How do you calculate the perfect flight curve of a football? What type
of grass is used at football grounds and why? And how big is the
environmental impact of football events like the European Football
Championship?
Football offers a great variety of questions and issues for your STEM
classes: 20 teachers from 15 European countries developed twelve
teaching units, presenting interesting experiments around football for
biology, chemistry, computer sciences, maths and physics. From the
measurement of the mass of the air inside the ball, to the influence of
energy drinks on the performance of the players up to calculating the
chance of scoring during a penalty shoot-out the brochure contains a
broad spectrum of interdisciplinary challenges for secondary school
students. The various teaching units encourage them to discover the
natural scientific phenomena behind the popular game.
The brochure was supported by SAP and is the third volume of the ‘iStage’-series, following ‚
iStage 1 – Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in Science Teaching and,
iStage 2 – Smartphones in Science Teaching‘.
The release of the brochure coincides with the beginning of the
European Football Championship in France and the brochure can be
ordered free of charge in English and German as print publication
(info@science-on-stage.de) or downloaded as PDF from 2 June 2016.

Brussels. The brochure was developed by 20 teachers from 15 European
countries. In 12 teaching units the brochure shows how students can be
fascinated for STEM with exciting topics and questions round about the
popular sport ‘football': from the game itself to the biological and
health’ aspects of the players to the environmental issues when
