Today, 65 percent of high school girls participate in a school sport. In addition to helping them keep fit, participation in athletics gives teen and tween girls a chance to enjoy healthy competition, make new friends, build self confidence, relieve stress and get a built-in support system.
One sport in particular, cheerleading, has seen a dramatic increase in participation across the US, with competitive cheerleading growing 46% in the last five years alone. In honor of National Cheerleading Safety Month, Varsity – the leading source for all things cheerleading – is hosting a live video and chat briefing on TheMotherhood.com, sharing advice for parents who want to encourage their daughters to get involved and participate in healthy activity.
