Bryan Singer directs this blockbuster superhero sequel based on the
characters from the Marvel comic strip. With a storyline that
alternates between the past and present, the film acts as a direct
sequel to three separate films, 'X-Men: The Last Stand' (2006),
'X-Men: First Class' (2011) and 'The Wolverine' (2013). When the
survivors of the battle in 'X-Men: The Last Stand', led by Magneto
(Ian McKellen), Professor X (Patrick Stewart) and Storm (Halle
Berry), discover that total annihilation now awaits humans and
mutants alike, they send the ageless Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) back

Wolverine must team up with the younger incarnations of the X-Men
seen in 'X-Men: First Class', Charles Xavier (James McAvoy),
Magneto (Michael Fassbender) and Mystique (Jennifer Lawrence), to
avert disaster. Will he succeed?

Being the parent of a young athlete is a complex and challenging
endeavour. Parents play a pivotal role in the development of young
people in reaching their full potential in sport - indeed, the
psychological and practical support of parents can be as vital to
young athletes as the appropriate coaching and facilities. This
book brings together current research into the impact of parenting
in youth sport and examines the relationships between athletes,
coaches and parents, whilst also discussing topics such as
parenting styles, behaviour at competition and talent development.
This book not only outlines the theories of parenting in youth
sport, but also utilises research and examples from several
countries, including the UK, US, Canada, and Australia. It has a
research-to-practice theme and includes numerous suggestions for
research projects (and getting research published). Parenting in
Youth Sport is an essential text for students, lecturers and
practitioners with an interest in youth sport, sport psychology or
sport development.

Sport and physical activity should now be understood as lifelong
activity, beginning in childhood, and accessible to participants of
all levels of ability. This book offers an overview of some of the
core concerns underlying lifelong engagement in sport and physical
activity, encompassing every age and phase of engagement. The book
explores key models of engagement from around the world, as well as
specific areas of research that will help the reader understand
this important topic.
In adopting a lifespan approach, the book pays particular
attention to sport and physical activity during childhood and
adolescence as well as transitions into adulthood, the
developmental periods when participation in sport and physical
activity are most likely to decline. Understanding more about
participation during these early years is important for sustaining
participation during adulthood. The book also addresses issues
relating to sport and physical activity during adulthood, across a
range of different populations, while a final section examines
sport and physical activity among older adults, an often
overlooked, but growing segment of society in this context.
Lifelong Engagement in Sport and Physical Activity is important
reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students in teacher
education, sport and coaching science, and for health promoters,
coaches, teachers and relevant bodies and organizations in sport
and education.

All four movies from the action film series directed by George
Miller. 'Mad Max' (1979), set sometime after an apocalyptic war,
depicts a world in which the police have their hands full fighting
roving motorcycle gangs. When the wife and child of cop Max (Mel
Gibson) are murdered by one of the gangs, he sets out to get
revenge. In 'Mad Max 2' (1981), following the road-side slaughter
of his family, ex-cop Max roams the post-apocalyptic landscape
alone. Reluctantly taking a pit-stop at a desert-set fortress, Max
is gradually persuaded to help protect the people inside it and the
commodity that makes it a prime target for marauding gangs - fuel.
In 'Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome' (1985) Max, arriving in Bartertown
in search of some stolen property, has to fight a duel in the
Thunderdome arena. He is exiled to the desert by Bartertown's
ruler, Auntie (Tina Turner), where he is rescued by a community of
feral children. In 'Mad Max: Fury Road' (2015) Max (Tom Hardy) has
been captured by a gang, led by the tyrannical Immortan Joe (Hugh
Keays-Byrne). In order to escape Max teams up with Imperator
Furiosa (Charlize Theron), a woman who wants to travel across the
desert and find her way back home. But, after liberating five
female captives from Joe's clutches, she too must escape from the
crazy gang leader and his henchmen. Can they make it across the
desert in one piece?

Triple bill of hard-hitting British dramas written by and starring
Noel Clarke. 'Kidulthood' (2006) follows a group of troubled
15-year-olds as they are given the day off school after a girl in
their class commits suicide. Spending the day wandering the streets

tormentors head-on if he is to move on with his life, Peel seeks
