What is the Optimal Biomechanical Form Required to Maximize the Distance Reached for a Goal-Kick in Soccer
Major question The basis of this biomechanical report will be using soccer as our chosen sport for the biomechanical analysis. Therefore the aim and objective that was created for this blog focuses on the major question that will be analysed and reviewed through this blog report is, What is the Optimal Biomechanical Form Required to Maximise the Distance Reached for a Goal-Kick in Soccer? In soccer, a goal kick is achieved through the ball fully going over the goal after the opposition player touches the ball last. The play then proceeds with the goal keeper placing the ball on the front line of the “6-yard box”, who is then allowed to play the ball to anyone within the soccer pitch. Usually, most goal keepers will look to play the ball short to either their centre backs or defensive midfielders.
