concentrées représente un paramètre majeur dans le processus global de genèse de telles concentrations en uranium.

Conduction of electricity is achieved by contact between terminal of plug and copper of socket. The contact force, created by the deformation copper of socket caused by insertion of plug, is the key factor to keep current transmission. The difference in contact force will cause a change in electric conduction performance. The design of the copper of socket must follow the specification to ensure the safety and the economic benefits. In this study, design of experimental method、structural analysis of finite element program ANSYS、neural network and optimization of MATLAB were integrated for optimization of copper of socket. A metamodel between copper of socket and contact force will be constructed by using design of experimental approach、contact force of nonlinear structural analysis of ANSYS、back propagation neural network of MATLAB. Some verification data set will also be used to check the correctness of metamodel. Then the genetic algorithms will be applied for shape design of copper of socket for maximum contact force. The approach used in this study is an accuracy、flexible and efficient for optimization of copper of socket.

Purpose: To analyze and compare the training models and managements among three different teams, including Colorado RUSH team, Canberra United team and Vancouver Whitecaps team. Methods: The relevant information were collected by attending every team’s training seasons, and the SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats) analysis was used to compare the training models and managements among three teams. Results: The senior management, administrative and technical departments were founded in each team. The Colorado RUSH team had less marketing strategies than the others. The Colorado RUSH team added more rest sessions in the training program for adapting the high altitude environment. The tactical strategy of Canberra United team emphasized the control of ground ball pass, and both the Colorado RUSH and Vancouver Whitecaps teams focused on full-court press and quick attack with long ball pass. The duration of pre-season in the three teams had approximately 3 to 4 weeks, and the microcycle of the in-season emphasized the physical training sessions and recovery/regeneration sessions. Conclusion: The Australia, United States and Canada have a place in the world women soccer, because of the development of soccer clubs and the competitive professional or semi-professional league. The coaches in the three teams are good at organizing training program and inspiring athletes to face the continuous and intensive competitions. The coaches designed the tactics and training program according to the athletic characteristics, and used the periodized and scientific training methods to help athletes to achieve peak performance.

Abstract:
This chapter charts the visit of the Australian football soccer team to South Vietnam in 1967 during the Vietnam War. It scrutinizes the claim made by former captain of the Australian soccer team Johnny Warren that the team was sent with the connivance of the Australian governance to provide a propaganda boost for the South Vietnamese government. The incomplete archival evidence does not substantiate Warren’s claim that the Australian government cynically sent the Australian team to Saigon to firm up the position of the South Vietnamese government. Despite his position in Australia, Warren has been influenced by American debates about the legacy of Vietnam. This fits a wider pattern whereby Australians have conflated the American experience of Vietnam with their own when coming to grips with Vietnam.

Abstract:
Global popularity of football (soccer) has led to implementation of scientific and technolog-ical knowledge in its everyday use. One of such things that has been expanding in recent years is the application of various technologies for monitoring running performance during trainings and matches. The aim of this study was to evaluate match running performance of professional football/soccer players during oficial matches by using global positioning sys-tem (GPS) technology, and to compare it among playing positions. One hundred and one match performance of “Hajduk” team in 14 matches of Croatian Football League season 2018/2019 were used for this study. The activities of the players were monitored using GPS technology (Catapult S5 and X4 devices, Melbourne, Australia) with a sampling frequency of 10 Hz. Total distance covered, distance in different speed cat-egories, total and high intensity accelerations and decelerations were analyzed for players in five different playing positions: central defenders (n=26), full-backs (n=24), midfielders (n=33), wingers (n=10), and forwards (n=8). Additionally, running performances were cor-related with InStat index, regular performance indicator which is calculated on the basis of unique set of key parameters for each position (12 to 14 factors). Average total distance covered during match was 10.3 km, with midfielders covering larg-est (11.1 km) and central backs covering smallest average distance (9.3 km). Playing po-sitions differed significantly in high intensity running (F-test = 21.97 and 18.84, p 25 km/h, respectively). The side positions (wingers and full-backs) covered highest-, while central defenders covered lowest-average distance (914, 775, and 376 m, respectively). The wingers had highest number of high intensity accelerations and decelerations (> 3 m/s2; F-test = 16.56 and 17.98, p 0.5 m/s2; F-test = 6.57, and 15.26, p < 0.01, respectively). InStat index was not correlated with data ob-tained by GPS measurement. Results from this study indicate that running demands differ depending on playing positions so these findings should be applied in creating training plan and program. Future studies should evaluate data from multiple teams for getting more applicable findings.
