Clover Safety - Horse Riding - Tips & Activity
Information available from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission indicates approximately 22,000 youth aged 18 years and younger were treated in hospitals for horseback riding injuries during 2005. Most injuries occurred when riders either fell or were thrown from horses. Broken bones, bruises, sprains, and concussions were the most common types of injuries.
