[quote=Anonymous]I played football and ran track from middle school on. Skateboarding and BMX Freestyle created a disproportionate number of injuries!!! I played football with kids who started playing tackle as early as 3rd grade. They were the better players in middle school/early HS but by junior/senior year their bodies were burned out. Our star middle linebacker was on multiple knee surgeries by senior year. DS has specialized in soccer from u6 on. He ran track in 8th grade but that was it... We couldn't get him interested in other sports to any degree (other than futsal of course). I'll stop here- but he's on a good trajectory for some sort of soccer after high school. I agree with the "let them do what they want" theory... PP brings up great questions regarding the metrics in the study. Does an early specialist bring on more injuries because they push harder, earlier? [/quote]
