Organized sports participation by children and teenagers is at an all-time high,” says Dr. Meehan.
“Approximately 38 million children and teenagers participate in organized sports.
The benefits of sports participation are numerous.
However, these benefits come with the risk of injuries.
Proper preparation for individual sports that involves injury prevention education and training is where parents, coaches and schools can make a difference.” The Micheli Center educates and trains athletes of all ages to minimize the risk of sports injuries.
The talk is open to the entire community.
