COACH OF THE MONTH
Cannici Truly Feels the Agony of Victory By Edward Kensik DUMONT — It was probably the most painful victory that a coach could ever experience. The Dumont baseball team had just won its first state sectional title since 2002 after the Huskies defeated Ramsey, 8-5 on June 3. Dumont’s team along with head coach Jason Cannici came streaming out of the dugout to celebrate the state championship, but something happened that Cannici would never forget. “It felt like somebody had stepped on my Achilles,” said Cannici. “I felt a pop. It felt like something shot my Achilles. I was in pain and I was happy at the same time. It was a weird combination.” The result was that he would need surgery, but that could not come until the end of the state tournament. He was hoping that it would go until the end in Toms River for the Group 2 state finals. All he had to do was wear a boot and hobble to third base every inning. “It was better off that it was me and didn’t happen to the player,” said Cannici who was in his eighth season as Dumont’s head baseball coach. “You would have had to hold me down to not coach that game (West Essex).” As it turned out, it was a difficult 2-1 loss to West Essex at Ramapo College in the first week of June that ruined the
chance of the Huskies to head down to Toms River for the Group 2 state title game. “If we play two out three of times we would have won the other two times,” said Cannici who was still recuperating from surgery at the beginning of July. The Huskies finished with a 217 record and the Dumont head coach gives plenty of credit to his assistant coaches, Mark Ferriera, Peter Moore and Chris DiGiralamo. “I want to give the other coaches their credit,” said the Dumont head coach. While the loss was painful in one way or another, it was definitely a move in the right direction that had won four straight league championships including the first Big North title. “We wanted to win something more than a league title,” said Cannici. “I told the boys that I wanted to fill up the banner.” While Dumont was the second seed in the Group 2 North 1 state tournament, the Huskies head coach knew that many pointed to the likes of top seeded Glen Rock along with Ramsey and Mahwah as the teams to beat. “Nobody really gave us a shot at winning,” said Cannici. “Even though they had lower seeds, teams like Ramsey and Mahwah were hotter coming in.” But for Cannici, on the day of the game with Ramsey, he realized that his team was ready. “They really wanted it,” said the Dumont head coach.
And it showed in the first inning when the Huskies scored six runs in the first inning. Ramsey would never been able to wake up. In that inning hit fast and furious as the first Dumont batters reached base via a single or a walk. In the end the Huskies would bat around. Dumont’s top hitter, Mike Donellan had a double and two base hits while registering two RBI. On the mound Huskies top hurler Mike Arnold continued his spotless record, 6-0, while scattering seven hits, striking out seven and allowing only two earned runs in a complete game victory. And for Cannici the work by Arnold along with several of his players on the field were key for the success of the team. “For high school baseball it is all about pitching and defense,” said Cannici. “You got to have to make the plays. That is the key ingredient for high school baseball.” Despite the early lead the Dumont head coach knew that the Rams were going to make a push. “You have to stand tall,” said Cannici. As it turned out a low point in the season might have helped to turn things around. On April 30 Dumont traveled to Rutherford and the score turned into a football score as
the Huskies defeated the Bulldogs 24-16. The Huskies would have to forfeit the game and in turn lost a couple of seeding points in the Bergen County Tournament. “That was my mistake,” said Cannici. “It was not done intentionally and it was not done maliciously.” After that the coaching staff and the team met. “We held a meeting to put it past us and what is done is done,” said Cannici. “I was really proud of how the players, the school and staff reacted to it.” While Dumont lost 13-4 to Bergen Catholic in the second round of the county tournament, the forfeit might have been a big boost for the rest of the season. Before becoming the Dumont head coach, he was the Huskies junior varsity coach for two seasons after moving from the Bogota school system. In Bogota he coached the Bucs varsity team for three years. Before coaching the Dumont head coach played college baseball at Manhattan College as a starting pitcher. He pitched two years for Manhattan before suffering a rotator cuff injury. In addition to teaching at Dumont, he also is a pitching instructor at RBI Sports in Valley Cottage, New York.

