In a first-of-its-kind study, sports medicine specialist Dr. Neeru Jayanthi and colleagues found that injuredyoung athletes who play a single sport such as tennis spent much less time in free play and unorganized sports than uninjured athletes who play tennis and many other sports.?

Jayanthi presented his findings at the Society for Tennis Medicine and Science and United States Tennis Association-Tennis Medicine and Injury Conference in Atlanta.?There were 891 young athletes who were seen at Loyola University Health System and Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago clinics. Participants included 618 athletes who sought treatment for sports injuries and 273 uninjured athletes who came in for sports physicals.

?Study participants included 124 tennis players (74 of whom played tennis exclusively). The study has enrolled 891 athletes so far, and has received two grants from the American Medical Society for Sports Medicine.The study began as a project in a Loyola program called STAR (Student Training in Approaches to Research.??Among single-sport tennis players, the ones who suffered injuries spent 12.6 hours per week playing organized tennis and only 2.4 hours per week in free play and recreation.

?By comparison, the uninjured tennis players spent only 9.7 hours per week playing organized sports, and 4.3 hours a week in free play and recreation. the injured tennis players spent more than 5 times as much time playing organized tennis as they did in free play and recreation, while the uninjured players spent only 2.6 times as much time playing organized tennis as they did in free play and recreation.?There was found a similar ratio when he compared injured athletes who specialize in tennis with uninjured athletes who play other sports.

?The injured tennis players spent 5.3 times as much time playing organized tennis as they did in free play and recreation, while the uninjured athletes spent only 1.9 times as much time playing organized sports as they did in free play and recreation.?One way to avoid injuries in young athletes may be for them to simply spend more time in unorganized free play such as pick-up games, a Loyola University Medical Study has found.??




???This article really got me, because I used to play tennis, and I have to stop for my injuries.? I started playing when I was five, I loved it. The classes were active and entertaining and I had a lot of fun, and I had a lot of recreation playing, but when I turned 12 I started taking the competitions very seriously, and started training 4 times a week, that was 8 hours per week. When I turned 14 I got in the tennis camp for the summer and I literally played every day for 45 days 8 hours the day. When I got back home I wanted to be perfect, that created me a lot of frustration and stress, I played the whole day until 9 pm.This article links to my life because, well with so much intensive training, in the middle of a competition I got a horrible pain in my back turned out that I had scoliosis; I had an S shape on my column. I had to go to physiotherapy and swimming classes.?I?m not allowed to play anymore, this studies are true, If I had taken it slowly and actually playing for fun and not to win and be the best, I wouldn?t had get injured and I would still be able to play.?The area of interaction of this article is Health and Social Education because is a reaserch for young player injuries done by Society for Tennis Medicine and Science and United States Tennis Association-Tennis Medicine and Injury.?
