We had an amazing time at the Positive Strides Event “Bourbon, Bowties & Cigars” last week. We are honored to help support an organization that is focused on the health and safety of our youth athletes.
Information about Positive Strides (www.positive-strides.org):
The Silent Epidemic
Over 38 million children and adolescents participate in youth athletics each year in the US. Over 10 million sports-related injuries occur and the rush to get players back in the game before they are physically ready is fast becoming the silent epidemic among youth athletes. Battling injuries can have long term and devastating impacts.
Making a Difference
Over $170,000 has been raised since 2013 and has allowed the foundation to provide direct services to over 50 student-athletes, including streamlined access to medical specialists, financial assistance for medical treatments and surgeries and mentorship and support groups for athletes and parents. Over 18,000 athletes, parents, coaches and school and athletic administrators have been impacted through Positive Strides Injury Prevention & Nutrition Seminars.
