It could be due to the way that you walk.  I have played sports my entire life - mostly playing catcher in ball and curling.  My knees have had it pretty rough and sometimes click when I stand or walk.  Talking to a specialist, my knee pain could be due to the way that I walk.  I also hyper-extend my knees when i stand, causing more stress on them.  Yours could be due to how you walk or could be due to growing pains.  Who knows you might have moved your leg an awkward direction without knowing it and strained some ligaments or muscles.

If it persists for a long period of time, try seeing a doctor - they should be able to refer you to a specialist or a physiotherapist if needed.
