Obesity in a high school football candidate: a case presentation.

A 14-yr-old male presented for medical clearance to play fall football for his high school team. He had stayed out of the prior spring football practice sessions after a shoulder injury on the first day of practice, but indicated no other positive responses to the standard medical questionnaire. He was severely overweight with height of 180 cm, weight 133.4 kg, and his estimated body fat was 36%. His examination was otherwise not revealing. He demonstrated poor aerobic fitness, exercise-induced bronchospasm, residual left shoulder weakness, and a dyslipoproteinemia on further medical evaluation. He was disqualified on an empirical basis, the attending physician making the clinical decision that it would be of greater harm than good for this adolescent to participate. However, there is little data and no established guidelines for this type of situation. The overweight football athlete is a challenge to the sports medicine team, both in managing the condition and in determining athletic eligibility.
