Student Athlete Insurance Program

NEXT

It is little known fact that college sports which is a Multi Billion dollar industry, does not pay its students. The programs themselves make insane amount of money however the people who are directly responsible for generating that money do not get compensated for their services.

The only thing a student athlete is guaranteed is if they are exceptional they will get Graduate Assistant ships and very meager stipends. Compared to what the university is making from sponsors and ticket sales these are literally peanuts.

The only hope for these athlete's is once they finish college or are eligible to go pro(enter professional sports arena) they will earn a good living.

However Imagine this, a student athlete who is in the final year of school and will be eligible to go pro in couple of months is having the season of his career. He is shattering school records and performing like no one else on the field. He is dreaming about joining a professional team and making millions in the next couple of months.

What if while playing he gets hit really hard and blows out his knee. So in an instant all his dreams are shattered. All his aspirations are replaced with countless hours of rehab.

This is where Athlete Insurance Program comes in.

The next blog will go in detail about the various policies and options a student athlete has.
