I think the article should cover "Health Issues in Athletics" -- take out the 'youth.' I think 'youth' athletics can be discussed (especially in the injury section, bone development, etc.) but many of the health issues are prevalent in collegiate and pro athletics as well. Perhaps my next step would be to organize the article based on high school vs collegiate vs professional athletic health issues. I could expand on how the NCAA addresses health issues in athletics. I also think the article can be better organized into categories including: eating disorders, overtraining, steroids, injury and end with a treatment section. There's definitely a lot to be said in each of these categories, some may even require categories within their discussion. 98.204.64.227 (talk) 05:48, 14 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
