Abstract:
ObjectivesTo determine (1) the prevalence of ankle osteoarthritis (OA) among former professional football and rugby players, (2) assess the association between ankle injuries or ankle surgeries with ankle OA, and (3) compare the mental and physical quality of life (QoL) between former professional football and rugby players with and without OA.MethodsWe conducted a questionnaire-based observational study with a cross-sectional design. Former professional football and rugby players were recruited by the Football Players Worldwide and the International Rugby Players. Information concerning ankle OA, sustained ankle injuries and ankle surgeries was gathered (medical record or most recent medical professional). Health-related QoL was assessed using the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) physical and mental health scores.ResultsOverall, 553 former professional football (n=401) and rugby (n=152) players were enrolled in the study (response rate of 56%). Ankle OA prevalence among former professional football and rugby players was 9.2% and 4.6%, respectively. Football players were more likely to suffer from ankle OA following every ankle injury and/or surgery. Football and rugby players with ankle OA had similar PROMIS physical and mental health scores to the norm for the general population.ConclusionFormer professional football and rugby players had higher ankle OA prevalence than the general population (3.4%). Football players are more likely to suffer from ankle OA following every ankle injury and/or surgery. No clinically relevant difference was seen for physical or mental health-related QoL among football and rugby players. Preventive measures for ankle injuries are recommended.

Abstract:
ObjectiveThe study examined the effects tackling style has on forces translated to the brain in football and rugby.BackgroundTackling is linked to concussion due to high or repetitive impact forces. A small number of NFL teams are incorporating the rugby tackle mechanics due to keeping the head out of the way. Rugby style tackle use is increasing in football.Design/MethodsA convenient sample of 30 male football and rugby participants from two universities participated in this observational study. 20 football participants (20 ± 1.61 YO, 71.63 ± 2.71 in, 210.84 ± 45.52 lbs.) had impact sensors placed in the helmet (CUE™ Sports Sensor, Athlete Intelligence, Kirkland, WA) and 10 rugby participants (20.22 ± 3.31 YO, 70.78 ± 2.11 in, 211.78 ± 40.62 lbs.) were fitted with an instrumented mouthguard (VECTOR™ Sports Sensor, Athlete Intelligence, Kirkland, WA) during their respective spring seasons. Participants practiced without intervention. Devices were returned to researchers after activity, and the data was uploaded. Welch’s ANOVA with a Games-Howell post-hoc analyzed the data with significance set at 0.05.ResultsFootball participants tallied 3921 impacts over the course of 12 practices, compared to 1868 impacts over 9 practices received by rugby participants. Welch’s ANOVA determined that there is a difference in the frequency of impacts between football and rugby participants (Welch’s F (1, 4119.84) = 29.41, p < 0.001). Football participants encountered linear impacts at 62.95 ± 36.57g. Rugby participants sustained impacts 20.59 ± 15.79g. The Welch’s ANOVA determined a difference in impact force between the football and rugby participants exists (Welch’s F (1, 5741.884) = 3780.385, p < 0.001).ConclusionsImpact frequency appears to be lower in rugby athletes than football athletes during spring ball. Also, the average impact force appears to be less in rugby athletes. The use of a rugby-style tackle generated lower impact forces in athletes when contact occurs.

Abstract:
Si le rugby fait son apparition en Corse de manière éphémère entre 1904 et 1924, il est d’abord pratiqué par des membres de la diaspora sur le continent. Les vrais débuts du rugby corse commencent au début des années 1960 mais sont entravés par la Fédération française de rugby (FFR) qui refuse de faire un effort financier pour aider les clubs insulaires à participer au championnat de France. À tel point qu’une grande partie des clubs corses décident de passer au XIII dont la fédération se montre beaucoup plus accueillante. La situation perdure jusqu’au milieu des années 1980 quand la FFR lance une opération séduction pour imposer le rugby comme sport identitaire de l’île y compris devant le football. Si des matchs internationaux sont même disputés en Corse, le projet n’a pas vraiment réussi.

Abstract:
Le rugby n’a eu sa Coupe du monde que 47 ans après le football. Ce retard signale une volonté de rester tout d’abord dans l’entre-soi des pays britanniques, puis du Commonwealth. Toutefois, afin de faire vivre les rugby unions, leurs dirigeants n’ont pas hésité à organiser des tournées rémunératrices soutenues notamment par les nations de l’hémisphère sud. Exclus du Tournoi des cinq nations au début des années 1930, les rugbymen français promeuvent un internationalisme sportif non exclusif. À partir du lendemain de la Seconde Guerre, les réticences nourries à l’égard du principe d’une Coupe du monde de rugby commencent à tomber du côté britannique. L’exemple du succès de la compétition mondiale de football fait finalement tomber les dernières oppositions dans la première moitié des années 1980.

