Why keeping kids playing sports is important
Active kids do better at school and enjoy lifelong rewards in physical, mental, social and economic wellbeing. While the benefits of kids playing sports are well documented, keeping headstrong teens from quitting sports can be challenging.
Kids who play sports do better at school
Australian research shows continued sports participation was associated with improved school performance. It boosts attendance and attention along with literacy, numeracy and year 12 results.
Active kids are physically and mentally healthier
Another Australian study concluded kids and teens who dropped out of organised sports had lower physical activity, greater body fat and greater depression at age 20 than those who continued participation.
Early habits shape lifelong outcomes
Habits formed in childhood and adolescence are crucial in setting up lifelong behaviours. Kids who play sports while growing up are more likely to remain active as adults, leading to improved physical, mental, social, and economic wellbeing for life.
Flip helps bridge the gap with the true cost of an accidental injury
Medicare and private health insurance can cover many health-related costs, but your kid can still be left out of pocket with unforeseen expenses as they recover.

My Flip accidental injury insurance wasn’t turned on at the time of my accident. Can I claim?
No. With Flip accidental injury insurance, you’re covered for a range of accidental injuries that happen while your insurance is active.
This means you’re not covered for anything that happens before your insurance starts or after it ends.
To see when your insurance starts or ends, head to your Flip Dashboard and look for your Certificate of Insurance.