Wyckoff Sharks Place 3rd Among 29 Teams at Summer Sizzle By Dennis Wilson With a squad of 178 swimmer ranging in age from six to 18, the Wyckoff Sharks splashed to a third place finish in a field of 29 teams that competed in the 21st Annual Summer Sizzle on the campus of Rutgers University in Piscataway. Head coach Kathy Kallman and her seven assistants had four Sharks turn in gold

Leo Lim, this month’s Make Athlete of the Month, was fastest to the finish wall in the 200-meter Individual Medley (2:11.16), 200-Meter Butterfly (2:05.56) and 400 Meter Individual Medley (4:38.65) competing in the boys 15 & Older Age Division.
His younger sister Cleopatra touched first in the 100-Meter Freestyle (:04.99). 200-Meter Individual Medley (2:50.97) and 200-Meter Freestyle (1:33.75).

Michael Pogharuan splashed to a first place finish in the 50-

DBP’s Hamilton is One of Nation’s
Top Down Linemen By John Grady Generating 4,150 yards of offense, 2,300 on the ground when he tucked in the pigskin 191 times and ran, Northern Valley/Old Tappan’s 6-1, 180pound senior signal caller Devin Fuller is top-ranked in an outstanding New Jersey pool of talented signal callers. Fuller tops the 2011 Pre-Season Northeast Jersey All-Star team selected by the members of the Metropolitan New York Football Writers Association. Challenging Fuller for the area’s No. 1 quarterback credentials will be Wayne Hills’ junior Kevin Olsen, the youngest of Patriot’s head coach Chris Olsen’s three sons. Growing up in the shadow of two outstanding older brothers, Christian who played quarterback for the Cavaliers of the University of Virginia and Greg, the current Chicago Bears tight end, the youngest Olsen has big shoes to fill. At 6-3 and a growing 195 pounds, he has the physical attributes for success and his sophomore statistics of completing 56 percent of his passes for 1,440 yards and 16 touchdowns with only seven interceptions demonstrated his athletic prowess. At the top of the area’s out-
standing receiving corps is Don Bosco Prep’s 6-2, 200pound Leonte Caroo who hauled in 45 aerials for 1,005 yards and 18 touchdowns as he averaged 22.3 yards per reception. A premier recruiting target for BCS coaches on the defensive side of the ball is Don Bosco’s Darius Hamilton, a 64, 240-pound defensive Lineman. His 6-1, 210-pound classmate Elijah Shumate racked up 67 hits as a junior and is another Ironman headed to a big-time college program. Pascack Valley’s Zach Costa puts an exceptional foot into the all-star lineup as he punted 42 times last year, averaging 42.8 yards per kick, s statistic that all BCS coaches would like to recruit. Don Bosco Prep’s regularseason schedule is national in scope with the Ironmen opening September 16 against Mission Viejo (CA), going to the Sunshine State of September 16 to battle Manatee (FL) and on October 8 against St. Edward in Lakewood (OH). Bergen Catholic which begins in Philadelphia on September 10 against LaSalle University High School, joins the Ironmen on September 16 in a double header in Dixie against Plant of Tampa (FL) before the local October 1st showdown DBP and the Crusaders.

an)
Ramsey’s Melissa Gwon begins her field season campaign in a career that was not launched until she entered high school. An avid New York Ranger fan, Gwon is the sole returning First Team selected of the Bergen County Women’s Coaches Association 2010 All-Star team. She will be paired up front on the attack line by her teammate, junior Melanie Consiglio, to provide the firepower as the Rams look to take the step from runnerup to champion of the BCWCA Field Hockey Tournament after dropping a 3-2 decision to Northern Highlands in the 2010 title match. Senior Morgan Bishop and junior Rae Caliento are the Rams’ standouts in the back line. Seniors Casey Colangelo, Catherine Peeple and Meaghan Weiss will be the
go-to players as the Lady Highlanders strive to retain their county crown. Wayne Hills will be a factor in the hunt for the Passaic County Coaches Association tourney title as the Patriots of head coach Jenn Badami look to repeat and capture their 11th championship banner in the 36th annual competition. Seniors Kate Freeswick and Hanna Lucas are returning First Team PCCA honorees and will be supported by a trio of second team veterans in Shanna Burchill, Rachel Fikslin and Angelica Giammetta. All members of the Class of 2012 who have been recognized as Pre-Season Northeast Jersey All-Stars will receive invitations to conclude their scholastic field hockey careers participating in a post-season event that is being created by USA College Sports, Inc. through a subsidiary, usacollegefieldhockey.com.

ter Samantha DuBois. Scott will be the key as the Blue Eagles look to five-peat as NJSIAA Non-Public champions.

