A Dictionary Of Athletic Terms For Twelve Sports, Chris Lester Kjeldsen

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Every person who either participates in or witnesses an athletic activity acquires an interest in the definitions of the terms that have specific meaning in relation to that activity. In seeking definitions, the layman, the student, or the instructor naturally desires the simplest, most do noise, and the best understood definition at his disposal. It is with this idea in mind that I have endeavored to cover twelve sports.
