What about safety?
These sports appear as unsafe or even dangerous, what about insurance?

There are state laws that protect the limit of liability of a public park for injuries. See sports injury
stats below. Our insurance agent has estimated that it may be as little as $800 a year.

U.S. Consumer Safety Commission ranked sports on a mean severity index which ranged from 10 to
2516 (10 = least severe). Swimming pools were given 335, bicycles 70 and skateboarding
34. They also found that irregular riding surfaces accounted for over 50% of the injuries. Skate
parks with smooth surfaces and protective gear have a very low injury rate.

soccer 1.42%