A LOOK AHEAD TO FALL SPORTS
Ramapo Duo and Cougar Standout Highlight Pre-Season All-Star Selections By Sara Jamshidi Ramapo launched the Bergen County Women Coaches Association Girls Soccer Tournament in 1981 with the first of five consecutive championships. The Raiders have captured 10 and shared two of the 30 championship banners that have been awarded. Immaculate Heart Academy, which claimed its first crown in 1999, will be looking to add to its collection of six outright and one-shared championship when the Blue Eagles seek to five-peat this fall. Last year, IHA blanked Ramapo 2-0 to four-peat but this fall, Ramapo is poised to challenge for another banner. Two of the BCWCA’s three returning 2010 First Team All-Stars are players who Raider head coach Paul Heenehan will build his attack around. Junior Jen Andresen and sophomore Caroline Chagares, both for-
wards, are among the state’s premier attack players. A pair of 2010 Third Team County standouts, senior forward Amanda Baumgarten and her classmate, defender Maddie Dalie, provide Heenehan with a quality quartet. Head coach Steve Silver’s Blue Eagles will be a formidable once again, possessing a strong defensive unit anchored by senior keeper Kassandra Nunez, a 2010 Second Team selection and senior back Christine LaMonica while junior Samantha Wilkes will provide the firepower. Cresskill’s Ani Sarkasian, a junior midfielder, is the other returning First Team choice of the coaches. Glen Rock has a veteran lineup topped by a quartet of juniors Sophie Lederer, a forward and midfielders Hannah Petrone and Grace Taylor and defender Kendall Day along with senior defender Rachel Yancius. Saddle Brook will be solid defensively with senior keeper Melissa
Alvarado, Taranto Return to Propel Ramapo Boys Soccer Program By Eric Studnicki Junior Mike Taranto starts his third varsity campaign up front for Ramapo where he netted 18 goals and distributed 16 assists as a sophomore. He began his varsity career as a starter on the back line when h was a freshman. Taranto and his senior teammate Brandon Alvarado, a defensive specialist, are the only returning First Team selections from the 2010 Bergen County Coaches Association’s All-Star Team. Clifton, the reigning Passaic County Tournament champion that ran off a streak of nine consecutive successes from 1997 through 2005, welcomes back senior defender Brandon Guzman, one of five Passaic County Coaches Association First Team All-Stars who are back for the 2011 campaign. page 14
Passaic Tech, with two choices among the quintet in senior middie John Gonzalez and junior forward Teddy Forson, are positioned to make a run at the PCT banner they shared with Clifton in 2008. Midfielders Walther Castille, a Hawthorne senior, and Pompton Lakes’ junior Enver Caymaz, are the other two who were recognized by the PCCA last fall.

