R497 Discovery Miles 4 970 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The passionate, poignant, and triumphant story of two-time Olympic gold medal-winning beach volleyball icon Misty May-Treanor.
More than any Olympics in history, the 2008 Beijing Summer Games captured the world's imagination, and Misty May-Treanor became one of the biggest U.S. stars on the global stage. Now she shares the story of her life and remarkable athletic career.
Destined for beach volleyball superstardom, having been raised on famed Muscle Beach in Santa Monica, California, Misty talks about the personal and professional challenges she has faced and the life lessons she has learned in the process. From growing up with two driven, competitive, accomplished athlete parents and living in a volatile household rocked for years by their alcoholism to the heartbreaking death of her mother from cancer, Misty reveals intimate details never before publicly discussed. She tells behind-the-scenes stories about her eight-year climb to the top of beach volleyball with partners Holly McPeak and Kerri Walsh; her career-threatening injuries; her role on ABC's hit television show "Dancing with the Stars"; and of course, her historic two Olympic gold medals and the special rewards they've brought.
Offering an unprecedented glimpse into the life of a cherished celebrity sports icon and an ambassador for women's athletics, "Misty "will touch, inspire, and empower readers everywhere.

R380 Discovery Miles 3 800 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This is Tom's second book and illustrates his bizarre, humorous and emotional ten-year journey in the world of club volleyball. Tom's three daughters participated in this roller-coaster environment for several different club teams. When Tom says, "Lunatic Rantings of a Volleyball Dad," he is not kidding. He loses his composure many times in the book and relates stories that are not normally discussed in polite conversation. He humorously takes on everyone who is associated with club volleyball: The players The coaches The volleyball officials The volleyball club rules Volleyball traditions The parents His wife Himself This book is for everyone. The young athletes will enjoy the book as much as the adults. The craziness found in club volleyball is probably relatable to all club sport teams. Enjoy! Tom's favorite volleyball cheer is, "Mirror, mirror on the wall, pretty girls don't play volleyball so let's get ugly." I think Tom has taken "ugliness" to a whole new level.

The Harper College women's volleyball team had a terrific record last year. In general, the same players were on the team this year as the year before. However, the prior year, with a different coaching staff and philosophies, the team record was only 3 wins and 18 losses. This year, the team ended up rated the 4th best team in the nation.

In volleyball, as with any sport, there are certain philosophies that work better than others. Sometimes, better talent with poorer philosophies can overcome worse talent with a good system. But this was a situation where we generally followed the philosophies and marched toward the success at the end of the tunnel.

This book is about those philosophies, and illustrates the points by showing where Harper College's players performed against those philosophies.

Players and coaches alike will become a better volleyball player or coach by reading this book.

This book first describes the physical profile of elite young tennis players focusing on the Inertial Movement Analysis patterns. In Inertial Movement Analysis, wearable microsensor technology is used to improve the knowledge about activity patterns such as accelerations, decelerations, jumps and changes of direction. Following this, the authors review the prevalence and risk factors of low back pain in tennis players and discuss the optimal rehabilitation program, focusing on non-operated adolescent/adult tennis players. A methodology for creating educational training programs in volleyball is examined. Algorithmic methodological steps of educational training programs, models and methods that were used in their creation and control, and the calculation and analysis of their effects and changes in volleyball are presented. The game pattern of the 2008 and 2012 Olympic women's volleyball finals between the USA and Brazil is assessed through data obtained from an observational video analysis of the Olympic finals in Beijing and London. Studies on game analysis in volleyball are discussed which identify that the points generated through the fundamentals of attack, block and serve are decisive for a team to achieve victory in high performance volleyball. Thus, the objective of this study was identify the factors that determine victory in high-performance men's volleyball. In the conceptual aspect, the authors discuss the theoretical assumptions of sociology of sport and historical-critical pedagogy, aiming to understand volleyball's history and basic fundamentals. In closing, the relationship between athletes, parents, and coaches is discussed in detail, depending on each individual's expectations and how these expectations influence the self-confidence of volleyball players.
