There aren't any insurance carriers anywhere in the United States who offer insurance to cover football so they are all self-insuring.

When I was the starting QB for my high school I had to sign a waiver saying I'd be responsible for any injuries.

I can tell you that my badminton, fencing, lacrosse, and jai alai squads were all fully covered. Oh how i miss breaking the collective will of those crumb bums from East Cape Finishing School.

Parents health care.
Unless you can prove some negligence on someone then go after the school/ school boards insurer

When I was in high school (2007-2010), we would sign up for Sports Medicine if I remember correctly. That would cover any doctor's appointments that were sports related. I tore my ACL my sophomore year and I don't think my parents had to pay for any medical expenses.

Student-athletes must be enrolled in health insurance policies and are required to cover expenses that insurance does not. The NCAA's catastrophic injuries insurance policy only kicks in when damages exceed $90,000.

Guess it depends on the school or district.
Rugby at all ages is covered as supplemental catastrophic insurance under USA Rugby.
