Players Health, a leading provider of athlete safety and insurance solutions, announced yesterday a first-of-its-kind insurance partnership with Teamworks, “the Operating System for Sports™ powering 99% of D1 athletic departments and more than 6,500 elite sports teams globally.” This partnership integrates Players Health’s insurance quote generation capabilities into Teamworks’ General Manager (GM) contracting workflow, enabling athletic departments to seamlessly assess insurance options in real-time as they build and manage student-athlete agreements in a rapidly evolving college sports landscape. The companies claimed the development marks the first integration of its kind in college athletics software, creating efficiency in the planning process while removing traditional barriers between compensation planning and risk assessment. By pairing Teamworks’ scenario planning and budget modeling with Players Health’s custom insurance solutions, athletic departments from all Power Four conferences (Atlantic Coast Conference, Big Ten Conference, Big 12 Conference, and Southeastern Conference), the Big East, Pac-12, and others can approach compensation more strategically, finding new ways to stretch budgets, protect investments, and ensure athlete safety.
