UTR Sports, Emerge Insurance Form Strategic Partnership to Help Pickleball Players

UTR Sports and Emerge Insurance are excited to announce a new partnership that will help pickleball players everywhere make sure they’re covered.

UTR Sports offers a full suite of services for pickleball players and organizations globally. Emerge Insurance provides accidental injury insurance to help pickleball players everywhere cover their costs that a player’s primary health insurance may miss.

Merion, from Valdosta, GA, is a pickleball player who uses Emerge, and said, "Emerge is different, simple and easy compared to the other insurance I have had.”

Gary from Jackson, MS, also prefers Emerge. "I can use the money the way I wanted to use it. And the price was good,” he said.

Madelyn Sheldon, UTR Sports Chief Commercial Officer, said: “We’re excited to partner with Emerge to help make sure players get the coverage they deserve and can get back on the court as soon as possible. While unexpected injuries are a part of any sport, we want to offer players the peace of mind that comes with injury protection. With Emerge, players can ensure they’re covered should an accident happen.”

“Many people are unaware of the gaps in their health insurance coverage, particularly when it comes to deductibles, which can leave them with significant out-of-pocket expenses in the event of an accident,” said Wes Thompson, Founder and Principal of Emerge. “Our Partnership with UTR Sports allows us to provide a valuable service to a community that is passionate about their sport and deserves the peace of mind that comes with knowing they are protected.”
