Message: [QUOTE="sun, post: 4296013, member: 11664"] I googled- insurance is provided for college basketball players - and came up with 2 results that may account for contradictory information being provided. It appears that not all of the costs of treating injuries are totally covered. When college athletes get injured Who pays? [B]NCAA bylaws require that student-athletes be covered by an insurance policy for athletically related injuries with coverage limits of at least $90,000[/B] – at which point the NCAA catastrophic injury insurance program provides coverage. But they do not require that schools offer insurance. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.ncaa.org/news/2016/5/25/survey-most-di-schools-provide-injury-coverage.aspx[/URL] And: Do college athletes have insurance? [B]The NCAA requires every student-athlete to have personal insurance[/B]. The insurance policy can be held by the student-athletes, parents, guardians or through the school. But every student-athlete must have medical insurance to be allowed to participate in intercollegiate games, practices or any team workouts.
