Good hygiene in athletic facilities is important in the battle against the spread of both bacterial and viral infections. Daily cleaning of fitness machines that endure the touch of thousands of hands helps keeps surfaces free of harmful germs. Cleaning liquid should be readily available for exercisers to clean off their machines after use.

Staph infection origins are more likely to occur in a locker room because this bacterium likes a warm and humid environment. The warmest and most humid environments in a school are usually the locker areas. And, athletes are likely to receive scratches or cuts during an athletic event such as football, soccer, wrestling or basketball. Even profuse sweating can encourage staph to spread. [Stephen C. Eppes, MD, kidshealth.org, August 2006]

The easiest way to transmit staph bacteria from one athlete to another is to share towels, deodorant, equipment or a bar of soap. College dorm rooms are also breeding grounds for staph because of the close quarters and sharing of personal items. A friend visits from another dorm room, sits on an unmade bed, unknowingly spreads the infection to the sheets, the other student scratches a scab while sleeping, and staph infection has begun. Even artificial turf can be a breeding ground for staph.