By Tim Sohn EJ Barthel always dreamed of owning his own sports training facility. The 26-year-old East Rutherford native was an all-state football player at Becton Regional High School – he graduated in 2003. He went on to play Division I football at Rutgers University, and he received a full athletic scholarship to University of Massachusetts. While in college, Barthel was trained by renowned trainer Joe DeFranco, and in 2008-2009, he attended New York Giants mini-camp as a free agent. “I performed pretty well, and then I got an opportunity to play for Coach [Jim] Fassel in the United Football League in Las Vegas [with the Locomotives],” said Barthel, who opened Explosive Training Systems, 100 Hollister Road, Teterboro, in 2008. The facility is 5,400 square feet. The fullback explained that it’s important to provide sports training to any youth who wants to participate, no matter what the financial situation. “I was an underdog-type
player with a lot of odds against me. I had a pretty stellar career in athletics. I almost feel like it’s my responsibility to pass on my journey with youth athletes in the area that are going through the same issues that I was going through. Especially financially, it’s really hard for athletes before this type of training, professional sports training, to find quality trainers. I wanted to build a facility based upon the things I went through, just sticking to the roots. It’s about athletics. It’s not about money,” he said. Barthel said that Explosive Training Systems offers programs for individuals, groups and teams. He has eight employees. “We recommend our athletes train in a group because competition is what brings out the best results. However, some athletes do have special needs where they need to train individually,” he said. “The next level in college, you’re going to train as a team. There is no one-onone training. You want to compete with each other. You want to be able to push each other, and that element coming off
“The next level in college, you’re going to train as a team. There is no one-on-one training.
You want to compete with each other. You want to be able to push each other, and that element coming off the field will help you when you get back on the field.”
—EJ Barthel,
Explosive Training Systems Owner Strength Training/Sports Training Specialist
the field will help you when you get back on the field.” Explosive Training Systems offers training in all sports. Barthel specifically cited the youth program. ”We have a great program as far as success and the youth aspect. Our youth program is phenomenal. We have so many guys in youth wrestling that placed at states this year. We have one guy, who’s probably the best wrestler in the country, in New Jersey. His name’s Nick Suriano. He plays for Paramus. He’s probably our best youth athlete in the program. I think he sets the bar high for any youth athlete in New Jersey. I think he’s lost maybe four matches his whole life,” he said,
adding that youth programs have pro instructors. They include Blake Costanzo, Cleveland Browns; Brandon London, Montreal Alouettes; Robert Douglas and Kenny Ingram, New York Giants; Mike Fladell, New York Giants and Jets; and Ramel Meekins, Toronto Argonauts. Barthel added that they teach that the fundamentals of being a good athlete go beyond training itself. He explained that having a good work ethic, being committed to the program, setting goals, and doing the right things both on and off the field are important. “I’m serious. I mean, you have to take your life seriously.

If you really want to be a collegiate scholarship athlete, or even a successful athlete at any level, you have to take it seriously. You have to want to be the best,” he explained. Explosive Training Systems also offers personal training. “A lot of women and men are looking to lose weight, tone their bodies and live a healthier lifestyle. So, what our motto with that scenario is, if you train like an athlete, you’re going to look like an
athlete. We want to make sure our clients train like athletes so their bodies can have the same results in terms of muscle, terrific nutrition, having a nutritionist come in and being part of the program to live healthier lifestyles,” said Barthel. The facility offers training programs for three levels: youth athletes, a high school and college advanced program, and a pro program. It also provides police and fire academy training. Barthel said one of his cus-

tomers won an Ironman Award with the police academy. Training programs are based on a four-day workout: Day 1: Speed and upper-body strength; Day 2: Agility and lower-body strength; Day 3: Conditioning, muscle endurance and cardio; and Day 4: High repetition upperbody strength “We try our best to keep the business aspect out of training as much as we can by making
our programs the most affordable as possible. We don’t turn our doors on any athlete that comes in here. If anybody needs help in terms of fundraising to get their team trained, we will make it happen. We will work with any athlete, any parent, because again we’re all here about the basic elements of being an athlete, not based on making money off these kids,” concluded Barthel.

