Este estudo tem como objetivo descrever como ocorreu a trajetória da modalidade hóquei sobre a grama e indoor no estado do Rio Grande do Sul com base nas ações realizadas no primeiro mandato da Federação de Hóquei sobre a Grama e Indoor do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul (FHERS) entre os anos 2010 e 2014. Esta pesquisa histórico-documental foi feita por meio de revisão bibliográfica e pela análise de documentos e de fontes orais. Foram realizadas seis entrevistas com fundadores e dirigentes do primeiro e segundo mandatos da FHERS. As fontes revelaram que a trajetória da modalidade no estado está vinculada a clubes, escolas, projetos sociais e universidades. Estas instituições foram o alicerce para o desenvolvimento de cursos, oficinas, workshops, vivências e para a realização de atividades permanentes, tais como a prática nas aulas de educação física e em projetos de extensão (escolar e universitário), a criação da disciplina eletiva da modalidade na Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) e a realização de festivais e campeonatos da modalidade. Em razão de o Brasil sediar os Jogos Pan-Americanos e os Jogos Olímpicos, a FHERS encontrou um ambiente propício para a implantação desse esporte no território sul-rio-grandense, visto que estavam disponíveis recursos financeiros tanto da esfera nacional quanto estadual, além da visibilidade dada ao esporte devido a esses megaeventos. / The study describes how the historical trajectory of the sport Field Hockey and Indoor Hockey occurred in the state of Rio Grande do Sul through the actions accomplished in the first mandate of the Rio Grande do Sul State Field Hockey and Indoor Hockey Federation (FHERS) between 2010 and 2014. The historical documentary research was carried out through literature review, document analysis and oral sources. Six interviews were conducted with founders and leaders of the first and second mandate of FHERS. The sources revealed that the history of the sport in the state is linked to clubs, schools, social projects and Universities, which were the foundation for the development of courses, workshops, field work and the performance of ongoing activities, such as the practice in Physical Education classes and extension projects (school and University level), the creation of the elective subject at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) and the organization of festivals and championships. The FHERS found a favorable environment for the implementation of the sport in the Rio Grande do Sul State territory due to the incentive available in the national and state level as the resources and visibility given to the sport due of the Pan American and Olympic Games.

Title: Comparison of effectiveness of advertising expenses during broadcasts of main hockey events Objectives: The main goal of this dissertation is to compare the amount of money invested into the commercial advertisement during sport broadcasts at the ČT sport channel with viewer ratings. The used metric is a coefficient computed as a ratio between the viewer rating of the particular broadcast and the corresponding advertisement cost, normalized using Cost per Thousand method. Another goal to find out how much TV viewers are able to associate a hockey event with the name of advertiser is by the questionnaire. The final goal is to evaluate the type of event which is the most convenient for the advertiser from the point of view of the advertising price, viewer ratings and memorizing the viewer.

I ishockey krävs det snabba beslut och lyckade aktioner för att kunna vinna matcher. Därför är det viktigt att kunna genomföra skanningar för att kunna genomföra aktioner på ett bra sätt. Att skanna innebär att man vrider på huvudet eller kroppen från pucken för att få en uppfattning om var mot- och medspelare befinner sig. Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur skanningsbeteendet predicerar prestationen samt hur skanningsfrekvensen skiljer sig åt mellan olika aktioner bland spelare i Svenska Damhockeyligan (SDHL). Genom att analysera verkliga matcher i SDHL så visas elitspelare i sin naturliga prestationsmiljö. Analysen har gjorts med hjälp av analysprogrammet Dartfish där 10 matcher med tre olika lag valdes ut för analys, 3393 sekvenser analyserades varav 1747 användes för att nå fram till vårt resultat. Resultatet påvisar att skanning ger förbättrat odds att lyckas med nästkommande aktion. Vidare tyder studien på att skanningsfrekvensen var högre vid aktioner som på något sätt förde spelet framåt i banan, dessa aktioner var passning direkt till spelare, passning fri yta och fri yta. Studien visade också att vid skott och täckning av puck var skanningsfrekvens lägre än vid de tidigare nämnda aktionerna dock hade skott statistiskt signifikant högre skanningsfrekvens än täckning av puck. För aktionen styrning fanns ingen statistisk signifikant skillnad. Föreliggande studie vill förmedla hur viktigt skanning kan vara i ishockey, hur skanning kan ge en fördel till det puckförande laget. / Ice hockey demands quick calls and successful actions to be able to win games. It is therefore important to scan the environment to make good actions. To scan means that you turn your head or your body away from the puck to get an idea of where the opponents and your team-mates are located. The purpose of this study is to examine how visual scanning behavior can prejudice performance and how the frequency of scanning differs between different actions amongst players in the Swedish women hockey league (SDHL). By analyzing real games in SDHL we get to see the elite players in their natural performance environment. The analysis was conducted in the program dartfish where we gathered 10 games with three different teams. 3393 sequences was analyzed which led to that 1747 was used to get our result.The result shows that scanning creates improved odds in making the next performance successful. Further the study shows that scanning frequency was higher when the idea of the action was to move the game towards the offensive zone, these actions was passing directly to a player, passing to an open space and moving yourself with the puck to an open space. The study also showed that when shooting and covering the puck the scanning frequency was lower than those actions before, though shooting had statistically significant higher scanning frequency than covering the puck. The action deflection was shown to not be statistically significant.With this study we want to mediate how important scanning behavior is in ice hockey and how scanning can give the puck carrying team an advantage. / <p>Föreliggande studie har framställts i samarbete med Anton Josefsson.

