Cheerleaders are not always cheerful
Cheerleaders are an integral part of games like football, baseball and, of late, it has entered the game of cricket courtesy the IPL – that too only in the shortest version called the T-20. However, it is not always skin show but the girls have to face physical discomfort of muscle pains, joint pains etcetera apart from damages to the spinal cord. About 20% of the injuries related to strains or sprains of the legs, while about one in seven were of broken arms, or arm sprains or strains. Therefore, the next time you cheer your team as you watch the pom-poms waving, remember that there is always a price attached to the glamour – nothing comes for free.

The sports stars need to follow suit with all the injuries they have had lately.
