Stadium 974 – Qatar WC2022

Posted on by domagoj@winsunited

?Stadium 974, which was constructed from 974 shipping containers and represents the nation’s international dialing code, will now be demolished following the hosting of the final game planned there on Monday, between Brazil and South Korea

?It is only going to be dismantled to bring it back to life again, albeit, in another location. The stadium is going to be donated to countries that couldn’t afford to build their own stadiums.

?It is the first-ever FIFA compliant stadium that can be fully dismantled and re-purposed post-event. This includes the ability to build numerous smaller stadiums out of the same materials or to rebuild the stadium in a different site with the same seating capacity.

?Interestingly, this is the only stadium in use for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 without air conditioning. It is naturally ventilated and doesn’t need one.

?The stadium is referred to as Qatar’s beacon of sustainability. Stadium 974 highlights the sustainable and legacy aspects of Qatar 2022.

NFL – The world’s most profitable sports league

Posted on by domagoj@winsunited

?The NFL is the world’s most profitable sports league, bringing in an expected $20 billion in revenue this year alone.

?But tackle football participation is on a decline of over 40% over the past few years.

?The physical style of play is attractive but has its consequences. Over 300 NFL players have been diagnosed with Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CET) and the league have had to pay nearly $1 billion in concussion settlements.

? So how is the NFL tackling this? ?? The answer is flag football. Flag football is a variant of American football where, instead of tackling players to the ground, the defensive team must remove a flag or flag belt from the ball carrier to end a down ??The NFL is now investing millions in flag football each year. – It is less physical and safer – It is easier to play – It is cheaper – It has more chances of going global

? NFL is slowly pushing for an Olympic charter with flag football as they intend to reach 50mn international fans.

What do you make of this move?
