ABSTRACT:

The risks of overuse injuries in children or adolescent athletes are high for several reasons but mainly because the growing bones of young athletes simply cannot handle as much stress as the mature bones of adults. For example, a young Foot Ball player who has poor running mechanics is more at risk for injuries within the lower body or a young Softball pitcher who has not learned the proper throwing technique is at risk for elbow and shoulder injuries.
