There were two versions. Sadly, some girls had already left when Marc shot these.

What a great episode this is. Very very sad, yet eye opening.

Preventable youth sports injuries have become an epidemic, driven by the for-profit professionalization of kids' sports. Subscribe to HBO on...

Thank you for joining us and welcome to a unique forum created to SUPPORT those who are going through and those who have gone through an ACL injury.

This group was created to fill a void and satisfy a need resulting in the proliferation of devastating knee injuries to our children. I have been in the Strength & Conditioning world for a very long time. Over 20 years. I have seen so much and I have learned so many things through this process.

I have so much to teach.

So, I came up with the idea of offering a place to turn to, a group of others who understand, a community of caring individuals who are going through or have gone through a literal hell.

And, to let the world know that there is a person out there who cares. A person who has so much experience, passion and desire to help save others from this fate.

I have met 2 High School girls, basketball players, who have suffered a season ending ACL tear in the last 5 days!

TWO girls in FIVE DAYS!!

THREE in SEVENTEEN DAYS, actually!!!

I have seen TWO ACL tears happen in person. Right before my eyes. One of them was one of my field hockey girls. On Senior Day. I cried.

We are dealing with an EPIDEMIC. And it kills me to see this happening. To see them on crutches. To see the look in their eyes. To see the sadness and the desperation. Then to have them see tears in my eyes when we meet and as we speak. The girls must wonder. They are literally shocked when I walk up to them and ask if they hurt an ACL. It is hard to not cry.

"How could you tell?" they ask...

SO, in response, we are now scheduling our 2nd and 3rd FREE ACL Injury/Sport Speed Clinics, both to be held at Coach Paul's SPEED WORLD.

Clinic #2 is Friday, April 24 6-9PM.
Clinic #3 is Friday, May 15 6-8PM.
More details TBA.

Please let me know if you have any questions, or how I can help you.

Thank YOU!
