Reuters (29 May 2017) 若い女性アスリートの怪我の発症率は、過小評価されている恐れがあります。
Injury rates in young female athletes may be underestimatedInjury rates among elite young female athletes may be higher than what’s been reported, newdata suggest.
“Most studies define injury as time loss from participation, whereas many athletes withoveruse injuries continue to participate despite pain and reduced performance. When timeloss definitions are used, about 90 percent of overuse injuries appear to be missed,”
researchers write in the journal BMJ Open Sport and Exercise Medicine.
Angelo Richardson of Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences in The Netherlands andcolleagues studied 60 young women who competed at the national or international level insoccer, basketball or gymnastics. The average age of the study participants was 17.
Every two weeks during the 2014-2015 season, the athletes filled out questionnaires that
asked about health problems, including not just new injuries but also overuse injuries, which
occur over time as a result of repeated stresses on tissues, bones and joints.
Overall, at any given time during the study, 48 percent of the athletes reported injuries, theauthors found. And every two weeks, nearly 61 percent of the athletes were reporting some
sort of health problem - either injury or illness.

Women's Nordic Combined Continental Cup approved by FIS
Approval for a women's Nordic Combined Continental Cup has been granted by theInternational Ski Federation (FIS) following their Calendar Conference in Portoroz, Slovenia.
The green light came following a presentation by the Nordic Combined Committee, where therules for the tour were finalised and the calendar agreed.
Otepää in Estonia will host the first Continental Cup of the inaugural season at the beginningof January 2018, with the event coinciding with a men's World Cup event.
It will be followed by a competition later that month in Høydalsmo, Norway, before a shared
three-event finals with the men in Nizhny Tagil, Russia.
There is currently no senior Nordic Combined World Cup for women, nor is it an Olympic
discipline.
A Junior World Championship test event is set to be held next year in Kandersteg,
Switzerland, however.
Female Nordic Combined Youth Cup competitions also took place for the first time last year.

The FIS said women’s competition will feature one jump and a five kilometre cross-country ski.

Yoshida welcomes addition of women's ski jumping team event
Chika Yoshida, the International Ski Federation's (FIS) race director for women's ski jumping,has hailed the decision to introduce a World Cup team event next season.
Team competitions have been a regular fixture on the men's circuit, but up until now, female
jumpers have only been able to compete individually.
In the 2017-18 campaign, women's team competitions will be held in Zao in Japan and
Hinterzarten in Germany.
Japan's Yoshida believes the move - confirmed at the FIS Calendar Conference in Slovenia
last week - will lead to an increased talent pool.

World Heart Federation launch #Matchfitwoman
The World Heart Federation is partnering with UEFA, the Royal Dutch Football Associationand the Healthy Stadia network to promote heart health and fight against cardio vasculardisease ahead of UEFA Women’s EURO 2017.
Under the theme ‘A healthy Heart Your Goal’, activities are taking place in the Netherlands
and across Europe to encourage children, women and all fans to lead an active, healthy
lifestyle and take up sports such as football.

Heart disease and stroke is the number one killer of women in Europe. New research in four
European countries reveals that three quarters of women are doing less than therecommended level of activity. There is no lack of willingness to exercise as 72% of womenquestioned would like to be more active, but they quote embarrassment about their lack offitness (31%), being too busy (42%) and worries about the cost of exercise (36%) as some of
the reasons for not exercising more.
To help reverse this trend, the World Heart Federation encourage women across Europe tojoin the #MatchFitWoman 28 days challenge: improving their heart health by setting goals to
get active for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week until the Women’s EURO kicks off on 16th
July.

World Health Organization - Europe (19 June 2017)
New WHO Collaborating Centre for Physical Activity and Health
WHO recently designated the University of Zurich (Switzerland) as the new WHO
Collaborating Centre for Physical Activity and Health. The Physical Activity and Health Unit
and other groups of the Epidemiology, Biostatistics and Prevention Institute (EBPI) will support
the implementation of the Physical activity strategy for the WHO European Region 2016–2025.
A lack of physical activity increases the risk of developing cardiovascular and respiratory
diseases as well as diabetes and cancer. In Switzerland alone, insufficient physical activity is
responsible for at least 325 000 cases of disease and 1200 premature deaths per year. This
leads to annual direct treatment costs of more than 1 billion Swiss francs.
The Physical Activity and Health Unit at the EBPI has been focusing intensively on the healthconsequences of inadequate physical activity. Their research has garnered internationalrecognition, leading to WHO designating the Unit as the new WHO Collaborating Centre.
......................................................................................................................................................
The research group will identify particularly promising national approaches for promoting
physical activity, and collaborate with alliances and WHO networks. HEPA Europe, theEuropean network for the promotion of health-enhancing physical activity, with over 160
member institutions from 36 countries, will be a strong partner in this regard. The group will
also develop guidance for relevant topics within the scope of the Physical activity strategy,
which will be supplemented by meetings of experts.

