For years, I have encouraged teams to pray before games for the safety of the players. I knew that standing on the sidelines, you can be injured also, but never heard of someone dying from a hit on the sidelines until this week.
A photographer was hit on the sidelines during a JV game in Wichita and hit her head on some concrete and died several days later at the hospital. What a sad situation. Our thoughts are with the family and the two teams who were involved and anyone who was at the game or knew the photographer.
Our gracious heavenly Father, we pray for no major life changing injuries during the games or as we drive to the games and no matter where we are at the games, Oh Lord we pray. Amen.
