I am pretty sure that my state has coverage for all games in and out of high school in the sports we are registered to work. So if something were to happen, you are covered for games that are not normal games. Now that might change based on the type of insurance you have. And there could be some basic coverage that you would just as if you are doing the same sport. I would check this out, but my understanding of my state insurance plan, which is not with the NF covers all levels of the sport.
