Emergency room visits for cheerleading injuries nationwide have more
than doubled since the early 1990s, and the rate of life-threatening
injuries has startled researchers. Of 104 catastrophic injuries
sustained by female high school and college athletes from 1982 to
2005 — head and spinal trauma that occasionally led to death — more
than half resulted from cheerleading, according to the National
Center for Catastrophic Sports Injury Research. All sports combined
did not surpass cheerleading.
