Have you ever wondered if some sports are too intense? I will be talking about how some sports are intense.
I claim that sports are too intense.
Why are sports too intense? Many injuries happen while playing sports and in fact, some sports are so intense that 2.6 million emergency room visits a year for those aged 5-24, 70%-80% are 15 years of age. My second reason is that kids by age 15, 80% of those kids quit because of zealous parents and coaches.
Many kids are demotivated because of parents, in fact, kids by age 15, 80% of those kids quit because of parents. In a longitudinal study which studied the activity levels in the same children at 9 years of age and then at 15 years of age, teenage girls fell short of the recommended daily 60 minutes of activity at an earlier age than did boys. This evidence is important to know if some sports are intense because if 80% of kids quit because of their parents, only a few of the 20% actually move on.
Many injuries happen while playing sports and in fact, some sports are so intense that 2.6 million emergency room visits a year for those aged 5-24, 70%-80% are 15 years of age. The evidence of this comes from many hospitals, and even from health.gov. If something like this comes from many different hospitals, that's how you know this is true. 70%-80% of 15 year old teenagers experience severe trauma and get dealt serious damage to their bodies.
I conclude that some sports are just way to intense. Many injuries happen while playing sports and in fact, some sports are so intense that 2.6 million emergency room visits a year for those aged 5-24, 70%-80% are 15 years of age. Also, kids by age 15, 80% of those kids quit their sports because of zealous parents and coaches. This is important for children and teenagers springing into adult-hood because, if kids have dealt with something crazy and they will never forget about it.