Abstract:
Le rugby a représenté un aspect non-négligeable des relations franco-britanniques tout au long du vingtième siècle. Ces relations sportives n’ont pas été de tout repos et ont porté les préjugés construits depuis la fin du xviiie siècle par les guerres entre les deux nations. Dès les années 1910-1920, les rugby unions britanniques font valoir de nombreux griefs à l’égard du rugby français. Les rugbymen français seraient soumis à leurs passions, brutaux et, surtout, pratiqueraient de manière presque ouverte le professionnalisme. Ces accusations provoquent l’éviction du quinze de France du Tournoi des Cinq nations en 1931. L’une des conséquences de cette exclusion est le développement du rugby à XIII en France. Malgré le retour des Bleus dans le Tournoi en 1947, les préjugés ont la vie dure mais le dirigeant français René Crabos évite habilement une nouvelle rupture. Désormais, les relations franco-britanniques en matière de rugby sont caractérisées par le déni et le partage d’intérêts bien compris.

Abstract:
Cet article s’interroge sur l’oubli dont est victime la pratique du rugby dans la France de l’Ouest. Les recherches menées dans le cadre d’une thèse d’histoire montrent la présence de nombreuses équipes avant la Grande Guerre. La concurrence du football, les difficultés financières et l’éloignement contribuent à fragiliser et à provoquer la disparition de plusieurs clubs. Toutefois, le rugby se maintient dans certaines villes et reste un sport populaire. L’historiographie du rugby a le plus souvent délaissé cet espace considérant que ce sport n’y avait pas été implanté ou que la greffe britannique y avait échoué. Il s’agit également de comprendre les raisons de l’échec de la mémoire de la pratique du rugby dans la France de l’Ouest.

Abstract:
Dans les années 1930, les entraîneurs français ont joué un rôle important dans le développement du rugby italien avec notamment Julien Saby qui devient l’entraîneur des Amatori Milano et de l’équipe nationale. Les tensions internationales mettent fin à partir de 1938 à ce magistère qui reprend à partir des années 1950. Saby revient en Italie à Rovigo et forme de nombreux joueurs et entraîneurs italiens autour d’un rugby de conquête et de possession. Dans les années 1970, Pierre Villepreux devient un nouveau maestro d’oltrealpe autour d’un rugby de mouvement et de liberté. Saby comme Villepreux veulent ouvrir une voie italienne du rugby. D’autres entraîneurs français font fructifier leur héritage comme Georges Coste, Pierre Berbizier, Jacques Brunel même si l’Italie se tourne aussi vers des entraîneurs de l’hémisphère sud. Ils contribuent à la participation des Azzurri au Tournoi des Six Nation.

Abstract:
Depuis la première moitié du vingtième siècle, les dirigeants du rugby à XV ont cherché à empêcher l’essor du XIII en l’accusant d’être un faux rugby et de corrompre la jeunesse. Un discours différent des quinzistes britanniques qui sont passés d’un mépris de classe pour les rugbymen ouvriers à un pragmatisme attentif au caractère dynamique et novateur du rugby à XIII. Malgré son interdiction sous Vichy et la spoliation des biens de sa fédération, le XIII a eu ses heures de gloire notamment dans les années cinquante. Un certain nombre de spécialistes du jeu à quinze ont su reconnaître les qualités techniques des treizistes. Depuis vingt ans, l’évolution du rugby à XV vers un jeu plus dynamique et technique doit beaucoup à des techniciens venus du XIII comme Andy Farrell pour l’équipe d’Irlande et Shaun Edwards pour les Bleus.

Abstract:
Catalan rugby reached the high point of its young and successful history when became one of the founding nations of the International Amateur Rugby Federation (FIRA) and started competing at international level as an autonomous rugby nation. Towards the end 1921 rugby settled in Catalonia penetrating through sports such as football, athletics, boxing and swimming and owing much to French expatriates residing in Barcelona or Catalan citizens who had lived in France. In 1923 the Catalan Football Rugby Union was created due to the aroused need for organized competitions. With this institutionalisation and organisational structure began a flourishing period for the clubs, culminating in 1929 at the Barcelona International Exhibition where rugby was played in front of 60.000 spectators. In spite of this achievement, rugby remained a minority sport with restricted geographical appeal, with a group faithful and loyal followers.

Abstract:
The subject of this thesis is the diffusion of the game of football, tracing its development back to the more prestigious English public schools, through the Universities of Cambridge and Oxford and into adult society. Early club formation and the gradual nationalisation of the game throughout Britain, with particular reference to England and Scotland, is studied in detail. Careful examination is made of the initial meetings of the Football Association leading to the bifurcation of the sport into soccer and rugby. From that point the study concentrates on the Association form, looking especially at the emergence of professional players. The global diffusion of Association Football from the United Kingdom is also analysed. The underlying task of this study, however, is to test Eric Dunning's theory of status rivalry between the English public schools of Eton and Rugby, a rivalry which was partially expressed through the promotion of their particular styles of football.

