Discovery Famous football coach, Tony Dungy, is consistently a man of honor and strength throughout his book “Quiet Strength”. His book is a memoir of his life which captures his discovery of what it means to be a Godly leader and how to live it out both on and off the field. With his son 's tragic suicide, and media fiascos with players, Tony discovers that listening to God and who he has put in our lives will give him peace and wisdom.

This paper studies the evolution of football equipment and how each piece of equipment has changed the game. It begins with a discussion of the origins of American football and its storied history.

It continues by looking at the ways the NFL is attempting to make football safer for its players.

Young boys go full force in everything they do, and football is no exception. Most boys will start playing at age five, beginning the blows to the head that continue each year they participate in the sport. Young boys do not realize that concussions each year are greatly detrimental to their developing brain. Playing tackle football before the age of twelve can lead to negative cognitive effects and memory decline later in life. Playing tackle football has an overall negative effect on the cognitive and memory aspects of the adult brain; therefore, the age of players needs to be increased above the age of twelve years old.
The five biomechanical principles selected for the mechanical analysis of a football punt are power, torque, momentum, work, and center of gravity (center of mass). These biomechanical principles all make a connection to the movement of a football punt. The power, which is the rate of doing work and amount of energy consumed per unit of time is what allows the participant to have a force in the action. The participant needs energy to be able to complete the punt. Torque, which is the twisting force that tends to cause rotation would be the participant’s hip.
In American Football, quarterbacks throw the ball on the major axis, spirally to pass the ball to a person in a long distance. The quarterbacks increase precision and accuracy as they throw spiral because of two reasons. As the ball rotates until it reaches to the receiver, the ball is able to go through the air, instead of going against and blocks wind, which means that it stops wind from affecting it better than it being thrown in normal ways. The ball can experience this due to the moment of inertia occurring from the rotating motion. As the quarterback throws the ball spirally, he or she gives the ball spin about an axis that makes a small angle with the long symmetry axis of the ball.
Concussions and countless injuries don 't sound very fun, however contact sports involve much more than just injuries and people hurting each other. Contact sports are the building blocks of a true gentleman since they benefit in every single aspect of maturity. Many experts agree that the benefits of being active and being involved in contact sports outweigh the risks of possible injury. These are values of Teamwork, Respect, Enjoyment, Discipline and Sportsmanship which are eventually what makes the game special for those who enjoy the environment and culture they create. They define the game.
Physics in Football Someone might think that throwing a football only involves a person’s strength. Throwing a football seems like it is a very simple action, but in reality it is very complex. A football has pointed ends to help it cut through the air. When you are throwing a football you adjust how hard you throw it based on how fast the wind is blowing or how far away your target is. You think of these things without even noticing, these things are physics.
It really matters about your ankle , it plays the role of where in the field you want to kick it or pass it to. The ankle is one of the most important thing of how you kick a ball.

RELATION BETWEEN PHYSICS AND SPORTS Introduction: When people think about sports and athletics, the subject of physics doesn’t always comes to their mind. But the influence of physics is found in every aspect of the sport. Physics is simple as a bouncing of a ball or complex as a roller coaster. Each single movement in a sport contains a great deal of physics. Every sport consumes multiple of physics principles.
