I am in a public speaking class and we had to choose a topic for the semester to talk about, obviously my first choice was cheerleading but I had to think about it in a way that I wouldn't be so biased so I decided to make my subject a little broader. After doing some research and also just through what I have seen throughout the years, as childhood sports get more competitive it seems that as the level of competition increases, so does the number of injuries. Is there a point where childhood sports are simply too competitive? When does the amount of time missed from school, the injuries occur, and even the financial burden just become to excessive. In other words when is enough enough in the world of youth sports?
