New Program Focuses on the Unique Health Needs of Young Athletes
Clifton, NJ (November 10, 2011) — The health needs of highly competitive athletes can be very different from those of the wider population. Those differences are particularly important for young athletes, whose body and mind may still be growing and developing at a rapid pace.
The Sports/Health Matrix™ recognizes these differences and is establishing programs to help meet the unique health needs of an evolving generation of young competitors. Today, youths who participate on serious sports teams typically train several times a week, and some augment their team practices with additional private training sessions and conditioning clinics. The Sports/Health Matrix will work with recognized medical experts and leading sports organizations to provide state-of-the-art health information that addresses the needs of these highly competitive young athletes.
“Many children and adolescents who are involved in serious sports programs push themselves almost every day to perform faster and compete harder,” says Kevan H. Chambers, CBiol, MSB, Director of the Sports/Health Matrix. “As parents and coaches of these aspiring young athletes, we want to support and nurture their dreams; but it is essential that we also recognize their unique health needs and understand how to meet them.”
By collaborating with recognized medical experts and leading sports organizations, the Sports/Health Matrix will be able to provide young athletes, their parents and coaches, and their healthcare professionals with the latest insights into the unique medical, nutritional, physiological, and psychological demands of highly competitive sport.
The Sports/Health Matrix is based in Clifton, New Jersey. For more information, visit www.SportsHealthMatrix.com, e-mail kchambers@SportsHealthMatrix.com, or telephone 973-641-9104.