Bergen Hawks Look to Storm the 2011 Season Bergen Hawks Home Schedule Kick-off at 7:00 pm at Overpeck Park in Palisades Park
July 16 – Chambersburg (PA) Cardinals August 13 - Lancaster (PA) Lightning Photo courtesy of the Bergen Hawks.
August 20 – South Jersey Lynx By Sal Gigante “A player must always be willing to learn, keep in both physical and mental health and commit to every event the team sponsors” said Bud Cuttito of Paramus when eagerly stating his expectations for the Bergen Hawks, a minor league football franchise he owns. Playing in a state-of-the-art stadium in Overpeck Park in Palisades Park, the Bergen Hawks, made their first year as a minor professional football franchise a memorable one when they won the 2009 BNEFF (Big North East Football Federation) championship. Cuttito’s franchise joined the BNEFF and stayed for two seasons before joining the GDFL, (Gridiron Developmental Football League) for the 2011 season.. The GDFL consists of challenging opponents and the Bergen Hawks feel their strongest competition this summer will be the
DC Explosion and Chambersburgh Cardinals, which has been one of the top franchise for more than two decades/. However, the Bergen Hawks organization will not under estimate any of their other opponents. The Bergen Hawks biggest rival since their creation of franchise has been the NJ Lions which is based in Holmdel. The NJ Lions remain in the BNEFF which was started in 2007 by Dexter Girven and Alex Alston Jr. The Bergen Hawk outstanding first year paid off and continued well into the play offs. Their initial season ended as the BNEFF champions of 2009. Cuttito feels that his team must be tough to become champions and stated, “The players must always bring their ‘A’ game as this new league is very tough.” The Bergen Hawks know the feeling of becoming champions and do not want the feeling to go away any time soon. The desire and drive for the feeling of champions is visible from all
perspectives on the team. The philosophy of the Bergen Hawks is to play as a team because unity is valued and honored between players, coaches, and the growing fan base. Cuttito continued, “All players benefit the team when everyone is a dependent part”. The Bergen Hawks have recently hired two new staff members, both having NFL experience under their belts. The two new coaches are Lamar Gordon and Rich Scanlon and they will both be on the defensive side of the ball. One coach that Cuttito has a lot of confi dence in to benefit the team is his son Rob. Before switching to the coaching sidelines for the Hawks, he played four years of Semi- Pro football as a quarterback. He played two seasons as the starting signal caller for the Hawks and was a key contributor to that championship season of 2009. Rob is now the co-offensive coordinator for the Hawks. Owner Bud Cuttito eagerly stated “Rob is a true student of the game and an outstanding tactician. He
reads defenses very well and is a strong play caller as defensive situations develop.” With a strong coaching staff, a nucleus united, veteran players and a strong fan base, the Bergen Hawks are prepared for the 2011 season and their target is to return to the heights and raise the championship trophy in the air once again. Low-cost, quality gridiron entertainment for families is the product the Hawks offer to the residents of Bergen County. Unlike Giants Stadium, a family may enjoy a Saturday night football game and pop corn and hot dogs from the snack bar without hitting an ATM machine. See you at the next Hawks’ home game.

Bergen Hawkettes
By Liz Sardinsky Many people after high school, and most people after college, no longer have the privilege of continuing their sports career and are forced into some sort of a corporate world. Luckily for the Bergen Hawks and the Hawkettes, they are able to extend their run as athletes far longer then most without the extreme pressures of a professional league. The Bergen Hawks are a minor league football team and the Hawkettes are its dance team and main support system. Recently I had the pleasure of speaking with Simone Portera, the Director of the Hawkettes dance team. She was able to fill me in on some interesting background on the young team, and gave some insight to the passion these women continue to share for dance. The Hawkettes were founded in 2009, the same year the Bergen Hawks won the Minor League Football BNEFF championship. It goes to show that the enthusiasm these women have is contagious and helps the football team produce on the field. The excitement did not stop there for these ladies and they continue to dance their way into their own championships. The Bergen Hawkettes have competed and won several competitions, as well as the Bee’s Nest Team of the Year. editor@sportsfitnesswellness.com
Love for the sport is what drives these women and all participation with the team is completely voluntary. However, some of them use the experience as a stepping-stone and would like to continue onto the professional level. Portera spoke about some girls who went on to try out for some high level, professional dance teams such as the New York Jets and also the New Jersey Nets. Portera, the director of the team, is fairly new to the Hawkettes. Before joining the team in January of this year, she was a life long dancer and cheerleader. While working in the school system in Washington DC, Portera was the head Varsity coach of a high school cheerleading squad. When she decided to move back to New Jersey, she was easily persuaded to join the Hawkettes by her sister, who is also a member. Six other dancers on the team, as well as a coach and choreographer joined the Portera sisters. When Portera is not practicing or performing with the Hawkettes, she is a campus director in Newark, New Jersey. There she helps underprivileged and troubled children excel through the school system. When I asked Portera where she saw herself in five years, she seemed optimistic about her future with the Hawkettes and was just living her life day by day. Anyone who would like to see the Hawkettes in action
can watch them on the sideline at any Bergen Hawks football games. The Hawks play at Vince Lombardi Field in Palisades Park, New Jersey on Saturday nights at 7:00 PM. As of now, there are no training camps for aspiring Hawkettes, but Portera expressed the team was going to look into some options after this current sea-
son. The Hawkettes can also be seen performing at events all over New Jersey. For more information on the Hawkettes dance team, you can visit NJHawks.com or their Facebook page under NJ Bergen Hawks Dance Team. For all of you hopeful Hawkettes out there, auditions for the 2012 season start in April!
In Northern New Jersey, that’s what happens every time our TEAM come(s) out to play. That’s why our State Farm® team is proud to support them all season long.

