Abstract
In brief: More children are becoming intensely involved in competitive sports programs at younger ages. These children must cope with the psychological stress of competing as well as the physical stress of training during growth periods. A survey of the literature available on overuse injuries in children's sports showed few long-term studies on causes and prevention but isolated several factors that contribute to injury. Guidelines for people who direct youth sports programs emphasize adjustment of training to the child's physical and social development.