Abstract:
The inception of rugby as a workforce in 1995 created a range of new issues surrounding sport as a vocation. With professional rugby often wearing the glamorous coat of fame and fortune, young athletes sacrifice education and learning additional life-skills in pursuit of well-paid contracts and glitzy lifestyles unaware of the realities rugby as a profession holds. One such reality is the relatively short lifespan of a professional rugby career and the fact that transition to a whole new career is firstly inevitable and secondly a very challenging process. Traditional retirement has been associated with the end of a long working career, making comprehensive lifestyle- and financial planning part of the preparation process. This process helps the retiree anticipate and understand the expected demands of life beyond a working career. In rugby however, the retirement experience of a player can be extremely difficult to cope with, especially if the player is not adequately prepared or has not planned for such an event. This leaves players vulnerable for the imminent new phase of life and often leads to physiological - and other challenges players are not able to withstand in a world outside sport (Price, 2007). The aim of this study is to identify the different aspects that influence a professional rugby player’s retirement – and transition experience into a new profession. The researcher believes that an increased understanding of how current and retired professional rugby players perceive/experienced the retirement process would assist current players to better plan and prepare for this phase of life. This ultimately would reduce the anxiety and uncertainty for life after rugby. If players are more relaxed and stress-free about their future, more focus could also be placed on the here-and-now, leading to greater performance on the current field of play. The views of both current and retired professional rugby players were captured through questionnaires distributed all around South Africa. The researcher utilised a mixed mode paradigm of both positivistic and interpretive research methods. This approach enabled him to best compare the views of the two groups and test the developed theories and hypothesis. Ultimately, the research revealed that the presence of the following variables will have a positive influence on a player’s retirement and transition experience: A) Leadership, advice and planning for retirement B) Tertiary education and additional work skills C) Popularity amongst fans and other influential people D) Sufficient wealth and E) A self-selected retirement. With these findings the researcher will develop some specific guidelines for current professional rugby players to help them firstly better prepare for their life beyond sport and secondly successfully switch to a new career. A few valuable recommendations were also made to other stakeholders to better assist and support players in their preparation and transition process.

Abstract:
Background: Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease linked to tau protein associated with recurrent brain trauma, clinically marked by mood, personality, cognitive and behavioral changes. Objectives: The objective of the study was to demonstrate whether athletes and military personnel can really be victims of CTE and to elucidate this same pathology. Design and setting: This is a systematic review, based on the PRISMA guidelines and a literature review with a summary of the evidence found. Methods: Articles were selected, published from 1934 to 2020, in PubMed and Scielo using the descriptors: “chronic traumatic encephalopathy”, “cerebral concussion”, “players”, “boxers”, “athletes” and “military”. Inclusion criteria were: studies available in English, Spanish and Portuguese published, with randomized clinical trial, cohort study or meta-analysis. Results: In 52 articles, 14 were selected for qualitative synthesis in the results table that addresses chronic traumatic encephalopathy in football, soccer and rugby players, boxers and the military. Neuropathologically, CTE is characterized by cerebral atrophy, a pelvic septum cavity with fenestrations, dense diffuse immunoreactive inclusions and a TDP-43 proteinopathy. Microscopically, there are extensive neurofibrillary tangles and spindle-shaped and filiform neurites throughout the brain. Conclusions: American football players, boxers and military men are more likely to trigger CTE, due to the constant mechanical shocks from their heads. The most frequent clinical manifestations were: headache, aggression, dementia, executive dysfunction and suicide. CTE is definitely diagnosed only at autopsy.

Abstract:
The article addresses the issue of regulating the manifestations of violence in sports at the international level, being proved the need to adopt the specialized legislation in the Republic of Moldova for the successful resolution of the contravention / criminal cases committed on this occasion. At present, sport fulfills a variety of functions, extremely useful from a social point of view, being largely focused on the competition between the participants. It should also be noted that each type of competition is based on aggression to some extent, which is especially noticeable in those sporting events where there is a direct confrontation of rivals (for example, football, judo, boxing, free wrestling, rugby etc.). Sport is the only form of activity in which violence is allowed "in a civilized way" in the contemporary world. Therefore, in order to understand the violence involved in sports, we must not only refer to the forms of interpersonal aggression on the sports field, but also to the mentality involved in the particular form that organized sport in contemporary society. Conflicts arise in all areas of social life, and many of them can turn into aggressive behaviors. The presence of aggression in these cases is confirmed by numerous rules that try to limit it to a minimum. However, sports are dominated by athletes whose aggressive behaviors are stimulated by the use of doping substances in sports competitions in order to obtain favorable and advantageous results. In this context, sports, athletes can generate certain concrete situations of manifestation of an inappropriate ethics reflected by: doping; pressure on the expected sports result; marketing - sport becomes a commodity; hooliganism manifested by fans and spectators of sports competitions; corruption and manipulation in sports; depersonalization of the athlete, which in fact becomes a commodity; politicization - sport becomes an instrument of political struggle; deviation from the principles of "fair play" in favor of pragmatism; racism; unethical behavior of sports champions, especially professionals; negative effects on the health of the performance athlete, even from an early age; frequent abuse of anabolic steroids among athletes, etc.
