NFHS Warning
about the Inherent Dangers of Wrestling*
Student athletes and parents
should be aware that Wrestling, like all sports, will always have
inherent dangers. Although rare, death or catastrophic injury can
result from participation in this sport, and care should be taken by
all concerned to minimize such dangers through the use of
appropriate equipment, proper training methods and common sense.
The NFHS encourages student athletes in all sports, and their
parents, to discuss risks and risk minimization with coaches, school
administrators and state high school association officials.