Blog: Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority (ASADA) – Level 1 Anti-doping ELearning course. A free online anti-doping course everyone should do...........ASADA (The Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority) is an Australian Government
statutory authority tasked to eliminate sports doping and to protect Australia’s Sporting
integrity. ASADA works with National Sporting Organisations to implement its policies, andhas now created a free course to help educate the public. It is not only athletes who need tounderstand these policies. All support staff are required to not only understand, but to also
follow anti-doping regulations. Support staff have a major role over not only what athletes areeating and drinking, but what supplements and medications are being taken.
Doping infringements are very serious with ineligibility periods ranging from 1-4 years. A
sanction means that you are banned from competing in any sport sanctioned by a National
Federation, coaching, working in sport and even training with your team. As anti-doping
guidelines are constantly changing, so it is imperative that all of the athlete’s network areaware of not only what is allowed or prohibited, but also how to check these substances
before the athlete uses them.

The ASADA Level 1 anti-doping course is a free e-learning initiative designed to educate
athletes, support staff and the public. Although this course is for an Australian audience,the content is universal. The home page for the course is designed around the “Australian
National Training Centre” with eight destinations to visit, representative of eight sections tocomplete. To participate in the course, the participant navigates through each of these
destinations is a module where a different anti-doping topic is explored with information,
videos, examples and revision questions. The final destination is the main stadium where a
final quiz on all topics is to be completed. The course takes around 60-80 minutes tocomplete, and progress is saved automatically. You do not need to complete the course in
one sitting.

Metabolic syndrome: An hour of resistance training per week may cut risk
Exercise is known to prevent or treat metabolic syndrome, which is a group of healthconditions that raise the risk of heart problems and type 2 diabetes. Now, a new study
suggests that less than 1 hour per week of resistance training, even without aerobic exercise,
can be of benefit.

Lead author Esmée Bakker, of Radboud University Medical Center in Nijmegen in the
Netherlands, and colleagues report their findings in the journal Mayo Clinic Proceedings.
Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of health risk factors that make it more likely that a person willdevelop type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases such as heart disease and stroke.

High-intensity exercise may be bad for the bowels: Hydration and proper food intake
might help prevent gut trouble, researcher says
FRIDAY, June 16, 2017 (HealthDay News) -- When it comes to stomach discomfort during
exercise, forget that old adage "no pain, no gain." New research suggests that excessive
strenuous exercise may lead to gut damage.
"The stress response of prolonged vigorous exercise shuts down gut function," said leadauthor Ricardo Costa.
"The redistribution of blood flow away from the gut and towards working muscles creates gut
cell injury that may lead to cell death, leaky gut, and systemic immune responses due tointestinal bacteria entering general circulation," Costa added. He's a senior researcher withthe department of nutrition, dietetics and food at Monash University in Australia.
Researchers observed that the risk of gut injury and impaired function seems to increase
along with the intensity and duration of exercise.
The problem is dubbed "exercise-induced gastrointestinal syndrome." The researchers
reviewed eight previously done studies that looked at this issue.

