Abstract: Traditionally, evaluation of individual player performances in one-day cricket and T -20 has been based on measures such as batting and bowling averages, and strike and economy rates. Whenever a player's performance statistics are quoted, there is nearly always some verbal qualification that is necessary in order to place the statistics into context. We have found a new statistical measure –FORM, which measures the form of a player. We have used what is known as an exponentially decaying average (EDMA). In this statistic, every score is considered in the calculation, but as you go back in time, each score is discounted by a certain percentage. This means recent score is given highest importance and past scores are given less weightage. Simple logic of short term EDMA and long term EDMA is used for calculating FORM. FORM of individual players is vital as the success of the team depends on the number of players who are in form. It can be used to estimate the total team score.

Abstract: The purpose of this research is to describe and diagnose Iran Sport For All status and to design a model. The population of the research includes: Sport For All Federation managers, its strategic Council members, its sub sport Associations and Sport For All provinces Units. TO benefit the experts and authorities' point of view effectively, a questionnaire within the framework of the federation strategic plan content was designed and sent to the target population including: different federations and associations managers, the provinces sports units and the federation strategic Council members. A five –level Likert scale (strongly agree /agree/ neutral/ disagree/ strongly disagree) was designed. After Investigating and analyzing the results; regarding a Pathological view and approach; Sport For All strong & weak points, treats and opportunities (SWOT) were recognized. Then considering the proportion of Sport For All processes role to the other sports and its relationship with procurement, management and processing control components and culture & religious values, Iran Sport For All development model was designed noticing sport management scientific structure, processing structure and its relationship with other sports and macro management circles for macro policy-making, planning and procurement & executive levels.

Abstract: Aim: This study aims to examine the effects of oral coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) on preventing the accumulation of lactic acid developing during the exercise performances of endurance skiing athletes. Materials and Methods: The study population was composed of 15 volunteering male athletes. The blood samples thus collected were utilized for the measurement of athletes’ CoQ10, lactate, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine phosphokinase (CPK), heart rate and blood pressure. Results: Significant decreases were identified in the systolic and diastolic blood pressures, pulses and plasma lactate levels of the athletes in the trial group when their pre- and post-exercise results were compared (p<0,01; p<0,001) while an increase of p<0,01 was observed in their plasma CoQ10 levels. However, plasma LDH and CPK levels of the trial group athletes using 100 and 200 mg CoQ10 were observed to increase less when compared to the results of the control group athletes in seven days (p<0,001; p<0,01). Conclusion: regular and gradual exercise is considered to enhance physical performance depending on the usage of CoQ10 while it decreases the accumulation of La and thus delays fatigue.
