title: Cardiologic assessment in participants of Pop Warner Junior League football.
abstract: Physical examinations and electrocardiograms were performed on 50 young men in preseason training for Pop Warner Football. Functional murmurs were found in 52%. The majority of electrocardiographic findings were within the accepted normal range for nonathletes but some were consistent with findings in trained athletes. Awareness of these normal variations is important for proper assessment of prospective and participating athletes.
