6 Things Young Multi-Sport Athletes Should Do
Share This :
The term multi-sport athlete gets thrown around a lot these days. But unfortunately, its meaning has changed. Multi-sport used to mean an athlete would play various sports when they were in season, but seasons no longer exist in youth sports for most of us anyway. The multi-sport athlete has given way to the simultaneous sport athlete.
Being a simultaneous sport athlete isn’t recommended by most doctors, pediatricians, or athletic trainers. It often can lead to injury and burnout. But because it’s become so widespread, there is a need to understand the best practices for youth sports parents to manage this new trend and educate your child and yourself to keep your athlete as healthy and safe as possible.
