Considerations in child and adolescent athletes

(Überlegungen zum kindlichen und jugendlichen Sportler)

Excessive efforts to groom competitive and elite athletes from a very young age may expose children to significant external pressure to perform inappropriate training regimes, sometimes at the expense of their health and psychological well-being. It is essential for the physician to recognize the special physiologic, anatomic, and psychological issues of the child and adolescent athlete and to balance the benefits of appropriate participation in sports and exercise with the risks of physical and psychological injury.
