Hello, my name is Andrew Leal, I have played competitive sports my entire life and have dealt with countless injuries. My goal is to have other young athletes not make the same mistakes that I did. The worst feeling is not knowing if you could have made it professionally because your body wasn’t the same before the injury. Long term sports concentrates on the importance of kids growing up playing sports. Teaching the youth to minimize the risk of injury is crucial, especially nowadays it seems like kids and parents aren’t watching the harm the bodies are taking at such a young age. Kids take countless head hits or throwing curveballs when elbows don’t have the muscle for it and for the safety of our children and future professional athletes I hope the voices will be heard before the storm hits! Now lets get into the good stuff and make kids have a longer career!
