Oy. Uninsured Sister Plans to Join Roller Derby Team.
Seriously.
I love my sister to death, but I just don't get her. She is 23, how stupid can she be?

Re: Oy. Uninsured Sister Plans to Join Roller Derby Team.
I have several friends who are on Roller Derby teams, even 2 sisters who are thinking of joining, and you aren't allowed to join UNLESS you have medical coverage, or sign up for coverage through the team/league's plan. Unless she's joining a team that does not follow the same rules as the 3 different teams my friends are on (members of the Women's Flat Track Derby Ass'n) she'll need to get this medical coverage.
Here's a link to the WFTDA's insurance info page. http://wftda.com/resources/insurance
I think the coverage is like $55/year for medical coverage for the bouts and training injuries. Other injuries/illness isn't covered under the team plan- but they can also help getting comprehensive coverage.
If she's planning on playing for team that doesn't require insurance, I'd question her sanity, and the team's legality.
This makes me feel SO much better. I will definitely be passing this info on to her, thanks!
