The South Yorkshire football club’s legendary journey to victory at the 1912 FA Cup Final is recounted in this illustrated history. In Lifting the Cup, Mark Metcalf and David Wood tell the story of Barnsley Football Club’s most illustrious period. Between 1910 and 1912 ‘Battling Barnsley’ won their way to the FA Cup Final on two separate occasions. They capped things off by beating West Bromwich Albion in the 1912 final replay at Bramall Lane, Sheffield. Barnsley manager Arthur Fairclough ‘lifted the Cup’ for the only time, so far, in the Club’s long history. This volume brings the 1910-12 era to life through match reports, memorabilia, and a wealth of dramatic photographs—some of which have never before been published. With a tribute to the extraordinary support of Barnsley fans, it also examines the careers of legendary players such as Dickie Downs, Bob Glendenning, Wilf Bartrop, Tommy Boyle, George Utley, George Lillycrop—and of course the goal-scoring hero of 1912: the great Harry Tufnell.Show book
The founders of the world-renowned VISION54 training program take golf instruction to the next level in this groundbreaking approach to mastering the game. Golf is a beloved yet technical game, so a sound swing and precise technique are essential. Most golfers who want to improve their skills go to the range and work painstakingly on their swings, not realizing it’s often their performance state on the course that needs work, not their technique. Simple things such as awareness of your balance, tension, and tempo, as well as the ability to control mental, emotional, and social variables you encounter while playing can quickly take your game to a new performance level. Pia Nilsson and Lynn Marriott, founders of VISION54’s groundbreaking and innovative golf program are here to help. Aimed at both the weekend golfer and the advanced player, each chapter presents a series of “human skills” —including assignments, explorations, and mini-lessons—that strip away the complexity surrounding swing technique and playing consistency—the conditional variations that plague golfers. Be A Player is the must-have book for any golfer who wants to unite technical skills and on-course performance seamlessly and effectively. With this cutting-edge text by your side, you will become a true student of VISION54 and a better player better on the course . . . where it matters most!Show book
