Cheerleading: Deceptively Dangerous
All the guys in basketball jerseys, football pads and helmets, with their chiseled physiques, and hard and dirty reputations are put too shame when placed next too a cheerleader.
A five foot girl, wearing short skirts and a sweater, turns out to be far braver and tougher than the guys on the court or the field. Why you ask? This is because cheerleading is one dangerous sport. Types of Injury At basketball and football games, you see players rolling their ankles, dislocating their shoulders, and other cringe worthy injuries. You see them grimace in pain as they are brought to the locker room to assess their injury. But these are mere bruises when compared to the type of pain cheerleaders face day in and day out. Young high school and college girls have been reported to suffer concussions, bruised lungs, broken ribs, broken necks, spinal injuries and other worse damage to their small bodies. It is hard to imagine these girls, with their wide smiles and cheery disposition can suffer these horrendous injuries but one has to remember that the aesthetic aspects of cheerleading often hides or masks the inherent dangers.