マンスの違いについての運動学分析 Stefani.R

Athens Journal of Sport, June 2017. Kinesiology Analysis of Athletics at the Ancient
Olympics and of Performance Differences Between Male and Female Olympic
Champions at the Modern Games in Running, Swimming and Rowing. Stefani, R
Kinesiology and physics were employed to better understand the performance of male andfemale athletes in the Ancient and in the Modern Olympic Games. In what we now call theAncient Olympics (actually the Pan-Hellenic Games at Olympia), then open only to men,athletes competing in the long jump (part of the pentathlon) carried 1.5-3 kg weights called
halteres. By training today’s athletes, we have learned that by coordinating the backward andforward thrusting of those weights, about 5% in distance can be gained. In the javelin (alsopart of the pentathlon) a cord wound around the javelin unwrapped as the javelin was thrown,
providing spin stabilization. Performance enhancing drugs were legal at the Ancient Olympics.
When women competed in the Heraea Games at Olympia, they ran 5/6 (83%) as far as men,which was the female/male performance ratio of 1928 Olympic champions when women
resumed athletics competition. Regarding the Modern Olympics, for running, swimming androwing, using physics and kinesiology, equations for the velocity ratios of female/male elite
athletes were derived and then populated with parameters from studies of over 2000 athletes.
Assuming equal training and efficiency, the female/male ratio for running velocity simplifies tothe relative female/male lean-to-weight ratio; while for swimming and rowing, the velocity ratio

10becomes the 8/9th power of the relative lean-to-weight ratio, a remarkable similarity. For the
average of Olympic champions in two time frames from 1980 until the present, the actual
velocity ratios of about 90% are within tenths of a percent of the expected values, except for
running where women have a 1% inefficiency due to longer-than men stride length (relative toheight) induced by hip-height geometry. That extra 1% of wear strongly suggests that female
athletes should strengthen knee joints to reduce the tendency of females to have six times thelikelihood of ACL ligament tears as men.

Getting girls active: Reducing gender inequality in physical activity. Policy Report
11/2017. Dr Simon Sebire, Professor Russ Jago, Kate Banfield and Professor Angie
Page, University of Bristol, June 2017 (4 pages)
Girls are less active than boys at all ages. English girls are among some of the least active inthe world, with only 16% of girls meeting UK physical activity guidelines of 60 minutes ofmoderate-to-vigorous intensity activity each day. This means that most girls miss out on theimportant social and health benefits of regular physical activity.
Research suggests that the changes girls experience during the transition from primary to
secondary school (in perceived competence, friendship groups and peer support) may
contribute to this decline.
A recent review suggests that previous attempts to help girls to be more active have had little
effect and more novel approaches are needed. This evidence, alongside the Government’s
recent Childhood Obesity Strategy, means that it is crucial that physical activity (in particular
girls’ activity) is pushed up the policy agenda.
This report presents new research evidence from the University of Bristol’s Centre for
Exercise, Nutrition & Health Sciences that can be used to support work on a local and national
level to ensure that girls can be and stay active throughout childhood and adolescence. The
evidence supporting this policy briefing draws on projects that used quantitative cohort andintervention studies as well as qualitative interviews and focus groups.

Key findings:xx

Yoga, and the Tai-chi like movements of Baduanjin-qigong, provided strong evidence of
their effectiveness at reducing feelings of anxiety, depression, and anger, while improving
attention spans and how the young people reported their overall wellbeing.
Empowering young girls through peer-supported exercise has a positive effect on theirself-belief.

Aerobic and hip-hop dance can lead to greater increases in happiness compared to otheractivities like ice-skating or body conditioning.
Taking part in ‘exer-gaming’ programmes, like Wii Fit, in groups can help encourage
overweight young people to participate in physical activity and make friends.

地下の緑地スペースの介入と健康：影響と有効性の調査

Urban green space interventions and health: A review of impacts and effectiveness.
World Health Organization - Europe, June 2017 (202 pages)
There is a wide range of international agreements and commitments to enhance and support
the establishment of green spaces in urban settings, as these are considered to provide a
range of benefits to the urban population. Yet, little is known on the most effective ways todeliver urban interventions on green spaces, and how to make sure that the environmental,social and health benefits are maximized. To respond to this question, this new WHO reportprovides the results of an evidence review and an assessment of local case studies on urban
green space interventions.
The findings show that interventions to increase or improve urban green space can deliver
positive health, social and environmental outcomes for all population groups, particularly
among lower socioeconomic status groups. Yet, there is a need for better inclusion of healthand equity outcomes in studies on green space interventions, and an improved monitoring of
local green space management and related health and equity impacts.
Local experiences and urban practice suggest that multidisciplinary planning, cross-sectoralcollaborations and community engagement in the planning process are essential to ensurethat urban green space interventions deliver on multiple outcomes and provide a variety offunctional opportunities that attract different population groups. Urban green spaceinterventions seem to be most effective when a physical improvement to the green space iscoupled with a social engagement/participation element to promotes the green spaces andreach out to new target groups.

