Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women's involvement in sport has skyrocketed over the past thirty years, and the number of competitive elite female athletes is on the rise. Between 1972 and 1992, women's participation in the Olympic Games increased by 130 percent. The number of team sports offered for collegiate athletes has increased from slightly over 2 per school in 1972 to 8.32 teams in 2004. With this increase in the number of elite female athletes participating in sports it is important to explore what factors contribute to their talent development. The purpose of this study was to investigate the four factors of lived body, lived time, lived space and lived relations further by developing and administering a survey to elite female track and field athletes at the collegiate level. The study sought to reach a better understanding of how outside commitments, access to particular services/facilities and teammate roles affect athletic talent development. The survey instrument was drafted based on the conceptual foundations established in Burton's (2002) qualitative research, current literature on the topic and consultation of experts in the field. The survey instrument was tested for validity and reliability using a sample population of track and field athletes. The refined survey was distributed to elite female track and field athletes at twenty-six of the top Division I track and field programs. An elite level was assigned to each participant based on her track and field achievements. Based on the elite female track and field population in this sample, outside commitments do not have an effect on the athletes' development or performance. Access to facilities and services was important to all the athletes, regardless of elite level. Teammates were viewed as supporters, motivators and training partners by the athlete at all three elite levels, with the role of training partner considered to be the most important role. The small sample size made it difficult to complete in-depth statistical analy.

Book excerpt: The popular text that helped readers better understand and practice qualitative research has been completely updated and revised. To help readers better visualize and grasp the concepts, issues, and complexities of qualitative inquiry, the authors introduce each chapter with discussions among three 'characters'--students whose research projects demonstrate the challenges and excitement of qualitative research. Woven into the chapters and the characters' stories are three themes that make up the tapestry of qualitative research: First, research is a learning process. Second, research can and should be useful. Finally, a researcher needs to have a clear vision of the audience and purpose of a study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Swimming is primarily an individual endeavor, yet certain accomplishments, even by some of the most illustrious names in the sport, can only be fully appreciated when considered alongside the contributions of their teammates. After all, Michael Phelps would never have earned a record eight gold medals in the 2008 Olympics were it not for his teammates’ world record-setting efforts in the 400 freestyle relay. In Pooling Talent: Swimming’s Greatest Teams, Matthew De George highlights the top relay teams, squads, and programs in the history of competitive swimming. Each chapter describes in detail the history surrounding the team, the crucial races, and the key swimmers. Part I examines relay teams—such as the 1976 U.S. Women’s 400 Freestyle, the 2000 Australian Men’s Freestyle, and the 2004 U.S. Men’s Medley—showcasing how four opponents in the individual events can mesh seamlessly into a team. Part II explores the national squads, spanning from the 1924 U.S. Olympians to the 2001 World’s Australians, revealing the interplay between team and individual success. In Part III, the top developmental programs around the world are featured, including the 1930 Japanese Men’s program and the North Baltimore Aquatic Club. Together, the relay teams, squads, and programs provide constant motivation, pushing individuals to achieve much more than they ever could in isolation. Extensively researched and rich in detail, Pooling Talent takes a novel look at swimming accomplishments old and new, casting the accolades of individuals in a fresh light. Fans, coaches, athletes, and researchers alike will find this a unique and refreshing history of swimming’s greatest teams.

This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last decade witnessed a plethora of literature about talent identification and talent development. Most of the research is descriptive. In addition, an enormous quantity of publications attempted to define normative guidelines, but mostly with relatively little empirical evidence to support them. We believe it is time to overview the field, critically appraise the situation of research, and map the topics, trends, and gaps. The large part of recent research has focused on talent identification and the factors that reveal talents. In contrast, relatively less research has addressed the question how young talents develop in a long-term process towards becoming senior high-performers. This is an evolving field and research is still in a primarily explorative stage. A variety of different study designs and methodological approaches have been employed to explore different factors and outcomes of talent development, yielding heterogeneous findings.