Aim The purpose of this study is to investigate whether plyometric training improves ice hockey goalies' change of direction (COD) at junior level on-ice. The study is based on the following question: Does the COD of ice hockey goalies improve after an eight-week training intervention consisting of plyometric training?Null hypothesis: Plyometric training does not improve COD for junior ice hockey goaltenders. Method The questions in the study were by conducting a training study with male ice hockey goalies (n=13) at the junior level (born 2004-2008). Based on randomization, the participants in the study were be divided into two groups, a training group (n-7) and a control group (n-6). Before and after the training intervention, an on-ice test will be carried out by all participants. After that, the intervention group will perform plyometric training, twice per week during an eight-week period. The effect of the training intervention will be evaluated by comparing the groups' results (before and after the intervention) to investigate whether there are differences between the intervention and control groups.  Result The results showed that the training group's mean value (3.82 seconds) improved more than the control group's mean value (4.03 seconds), however, the difference between the groups was not statistically significant (p=0.05), thus the null hypothesis is retained in the study. The results show that there is a tendency for improvement (p=0.082), thus a low assumption of the null hypothesis. The significance level was set at p &lt;0.05 and the tendency level values were set at 0.05&lt;p&lt;0.1. Conclusion There was a tendency towards improvement in COD for the training group, however, the differences between the training group and the control group were not significant at post-test. The results show that plyometric training tends to have a positive effect on COD, which can be used as a framework for players and coaches as well as useful as a basis for future training planning for ice hockey goalies at junior level. / Syfte Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka om plyometrisk träning förbättra rishockeymålvakters change of direction (COD) på juniornivå on-ice. Studien utgår ifrånföljande frågeställning: Förbättras ishockeymålvakters COD efter en åtta veckorsträningsintervention bestående av plyometrisk träning? Nollhypotes; Plyometrisk träning förbättrar inte COD för ishockeymålvakter på juniornivå. Metod Frågeställningarna i studien besvarades genom att en träningsstudie genomfördes med manliga ishockeymålvakter (n=13) på juniornivå (födda 2004–2008). Utifrån randomiseringkommer deltagarna i studien delas in i två grupper, en träningsgrupp (n-7) och en kontrollgrupp (n-6). Innan och efter träningsinterventionen kommer ett on-ice test genomförasav samtliga deltagare. Därefter kommer träningsgruppen genomföra plyometrisk träning, två gånger per vecka under en åttaveckorsperiod. Effekten av träningsinterventionen kommer attutvärderas genom att jämföra gruppernas resultat (före och efter interventionen) för att undersöka eventuella skillnader mellan tränings-, och kontrollgruppen. Resultat Resultaten visade att träningsgruppens medelvärde (3,82 sekunder) förbättrades mer än kontrollgruppens medelvärde (4,03 sekunder), dock var skillnaden mellan grupperna inte statistisk signifikant (p=0,05). Resultaten visar att det finns tendens till förbättring (p=0,082),d ärmed ett lågt antagande om nollhypotesen. Signifikants nivån sattes till p &lt;0,05 och värdenaför tendensnivån sattes till 0,05&lt;p &lt;0,1. Slutsats Det fanns tendens till förbättring av COD för träningsgruppen, dock var skillnaderna mellanträningsgruppen och kontrollgruppen inte statistiskt signifikanta vid eftertestet. Resultatenvisar att plyometrisk träning har tendens till positiv påverkan på COD, vilket kan användassom ett ramverk för spelare och tränare samt vara användbara som grund i framtida träningsplanering för ishockeymålvakter på juniornivå.