Grinham and Duncalf become first openly gay professional squash players
Rachel Grinham and Jenny Duncalf have become the first active professional squash players
to "openly identify" as gay after publicising their relationship in a bid to make others "morecomfortable in their own skin".
Grinham, the 2007 world champion from Australia, and England's 2011 World Championshipfinallist Duncalf, have been a couple for several years.
They have travelled together to events in which they have played either alongside or against
each other.

Their relationship has long been known within the professional game but the duo believe that,by openly "coming out" they can help others embrace their sexuality, especially withinprofessional sport.
Duncalf moved to Brisbane in 2015 to live with Grinham.

Casey Dellacqua responds to Margaret Court criticism with love for her 'normal' family
Australian tennis star Casey Dellacqua is poised to strike the ultimate blow in the fight forsame-sex acceptance, but has one simple message for Margaret Court.
"It's just normal," Dellacqua said after closing in on a symbolic doubles double at the French
Open in Paris.
Dellacqua and Fed Cup team-mate Ashleigh Barty on Monday advanced to the quarter-finalsof the women's doubles at Roland Garros before the West Australian teamed with American
Rajeev Ram to make the semis of the mixed.
Enjoying widespread locker-room support after calling out Court for her vocal opposition tosame-sex marriage on the eve of the clay-court grand slam, Dellacqua winning either event
would be seen as a major statement of defiance after Court enraged players with her claimthat "tennis is full of lesbians".
But Dellacqua — who has two young children with partner Amanda Judd — insisted she had
nothing to prove to Court, except that she is a regular human being too.

Contraceptive pill's effect on female athlete's performance put to test in new study
Exactly how the female contraceptive pill affects an athlete's performance is the focus of a
new study by Griffith University on the Gold Coast.
Associate Professor Clare Minahan said the pill changes female physiology by increasing awoman's core body temperature and alters her ability to regulate heat.
Ms Minahan said that could affect an athlete's ability to stay hydrated while competing.

"By taking a combined pill, that is one that contains both synthetic oestrogen andprogesterone, it raises the core body temperature just at rest by about a third of a degree,"she said.

Could the future of sports coaching in India ever be female?
#GenderAnd Culture: Why have we failed to have women taking executive decisions in Indian
sport?
A quick web search for women coaches throws up more search results for train coaches
rather than women sports coaches. “This, in a country, where it is only women who managed
to make their names in Olympics,” says Sunil Dabas, the only woman coach to be given a
Padma Shri in India, ever.
The founder of Olympics games in 1896, Pierre de Coubertin described women’s sport as ‘themost unaesthetic sight human eyes could contemplate’ and advised that some of thedisciplines be reserved for women, though a few females were allowed to compete from 1900.
According to a 2016 report, almost half of National Olympic Committees surveyed by the IOC
have fewer than 20 per cent of women on their Executive Boards, including ten nations who
had no women at all.
In Indian sports association governing bodies, women constitute between two per cent andeight per cent. Hockey India, with 34 per cent female representation, is the only exception.

Our latest research Good Sports, highlights the disparity between male and female volunteer
roles, perceptions, motivators and barriers in sport. The research was led by Dr Leanne
Norman from the Carnegie School of Sport at Leeds Beckett University and funded by SportEngland.

Sports organisations and groups attract the most volunteers in society, with 54% of all formal
volunteers involved in sport[1]. However, data reveals that men are more than twice as likely(30%) to volunteer in sport than women (14%)[2].
The Good Sports research looks to further understand what motivates women to engage involunteering and what benefits and challenges women face in the sport sector. 54 volunteers
were interviewed from a range of sports and from sports clubs, parkrun and non-sports

Blog: Women in leadership roles ブログ：女性のリーダーシップの役割について
Last year, Daisy Narayanan, Sustrans Scotland’s Deputy Director, Built Environment wasseconded to ‘act up’ in the role of Scotland Director. She shares her reflections on her time as
Acting Director, and on women in leadership roles.

