There’s a big story around high school sports, and it’s participation. More than 8 million kids in America play, according to the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS).
What’s surprising is what’s growing. For example, in football it’s from the girls’ side, thanks to flag football. Wrestling is up, too—both boys and girls—as well as track, volleyball and soccer.
If your kids are in sports, no doubt you’re seeing this firsthand. Sooner or later, however, what you’re also going to see is your kid with a sprain, strain or broken bone.
What then? That’s when you’ll be glad you’ve got Accident Insurance. Here’s how to get it with Mercer Indigo.
