Abstract
In this work, we examine the basic problem of connecting a theory of the brain to the activities of humans engaged in the common pursuits of everyday life. This examination is explored through an implementation of a current dynamical theory, the KIII theory, which originates with Freeman [3, 4] and is advanced mathematically by Kozma. Our venue is a sports training program which is chosen for its accessibility to all researchers. In order to carry out this examination we must use a mathematical framework that serves the purpose of capturing the dynamics of the Freeman-Kozma model (Freeman, Neurodynamics: an exploration in mesoscopic brain dynamics, 2000, [4], Ilin and Kozma, Phys Lett A 360:66–83, 2006, [6]) and which can also be applied to the activities of a human enterprise.

Acknowledgments
While many students passed through our program over the years, we would like to acknowledge those who can be clearly identified with our program. To do this we confine our acknowledgments to those who were in the program at least two years; or, based their development directly on using the KIII Theory protocols; and, who are present in our program as of December 30, 2014.