Ce mémoire est consacré au discours véhiculé dans les médias de masse pendant le lock-out de la Ligue nationale de hockey (LNH) 2004-2005. La première hypothèse soutient l'idée qu'en déclenchant le lock-out, la LNH avait un agenda caché, plus précisément, qu'elle ne voulait pas que la saison 2004-2005 ait lieu afin qu'elle puisse restructurer ses activités pendant la période d'inactivité. Cette hypothèse est confirmée. De son côté, la deuxième hypothèse avance que pendant le processus de négociation, les médias n'ont pas su renseigner le public sur les idées sur lesquelles travaillaient les deux parties (Association des joueurs (AJLNH) et LNH) pendant la négociation de la convention collective. Celle-ci est infirmée. Ainsi, tant sur le plan théorique que pratique, cette recherche permet d'avoir un aperçu de la complexité de la question des interactions entre les journalistes et les sources quant au contrôle de la production du discours véhiculé dans les médias.

Submitted in partial compliance with the requirements for the Master’s Degree in Technology: Chiropractic,Durban University of Technology, 2014. / Background The Functional Movement Screen (FMSTM) is a pre-participation screen consisting of seven tests that rate a player’s functional movement. The screen may be used as an indicator for injury susceptibility in sports people. This may be implemented for preventative measures and improving or sustaining performance in sport. Objectives This research aimed to identify normative values on the FMSTM for female premier league hockey players and assess the association between FMSTM scores and incidence of seasonal injuries. Secondary to this, the research also undertook to assess dependence of the FMSTM on other risk factors identified in the study such as age, number of years playing hockey, height, weight, BMI and position. These risk measures were also tested for association to injury susceptibility. Method The research evaluated the FMSTM score in female premier league hockey players in KwaZulu-Natal prior to the commencement of the competitive season and then tracked the incidence, frequency and distribution of injuries that were sustained during the season. All nine teams in the KwaZulu-Natal female premier hockey league were approached and the players voluntarily participated provided that they fitted the inclusion criteria. In total 74 players between the ages of 18 and 35 were assessed. SPSS version 20 was used in the data analysis to test for statistical significance of the results. Results and conclusions The research sample revealed a mean FMSTM score of 14.39 with a standard deviation of 2.4. The difference in average FMSTM score between the 18 players who sustained non-contact injuries during the course of the season and the 56 players who did not was shown to not be statistically significant at a 95% confidence level. Therefore, this research shows that no association can be made between a low score on the Functional Movement ScreenTM and injury susceptibility. The FMSTM score was shown to be an independent metric when compared to the other injury risk measures identified in the study and the other risk measures were also found to not reliably indicate injury susceptibility. Having said this, the association of weight, FMSTM and BMI with injury susceptibility warrants further investigation as these measures indicated a degree of association. / M

Québec, le soir du 30 octobre 1995. Le peuple québécois s'apprête à se prononcer pour une deuxième fois en moins de vingt ans sur son avenir politique au sein de la Confédération canadienne. Émotif et dramatique jusqu'à la toute fin, le référendum se solde par un échec serré au niveau du décompte électoral, mais il démontre à quel point le nationalisme québécois n'a pas reculé dans l'esprit des gens. L'année 1995 marque également la fin d'une autre période forte de l'histoire du Québec. L'annonce de la vente des Nordiques à des intérêts américains et le départ de la concession vers le Colorado vient mettre fin à une véritable saga entre les deux principales villes de la province. Décision liée à la nouvelle réalité économique de la LNH, la perte des Nordiques affecte bien plus que les citoyens de la capitale nationale. Les Québécois viennent de perdre une partie de leur patrimoine culturelle. C'est que la rivalité Canadiens-Nordiques a divisé pendant plus de quinze ans les familles québécoises, qui se réunissaient pour l'occasion à la Grande messe du hockey du samedi soir. L'attachement profond des Québécois à l'une ou l'autre des équipes va bien plus loin que la partisannerie sportive à proprement parler. La rivalité sportive Montréal-Québec s'insère dans une période charnière du nationalisme québécois. Faisant le pont entre les deux référendums, elle se substitue aux luttes politiques et constitutionnelles de la décennie 1980, pour devenir l'un des principaux exutoires de la fierté nationale québécoise de l'époque. À n'en point douter, cette rivalité a marqué profondément le Québec et les Québécois. Mis à part les cris, les huées, les bagarres et les buts, que se cache-t-il derrière la mythique rivalité Canadiens-Nordiques des années 80-90?
