Introduction paragraph below…
90% of student athletes have reported some sort of sports related injury during high school. 54% of student athletes have reported that they have played while injured. High school athletes have accounted for an estimated 2 million injuries, 500 thousand doctor visits, and 30 thousand hospitalizations annually. Wouldn’t you want to play high school sports safely without risk of life long injury instead of risking your body for a sport? Although sports has become safer for highschool students, there are too many students that become injured which affects their physical and mental health long term. Therefore, schools must provide the proper gear and treatment to stop all these injuries. For some of the student athletes, the psychological response to an injury can trigger or reveal serious mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, eating disorder, and even substance use or abuse.
