Tommy John Handout

December 21, 2015 by JordanG

Spring will be here before you know it, and with it will comes baseball season. Because the sport consists of so many repetitive motions, overuse injuries are a risk, even for young athletes. To help you educate your athletes and community on this issue, NATA has created a Tommy John Handout (pdf), found on p. 46 of the January NATA News. In addition to explaining the risks associated with throwing too hard, too much or too early, the handout also offers safety tips athletes can use on the baseball diamond.
 
Don’t forget to check out our other infographic handouts that have been made available for NATA members to download, reprint and distribute to their local communities.