Wayne resident Sean Thomas was working for his family’s commercial construction business, and he had been involved in sports since age 4. “My athletic career got bigger and bigger as I got older, but I never had the opportunity to train at individualized sports like these kids in today’s world. These places didn’t exist,” explained Thomas, referring to sports training facilities like the one he owns and opened in 2008, Overtime Sports, 321 Hamburg Turnpike, in Wayne. Thomas used to play football, baseball and golf. Now, he coaches football at the high school level. He came up with the idea of opening Overtime Sports after what he was seeing in the sports-training world — his nieces were going through this very thing — that they would have to go to different facilities in a variety of towns to get the training they needed. Originally, according to Thomas, he was just going to rent out the 40,000-squarefoot facility after putting some turf down and charge an hourly fee. “The more research that I did, the more involved I got into this thing, the more elaborate I wanted it to be. So, what I did was I did my homework. I kept drafting up different designs and layouts, and I hired an architect and brought him on board, and this thing went from being just a huge 40,000-square-foot box with turf in it to eventually throwing in things that I saw would be needed or would make us at least unique from other peo-

ple out there. We cater to all sports out there, not just baseball or football or something that has a field preference,” he said, adding that structural alterations had to be made to accommodate the plan. The facility features a 40yard dash on the turf, a 3,000square-foot strength center, and a whole area dedicated to batting cages. “The concept was that you could go under one roof and have all these services taken care of. So, the moms and dads after school aren’t running from one town to the other to the other to the other and scrambling around because in today’s day and age parents have multiple kids, they have schedules, and they have this one doing one thing and this one doing another thing. So, we designed an all-inclusive, all-in-one sports training facility,” said Thomas. Overtime Sports trains people interested in all sports, from the novice to the pro. In fact, five or six New York Giants are currently training at the facility because of the lockout. According to Thomas, Jerry Palmieri, the head strength coach for the Giants, visited the facility in the spring when there was word of a lockout. “He heard about our strength coach [Kevin Ensenhe of K Strength Training], checked out our facility, looked at the turf, the weight equipment, went through the checklist and went back to his team and said, guys, this is a place
I recommend you go to. So, we got his stamp of approval. And when that happened, that helped us reiterate that what we’re doing and what we’ve de-

signed and what we have here is legit,” he said. Thomas added that Overtime Sports also caters to • People who want to get involved in sports at a young age • Those who want to try a new sport • Athletes looking to get better at each sport they play • Training for teams • Training for small groups “What we do here is individualized sport training. So, it could be baseball, softball, lacrosse, football, whatever you wish to partake in and get better at. But what we also do here is we have a professional strength coach and certified trainer who handles all our strength-training and agility classes. Typically, he likes to begin working with athletes as young as 9 years old,” said
tivities for children starting at the age of 3-5 with the peewee program, in which they learn four sports for 15 minutes each per session — basketball, soccer, baseball, and football. “You never lose their attention span. By the time they get excited and overwhelmed with one thing, boom, you’re moving to the next thing. It’s like that because a lot of time you’ll see a little kickers program or you’ll see a little dribblers program, and it’s just focusing on one sport. How do you know the kid is really like or going to play that sport? Why not at that age introduce them to all these sports and let them eventually pick from there? We saw that program definitely grow last year,” said Thomas. He explained that strength training is most popular at Overtime Sports. However, baseball comes in second and
football third. The training facility also helps many local school districts with fundraising. In addition, two years ago, it joined forces with Joe DeFranco, a well-known trainer from Wyckoff. They united and created a competition called “The World’s Strongest Athlete,” which consists of pro, college, high school, and police, fire and military divisions. How it works is, participants come in for a day, they pay a fee to compete, spectators pay a fee to watch. Last year, a dinner was added to make it a twoday event. All proceeds are donated to the National MS Society. However, this year’s event has been postponed due to the uncertainty of the lockout. “We have the postponed the event because we want to make sure we get the good draw we’ve gotten in the past,” said Thomas.

