okay, well, I'm a cheerleader, and if you have ever seen the kind of splits and stuff cheerleaders do, you should know we sprain and pull stuff all the time, especially in our legs!. My advice is to ice it for a while, and then stretch it out!. What happens when you pull a muscle is the muscle that you pulled has been over worked and begins to swell!. The ice will reduce the swelling, but you HAVE to keep it on for at lest an hour!. The stretching will relieve tension in your legs!. If it still hurts after that, and make sure you do it RIGHT, you can run over to walgreens or CVS or whatever and get some over the counter creams and stuff that should help you while you play!. Good luck at the game!Www@Answer-Health@Com
