Pom-Poms and Danger…who knew!

Wednesday, July 1, 2009

You see them at little league games, you see them at high school gymnasiums and football fields…even in college and your professional team sports they are there, cheer leaders.  But what you didn’t know is that behind the glory, just beyond the poof of the plastic strips of pom pom fluff, there was danger.  When a girl decides to take on the mantel of being a cheer leader, she is doing more than telling the world, hey look at my spirit…she is taking on the most dangerous sport a woman can.  Sure you think lacross is bad, maybe field hocky is too rough, but the fact remains that 2/3 of all serious injuries in womens athletics occurs in a short skirt, with poofy plastic poms.