SPORTS INJURIES
What You Don’t Know About Common Sport Injuries Can Really Surprise You About 85 percent of elite and recreational badminton players are injured during an average year, 65 per cent of regular runners are hit by the injury bug, and 21 percent of walkers are afflicted (by definition, an ‘injury’ is a physical problem severe enough to force a reduction in training). When injury rates are expressed per hour of activity, risk of injury can be ranked by sport. Not surprisingly, such rankings show that sports like rugby and lacrosse produce the most mayhem, with about 30 injuries per 1000 hours of activity (rates above 5 per 1000 hours are considered high). Basketball and squash are also problem producers, with around 14 injuries per 1000 hours. Running and highintensity aerobic dance follow fairly closely, with 11 injuries per 1000 hours (or about one per 100 hours). A variety of other sports are ranked below, with the number of injuries per 1000 hours of activity in parentheses (‘Injuries in Recreational Adult Fitness Activities,’ The American Journal of Sports Medicine, vol. 21 (3), pp. 461467, 1993). 1. Alpine skiing (8) 2. Rowing machine exercise (6) 3. Treadmill walking or jogging (6) 4. Tennis (5) 5. Dancing classes (5) 6. Resistance training with weight machines (4) 7. Resistance training with free weights (4) 8. Outdoor cycling (3.5) 9. Stationary cycle exercise (2) 10. Stair climbing (2) 11. Walking (2)
Of course, injuries in sports such as rugby and lacrosse are often the result of impacts with other players — or with other players’ equipment, as in squash. Such injuries are often very difficult to avoid. editor@sportsfitnesswellness.com
Your body may be strong, flexible, and injury-resistant, but if another player’s racket catches you in the eye, you’re going to be hurt, no matter how well prepared you are. However, in sports such as running, cycling, swimming, stair climbing, and walking, most injuries are not the result of sudden catastrophes but occur because of what is popularly called ‘overuse’. This is one way of saying that a key part of an athlete’s body simply can’t stand up to the regular pressures of training and competition without breaking down. TAKE RUNNING AS AN EXAMPLE: To think about how such injuries can be prevented, it is instructional to consider the sport of running, which can certainly be classified as a highinjury sport. As mentioned, 65 percent of runners are injured in an average year, one running injury occurs for about every 100 hours of running, and runners miss about 5-10 per cent of their workouts due to injury (‘Incidence and Severity of Injury Following Aerobic Training Programs Emphasizing Running, Racewalking, or Step Aerobics,’ Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, vol. 25(5), p. S81, 1993). Those very high 65-per centinjury and 10-per cent-absence rates could probably be significantly lower — if runners knew more about the actual causes of injuries, made a few simple adjustments in their training schedules, and routinely strengthened their muscles and joints. In fact, research suggests that running injuries could be cut by around 25 per cent (Sport for All: Sport Injuries and Their Prevention, Council of Europe, Netherlands Institute of Sports Health Care, Oosterbeek, 1989). But what specific steps should be taken? To understand how to prevent injuries, it is first
necessary to clear away some misconceptions. For example, coaches and runners often believe that males have higher injury rates than females, but male and female runners actually have about the same injury rate per hour of training. Large numbers of runners believe that training speed, racing speed, running surface, and body weight are closely related to the risk of injury, but research suggests otherwise. If you’re heavier than average, you’re not more likely than a lightweight runner to be injured during a typical year of training, for example. Likewise, if you carry out most of your training on concrete roadways, you’re probably not hurt more often than the runner who pads along softly on forest trails. In addition, your
foot-strike pattern - whether you prefer to land on the heel or forefoot while running — doesn’t have much impact on your injury risk (American Journal of Sports Medicine, vol. 16(3), pp. 285-294, 1988). Such factors are just not very important in predicting injury. So, to keep your body free from injury, it must be strong, and to prevent an injury re-occurrence, the damaged area must be totally revamped. The key, however, is not to increase GENERAL strength but actual strength during those movements which are required and appropriate for your sport. That means specific, weight-bearing, closed-chain resistance training which forces the muscles in your body to function powerfully and in synchrony.

