Abstract
There would seem to be an honest difference of opinion among orthopedists on the hazards of epiphyseal injury related to Little League pitching, especially the throwing of curve balls.

The Joint Committee on Physical Fitness, Recreation, and Sports has been gratified by the willingness of officials of national organizations such as Little League Baseball and Pop Warner Boys Football to seek out and accept medical consultation in such areas as precompetition physical examination, protective equipment, and injury control.
