The format is easy to use and complete with a detailed table of contents and index.

Entries under color-coded categories such as racket, equestrian, ball, nautical, and motor, cover the rules of the game, scorekeeping, and technological and equipment changes over time. Court/playing surfaces, sizes and types, the correct form and training regimens of elite athletes, safety equipment, history, and the responsibilities of the umpire or referee are also discussed.

Whatever your sport, you'll find it in this excellent book and you'll enjoy learning something new., True sports fans know the rules to their favorite games and they will scream or even throw things at a TV set if they think a bad call has been made. But even these die-hard aficionados can't be familiar with the rules for every sport played around the world. This illustrated encyclopedia details more than 100 sports, including all the Olympic competitions as well as motor sports, rock climbing and in-line skating. For each sport there are diagrams, photographs and drawings showing the technique, practice location, tactics, equipment, modifications and other details (such as a typical training schedule). While many fans may not need this reference volume for their favorite sport, this book would enhance almost anyone's viewing of the Olympics, where there are so many events with different rules. Intriguing details and descriptions abound. For example, there is a sport known as apnea freediving. In this event, divers first perform special respiratory exercises in order to take in as much oxygen as possible. Then, the divers hold their breath before descending to the designated depth and then resurfacing. Other interesting facts: handball originated in Egypt and was later played by the Romans. Leonardo da Vinci recognized the principle of parachuting, but the first parachute fall was not recorded until 1797. The illustrations are excellent; the step-by-step figures of the different techniques and routines enable readers to perfectly visualize the moves as if they were watching someone perform in front of them., This book is perfect both for open-minded young people who have yet to decide on their sport of choice., A valuable classroom resource. Coaches will find it helpful. All sports fans will find it interesting and exciting. Highly recommended.