VALLEY HOSPITAL TO OFFER BASELINE CONCUSSION TESTING FOR $25 On Tuesday, August 16th, baseline testing will be available in the Kraft Center of the Valley Health System, 15 Essex Road, Paramus. To register an appointment or for more information, contact the Sports Institute at 201-447-8133 Courtesy of Valley Hospital
CONCUSSION IS BRAIN INJURY A concussion is a mild, traumatic brain injury usually occurring after a blow to the head. Although the majority of athletes who experience a concussion are likely to recover, an unknown number may experience chronic cognitive and neurobehavioral difficulties related to recurrent injury. This constellation of symptoms is referred to as post-concussion syndrome, which can be disabling and, in some cases, permanent for an athlete. In addition to post-concussion syndrome, suffering a second blow to the head while recovering from an initial concussion can have catastrophic consequences as in the case of second impact syndrome. Second impact syndrome is a life-threatening condition in which a second concussion occurs before a first concussion has properly healed, causing rapid and severe brain swelling. Second impact syndrome can result from even a very mild concussion that occurs days or weeks after the initial concussion. Signs and symptoms of a concussion can show up right after the injury or may not appear or be noticed until days or weeks after the injury. If your child reports any symptoms of concussion, or if you notice the symptoms yourself, seek medical attention right away. Concussion severity varies widely, and the number of signs and symptoms vary also. Serious injuries may show few symptoms. In fact, less than 10 percent of concussed athletes lose consciousness. Athletes that are not fully recovered from an initial concussion are significantly vulnerable for recurrent, cumulative, and even catastrophic consequences if
non-contact activities to more intense game simulation activities and spread over several days. • Stop activity if any symptoms return and seek medical attention.
ImPACT TESTING another concussive injury occurs. Such difficulties are prevented if the athlete is allowed time to recover from concussion and return-toplay decisions are carefully made. No athlete should return to a sport or other at-risk participation when symptoms of concussion are present and recovery is ongoing. In summary, the best way to prevent difficulties with concussion is to manage the injury properly when it does occur.
CONCUSSION MANAGEMENT STEPS • Anytime during a practice or game that an athlete experiences any sign(s) or symptom(s) of a concussion the athlete should discontinue play for that day. • Seek medical attention to evaluate injury. • Monitor symptoms; if symptoms worsen, go immediately to the nearest emergency room. • If applicable, take a follow-up ImPACT cognitive test within 2-3 days following the injury. • Return to physical activity only after being symptom-free and only after being cleared by a medical professional experienced in treating concussions. • When cleared by a medical professional with experience in treating concussions, an athlete may begin a supervised progressive return to physical activity. The progression should be from low intensity,
At the forefront of proper concussion management is the implementation of baseline and/or post-injury neurocognitive testing. Such evaluation can help to objectively evaluate the post-injury condition and track recovery for safe return to play, thus preventing the cumulative effects of concussion. ImPACT (Immediate Post Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing) is a user-friendly, computer-based testing program specifically designed for the management of sports-related concussions. ImPACT is currently the most widely utilized computer program and has been implemented effectively across high school, collegiate, and professional levels of sports. ImPACT is suitable for athletes ages 12 and older. It is a 20-minute battery of neurocognitive evaluations, including measures of verbal and visual memory, attention span, brain processing speed, and reaction time. Ideally, athletes first complete a baseline ImPACT test prior to playing sports. If an athlete subsequently experiences a concussion, he or she is re-tested and the baseline data is compared to the post-concussion data to monitor recovery and determine when it is safe for the
player to return to active sports.
SPORTS INSTITUTE CONCUSSION MANAGEMENT PROGRAM The Sports Institute is recognized as a trusted resource in the prevention and treatment of sports related injuries with a staff of licensed athletic trainers and a network of orthopedic and sports medicine specialty physicians. The Sports Institute is now offering the ImPACT program for young athletes diagnosed with a concussion.
WE CAN PROVIDE: • Baseline ImPACT testing on scheduled dates prior to each season • Post-injury ImPACT testing by appointment • Neurocognitive assessment reports, comparison to norms, and follow-up testing • Balance, coordination, and reaction-time assessment • Symptom severity assessment • Medical referral information • Educational resources • Return-to-play activity progression plan Printed test results will be compared to baseline data and/or normative data providing valuable information for your physician to make critical return-toplay decisions. For more information or to schedule an ImPACT test, contact the Sports Institute at 201-4478133 or e-mail sports@valley health.com.
