Campus Recreation Program Involvement, Athletic Identity, Transitional Loss And Life Satisfaction In Former High School Athletes, Katie E. Helms

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Sports participation can result in strong associations with the athlete role for participants. While strong athletic identity can have positive implications, it can also create vulnerability to emotional difficulty following exit from sport (Brewer, 1993). Exit from sport is inevitable, resulting from a wide range of sources such as injury, aging, de-selection, or not qualifying to participate at a certain skill level. Despite a large proportion of high school students who play sports, there is little opportunity for continuation at the college level. This discrepancy often results in significant transitional loss resulting from exhausted athletic eligibility. The current study examines …

Finesse In Javelin Throwing, Andreas Maheras

Track and Field Faculty Publications

The single most important factor for success in javelin throwing is the velocity at release. Indeed, a javelin thrower who has the capacity (conditioning) to produce higher velocities will eventually be able to put together a long throw. On the other hand, if that capacity is lacking, a long throw will be impossible to achieve. Therefore, the evaluation of the maximum release velocity is probably the best way to assess the maximum throwing potential of a javelin thrower for the near future. However, we should not expect that a high speed alone would result in a long throw. In cases …
