LOL at nordic skiing being high, unsupported risk. This list is some stupid insurance nerdiness.
That’s one that stuck out to me too. Nordic skiing is basically the skiing equivalent of cross country. It’s not really that high risk at all.LOL at nordic skiing being high, unsupported risk. This list is some stupid insurance nerdiness.
Don't get me wrong, there is risk. Nordic skis are sketchy when you have to navigate a downhill, but to put it in the highest risk category - over sports like lacrosse, hockey and rugby - is ludacris.That’s one that stuck out to me too.

I mean, how much money do these clubs even get from Rec Services? As far as I can tell, no one is saying you can't have a club, it's just that Rec Services aren't going to sponsor it. Definitely liability is behind it, but I'm guessing it's not much that these clubs are losing out on.I suspect cutting back is kind of the ISU thing right now.
One piece mentioned a lack of staffing to supervise some of these events. They aren't likely to go hiring enough people for that, so stuff's gonna go.
Sounds Victorian. Maybe lift tea cups and do an Aaron Rodgers cleanse?WTF is ladies in fitness
I know of multiple concussions, ACL, MCL tears, broken leg, broken arm, fractured cheek bone in just the girls daughter has played with. So yes, I can see them saying high risk. Probably higher risk than nordic ski.Let's see. I played 5 years of soccer and suffered one slight concussion. And that's high risk? What is this world coming to? The worst injury I witnessed in soccer was a broken leg by some fool on another Big 8 team by getting his cleat stuck in the turf. I swear. We're going to legislate ourselves to death.

That's low risk? Have they not seen what a bludger can do?I laughed reading quidditch.
Saw lot of injuries playing club soccer and the years before college. High risk for injury but very low risk for permanent injury or death.I know of multiple concussions, ACL, MCL tears, broken leg, broken arm, fractured cheek bone in just the girls daughter has played with.

The timing of this is kind of funny to me. Just a couple of weeks ago daughter went on a visit to ISU. I swear they brought up a dozen times or more that there are over 900 clubs at ISU to participate in. At this rate there won't be near that many by the time daughter goes to ISU - if she does.
When I showed her this list as a nordic skiier she was surprised, but she was pissed when she saw fishing on there.
