Playing sports is a great way to stay physically active, bond with teammates, work towards a goal and have fun. In fact, more teens and young adults participate in some sort of high school sports in Texas than any other state. It really is an American way of life.

But playing sports also means risking injury, since the games can be physically demanding (especially physical contact sports like football and basketball.) More than 2.6 million children ages 19 and under visit an emergency room for a sports injury every year. That’s a lot of injuries requiring medical attention and keeping kids out of the games they love.
