About Table Tennis Ball

Table Tennis ball shall be spherical in shape with a diameter of 40mm. The ball shall weigh 2.7 grams. The ball shall be made of celluloid or similar plastics material and shall be white or orange and matt. The international rules specify that the game is played with a sphere having a mass of 2.7 grams (0.095 Oz) and a diameter of 40 mm (1.57 in). The rules say that the ball shall bounce up 24–26 cm (9.4–10.2 in) when dropped from a height of 30.5 cm (12.0 in) onto a standard steel block thereby having a  coefficient of restitution  of 0.89 to 0.92. The choice of ball color is made according to the table color and its surroundings. For example, a white ball is easier to see on a green or blue table than it is on a grey table. Manufacturers often indicate the quality of the ball with a star rating system, usually from one to three, three being the highest grade. As this system is not standard across manufacturers, the only way a ball may be used in official competition is up

Volleyball, The World of Sports

Volleyball is one of the most successful and popular competitive and recreational sports in the world. It is fast, it is exciting and the action is explosive. Yet volleyball com­prises several crucial overlapping elements whose complimentary interactions render it unique amongst rally games. The ball shall be spherical, made of a flexible leather or synthetic leather case with a bladder inside made of rubber or a similar material. Its colour may be a uniform light colour, or a combination of colours. Synthetic leather material and colour combinations of balls used in Inter­national Official competitions should comply with FIVB standards. Circumference of ball shall be 65-67 cm and its weight shall be 260-280 g. Inside Pressure shall be 0.30 to 0.325 kg/cm2 (4.26 to 4.61 psi) (294.3 to 318.82 mbar or hPa). All balls used in a match must have the same standards regarding circum­ference, weight, pressure, type, colour, etc.

About Tennis Racket

Image
Tennis Racket is generally made of different types of Materials. Most commonly used materials are Graphite, Aluminum, Boron and Kevlar or the Wood. The vast majority of rackets manufactured today use graphite in one form or another as the base ingredient. Graphite is the technological generation’s equivalent of the trusty laminated wooden racket that was so popular until about the 1970s. Graphite is remarkably strong for its relative light weight. It provides terrific power, as well as good control and feel for the ball. But graphite is best in a composite mixture with any of the various thermoplastic and Fiberglass type resins used today. Boron and Kevlar are the two fibers resemble graphite, but boron and Kevlar are even lighter and stiffer than graphite. These materials are strong, enabling you to hit with a lot of power. But unless they are mixed with other materials, their stiffness can transmit a lot of shock and vibration to your arm and shoulder, especially if you don’t

All About of Hockey Stick

Table Tennis Bat Sports

A basic table tennis racket (has notions of being called a " paddle " or "bat") is used by  table tennis  players. The table tennis racket is usually made from laminated wood covered with rubber on one or two sides depending on the player's grip. Unlike a conventional " racket ", it does not include strings strung across an open frame. The racket may be of any size, shape or weight but the blade shall be flat and rigid. At least 85% of the blade by thickness shall be of natural wood; an adhesive layer within the blade may be reinforced with fibrous material such as carbon fibre, glass fibre or compressed paper, but shall not be thicker than 7.5% of the total thickness or 0.35mm, whichever is the smaller. A side of the blade used for striking the ball shall be covered with either ordinary pimpled rubber, with pimples outwards having a total thickness including adhesive of not more than 2.0mm, or sandwich rubber, with pimples inwards or outwa

Football shall not weigh more than 450 g (16 oz) and not less than 410 g (14 oz) at the start of the match. Pressure in the ball shall be equal to 0.6 – 1.1 atmosphere (600 – 1,100 g/cm2) at sea level (8.5 lbs/sq in – 15.6 lbs/sq in). Always Remember: If the ball bursts or becomes defective during the course of a match, then the match is stopped and shall be restarted by dropping the replacement ball at the place where the original ball became defective, unless play was stopped inside the goal area, in which case the referee drops the replacement ball on the goal area line parallel to the goal line at the point nearest to where the original ball was located when play was stopped.

Introduction of Basketball

Basketball is a  spherical  inflated  ball  used in  basketball sport . Basketballs typically range in size from very small promotional items only a few inches in diameter to extra-large balls nearly a foot in diameter used in training exercises. Basketball in high school would be about 27 inches in circumference, while an NBA ball would be about 29 inches. The actual standard size of a basketball in the  NBA is 29.5 inches in  circumference Nearly all basketballs have an inflatable inner  rubber  bladder, generally wrapped in layers of fiber and then covered with a surface made either from  leather  (traditional), rubber, or a synthetic composite. As in most inflatable balls, there is a small opening that allows the pressure to be increased or decreased. The surface of the ball is nearly always divided by "ribs" that are recessed below the surface of the ball in a variety of configurations and are generally a contrasting  color . An orange surface with  black
