Every time the FIFA world cup comes around, there is a flurry of research into football. This may be aerodynamics, shoe traction or impact mechanics. To capture the research conducted surrounding the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, journal Sports Engineering is planning a special issue on association football.
If you have some research which you think would be at home in the journal please see the flyer or contact the associate editors Simon Choppin (s.choppin@shu.ac.uk) or Tom Allen (t.allen@shu.ac.uk).
