When it comes to protecting athletes, the unexpected can cost millions. 🏈💰 As the NFL grappled with major injuries like Aaron Rodgers’ Achilles tear last season, to more recently a game changing concussion for Tua Tagovailoa, the importance of insurance in contracts is getting attention. Teams that drop the ball on protecting key players risk losing millions—not just in payments, but in crucial salary cap space. It’s a "Hail Mary" approach that some teams simply can’t afford. Athletes deserve protection, both on and off the field. Just like NFL teams find ways to safeguard their investments, our mission is to help athletes stay safe, strong, and supported as they chase their dreams. Support from all angles—whether it's through injury prevention or financial planning—is how we build a stronger future for sports. #AthleteSafety #SportsManagement #NFL #YouthSports #PlayersHealth

Smart teams know how to play defense off the field, too. 🏈 With high-profile NFL injuries on the rise, a recent ESPN article shows how more clubs are quietly turning to insurance policies to protect their most valuable players. From quarterbacks to top performers, teams that invest in these safety nets are thinking ahead, keeping their roster intact and safeguarding their salary cap for the future. At Players Health, we share the same philosophy—building a strong foundation of protection for athletes, ensuring they have the support they need to thrive. Whether it’s on the field or behind the scenes, a solid game plan makes all the difference. #AthleteSafety #PlayerProtection #NFL #SportsInsurance #Players Health

4 finance rules to keep your sports organization safe and secure ✅ ⬇️ Managing the finances of a sports organization is no easy task, but there are key steps you can take to stay on track and protect your funds. Whether you’re a coach, league administrator, or parent, understanding basic financial oversight is important for your organization to run smoothly. Here are four essential rules to follow: 1. Two-Signature Rule: Avoid giving full financial control to one person. Requiring two signatures for every transaction helps prevent unauthorized spending 2. Implement an Accounting System: Ditch the spreadsheets and invest in accounting software like QuickBooks to ensure transparency and avoid potential errors 3. Create an Annual Budget: Agree on a clear budget with leadership and review detailed financials at every board meeting to stay accountable 4. Consider an Outside Audit: For larger organizations, an independent audit can verify the accuracy and integrity of your financials Practicing safe financial habits is crucial for your organization’s success. And if you’re curious about taking things a step further, Players Health has a variety of products to support you. See the first comment, below, for a link to our site.

Billions of dollars flow through youth sports... but where does it all go? ⚽️ 🥅 A 2022 article by The Washington Post highlights a critical issue in youth sports: financial mismanagement. The story covers the Bend FC Timbers, a large soccer club in Oregon, which serves as a cautionary tale of what can go wrong without proper oversight. Allegations of embezzlement involving over $80,000 have divided the community, sparking lawsuits and fracturing the club’s once-strong unity. This case is a prime example of how unchecked financial practices can have devastating impacts on both the organization and the families involved. But unfortunately, this isn’t an isolated or unique case. As youth sports grow into a $19 billion industry, financial oversight often lags behind. Many organizations, run by volunteers, lack proper checks and balances, leading to financial scandals. From soccer to wrestling clubs, embezzlement cases have popped up across the U.S., reminding the community how vital financial transparency and strong governance are for maintaining trust and keeping youth sports safe. For those managing sports organizations, it’s a clear call to ensure sound financial practices are in place. At Players Health, we’re committed to protecting organizations both on and off the field, ensuring safe, secure environments for kids.

Navigating insurance in youth sports? Have questions about what coverage your organization needs? 🏈 Running a youth sports league or organization comes with a lot of responsibility – including protecting your athletes, coaches, and staff. But where do you start when it comes to insurance? Here’s a breakdown of key coverage options to help keep your sports organization safe: 1. General Liability Insurance: Protects against third-party claims like injuries, property damage, and personal injury 2. Accident Medical Insurance: Covers medical expenses for athletes injured during games or practice 3. Directors & Officers Insurance: Shields board members and officers from claims of mismanagement 4. Workers Compensation Insurance: Provides benefits for employees or volunteers injured on the job If you’re unsure which coverage is right for your organization, our specialists recommend assessing the specific risks of your sport, from high-contact activities like football to recreational leagues, and selecting insurance that addresses those risks. Using football as an example: If you’re unsure which coverage is best for your football league, start by evaluating the risks involved. Football, being a high-contact sport, carries a higher risk of injury, so you’ll likely need comprehensive coverage, including general liability and accident medical insurance, to protect both your athletes and organization. 👉 For a deeper dive into understanding insurance for youth sports organizations, follow the link in the first comment. #PlayersHealth #SafetyFirst #SportsLeadership
