Tips to Protect Your Kansas City Child Athlete from Serious Injury

As school begins, Fall and Winters sports seasons will be kicking into full swing, which means over 35 million kids will be participating in one or more athletic activities. Many of these child athletes are dedicated to success in their respective sports, so much that they are willing to "play through the pain". This is clearly not the best way to push our student athletes, many of whom are vulnerable to serious injuries because they are over-exerting their bodies.

Suburban Journals out of St. Louis, Missouri offers some tips to make sure your child doesn't incur permanent injuries by playing through too much pain:

• Encourage your child to participate in sports at his or her own level of ability and interest.

• Be sure your child receives proper conditioning and training before participating in any sport.

• Do not encourage your child to "play through the pain."

• Be sure your young athlete eats properly and receives an adequate amount of rest.

• Do not increase your child's training time by more than 10 percent a week.

• For younger children, it is healthier to enroll them in a variety of sports, using different body parts and developing different skills.

• If your young athlete does sustain an injury, be sure he or she heals completely before returning to the playing field.
