N2 - The field, the players, the ball that rolls: the becoming of a youth football match While many studies have focused on coordination and perception in fluid team sport, I aim in this presentation to contribute with insights from an ethnomethodology-inspired approach to real-world video recordings of youths playing football matches. Ethnomethodologically informed ethnographies of sport have typically studied the role of coaching (Corsby et al., 2024), demonstrations (Evans & Reynolds, 2016) or embodied instructions (Evans & Lindwall, 2020). I focus in this presentation on the question of the relationship between the ball, the field and the players as actual occasions (Whitehead, 1979). The ball is a quasi-object, as Serres tells us, and the ball might turn into a subject then (Michel, 2015). Against this stands EMCA studies that focus on interactions with objects (objects being objects and people being subjects) (Tuncer et al., 2019). I aim for a discussion of a new third way between this subject-object distinction. It has tentatively been called assemmethodology (Due, 2023). Data are from ethnographic studies of a Danish team, where an automated VEO camera recorded whole matches with an AI available that tracks the ball. Corsby, C. L.
