When kids sign up to play youth sports there are always fees involved. And parents pay those fees so their child can be on the team, not the injury report. That's why I love Sports Refund, and parents will too. Sports Refund is low-cost sports fee insurance – NOT health insurance, sports fee insurance. So if your child becomes injured or sick and can't play, you get your fees reimbursed for that lost time, from one game to an entire season. It's that simple. This product not only saves families wasted fees, it saves injured athletes the stress of feeling like they're wasting their parents' money. The fees come back until the player comes back. So they can focus on fully recovering and making a healthy return to the game. Sports Refund has options for individuals and organizations. Ask your club if they offer it, or visit SportsRefund.com/Game to learn more and sign up today. That's SportsRefund.com/Game. Can't Play? Don't Pay. With Sports Refund.