"Last August, John Lauder, Sustrans Scotland National Director, was seconded to work with
Xavier Brice, our Chief Executive, on the Sustrans five-year strategy.
During this time, I enjoyed new responsibilities in my capacity as Acting Director, gaining a
deeper insight into the ‘bigger picture’ policy and political context, as well as the nuanced
world of influencing.
It has been a whirlwind of positive new experiences, at times pushing me out of my comfortzone.
I was asked towards the end of last year to write a blog about how it felt to be a ‘woman
leader’. I struggled with the label – what does one mean by ‘woman leader’? Would theSustrans Scotland National Director John lauder or our Chief Executive Xavier Brice, forexample, describe themselves as ‘men leaders’?
Over the past few months, I have had interesting conversations with friends, colleagues, peers
and mentors on leadership.
More specifically, conversations that have revolved around the role of ‘woman leaders’ in
traditionally male-dominated sectors and whether we do enough to speak out about our own
personal experiences and challenges.
These conversations have led me to reflect on my own journey, which started as a young
graduate architect in India in the late ‘90s, to leading urban design teams in London and
Edinburgh. Every so often, I would come up against reminders that I was ‘the other’, a woman
in a perceived man’s world.

Women's sport proves the best buy for business: Men's sport does not offer the samevalue for money to potential sponsors
For players and spectators it’s fast and skilful; for sponsors it’s now competitive value ofmoney. Everyone’s a winner, it seems, when it comes to women’s sport.
After years of struggling for recognition, FA Women’s Cup is to receive sponsorship worth
millions of pounds from the energy firm SSE, guaranteeing the final at Wembley for the next
four years and providing proof of a cultural shift in perceptions about women’s sport.

19

And the deal announced last week follows news of other recent partnerships between theSouth Korean car firm Kia and women’s cricket, the banking group Investec and women’s
hockey, and Microsoft and the Women’s Sport Trust.
The sponsorship of the women’s Boat Race earlier this year by management firm Newton wasseen as so groundbreaking that Clare Balding missed the Grand National to commentate,
despite her brother training one of the favourites.
Women’s sport hasn’t always been this blessed. When sport was first organised
professionally, over a century ago, there was a view that women’s athletic activities should be
confined to sex and waitressing. Baron de Coubertin, founder of the modern Olympic
movement, thought girls should just “stand about with garlands”.
As recently as last autumn, three days after Marlie Packer had been crowned a Women’s
Rugby World Cup champion in the victorious England team, she was back at work as aplumber. But in the background, nothing less than a social revolution has been taking place.

Titled: Supporting Women in Coaching, the video is set to inspire and encourage more women
to think about getting into coaching.
Currently there is a lack of gender diversity in sports coaching with two thirds of all sports
coaches being men and only 17% of qualified coaches being women. The main routes of entry
into coaching are through participation but with fewer women regularly participating in sport(31.9% of women as opposed to 40.5% of men), there are fewer women transitioning fromplaying into coaching, and therefore fewer role models for other women and girls to seecoaching as an opportunity for them.

On the eve of ICC Women’s World Cup 2017, a nationally-representative Kantar TNS surveyof children aged 8-16 found that 44% of girls played cricket to some extent in the past year,
the vast majority of whom played at school (36% of all girls). At the same time, almost onethird of girls say they have no opportunity to play in school, and many say that they want more
opportunity and encouragement to play the game.
The nationally-representative Kantar TNS survey of 1,002 state-educated children aged 8-16

them to take part in gymnastics but without the hours of commitment required if training morecompetitively, which makes it easier to fit it into their lives.
MY CLUB is also proving popular. MY CLUB gives gymnasts complete control of their
sessions, giving them the opportunity to choose the skills they want to learn or want to workon whether it’s mastering a backflip or getting together to create a show-stopping gymnastics

Women's Sport Week 2017: Gender prize money gap narrowing, new study shows
The gender prize money gap in sport is closing with more sports than ever achieving parity at
the top level, a BBC Sport study has found.
A total of 83% of sports now reward men and women equally, according to the study
commissioned for Women's Sport Week.
Cricket, golf and football showed some of the biggest disparities although prize money for
women has increased substantially in these sports over the past three years.
Other sports that do not reward male and female competitors equally according to the study
are cliff diving, ski jumping and cycling events. Women are allowed to enter the world
championships in darts and snooker but also have their own separate competitions, whereprize money is a lot less.
Full table - prize money in sport
It is the second time BBC Sport has carried out the global study, for which 68 sports'
governing bodies were contacted with 55 responding. The first one was in 2014. That study
showed 30% of sports rewarded men better than women.
The 2017 study, which looked at prize money for world championships and events of anequivalent standard only, does not include wages, bonuses or sponsorship. It found that 44
sports pay prize money, of which 35 pay equally.
