Do players strike the ball with a particular location on their foot? Our new paper found impact location on the foot influenced energy transfer, ankle motion and ball flight path.

@robaughey @kevballkicking Did he introduce the conference as science and footy or science and football?

@James_Peacock1 putting forward a great presentation in the #ISBS2018 New Investigator Award semi finals. Maintain a firm ankle during impact to improve your punting performance.

Does foot-to-ball impact influence kicking accuracy? Our new paper identifies impact location between foot and ball, among others, as crucial for accuracy.

PLUS a new method to calculate impact location in 3d space

Unhappy with the inclusion of VAR at the FIFA World Cup? Slow motion replay (as used in VAR) results in higher accuracy scores for complex technical decisions.

Aerodynamic modelling of the 2018 FIFA World Cup ball (Adidas Telstar 18):
- Long kicks will be 9-10% shorter in distance than 2014 World Cup due to different aerodynamic properties of the ball.
- Knuckling effects are comparable.

Our latest article with the mechanical kicking machine, published in @sportsbiomechj. Useful information for coaches wanting to provide feedback on impact during the kick.

Does anyone have a copy of Arutyunyan, G. A, Gurfinkel, V. S., & Mirskii, M. L. (1968). Investigation of aiming at a target. Biophysics, 13, 536-538?
I have a copy , but it's not in English, and it's a scanned image so I can't attempt Google translate. TIA

Great new work by Nunome, et al. (https://t.co/Qxl4udL3Xj)
Different task demands (50%, 75%, 100% effort soccer kicking) influenced leg swing and foot-ball impact. Interesting that, while only one task constraint was manipulated, multiple components of technique changed.
