A-G & Sparta Science’s Partnership

National Intercollegiate Sports Programs benefit from strategic partnership

August 3, 2020 – Valley Forge, PA — A-G Specialty Insurance, the sports insurance leader that provides superior solutions to managing the risks associated with student-athlete medical expense programs, is partnering with Sparta Science. Sparta Science is the leader in the application of movement diagnostic software. Using Force Plate Machine Learning (FPML), the Sparta System identifies how you move, and provides individualized, evidence-based plans to help you move better.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, student-athletes are experiencing unprecedented time away from sport, resulting in an increased risk of musculoskeletal injuries upon return. A-G and Sparta are working together to provide a solution that will help measure an individual’s readiness for sport, injury risk, and return-to-play timelines.

Sparta will be offering 10 hours of testing to all current A-G clients. When bundled together, A-G and Sparta can provide up to 48% reduction in surgeries and a possible 45% annual reduction in insurance claims associated with injuries*.

“This is an extraordinary time in the history of sport. With student-athletes returning to activity after such an extended time away, the data suggests a 3-4 time increase in soft tissue injury and the medical expenses that result from it.” commented A-G Specialty Insurance’ Chief Marketing Officer, James Shipp, ATC. “A-G is thrilled to partner with Sparta to assist our clients in mitigating these risks and potential expenses.”

A-G Specialty Insurance currently works with a majority of the NCAA’s Power 5 conference institutions and is a trusted advisor in the evolving sports insurance and medical expense industry. While providing insurance solutions to over 425 colleges & universities, 750+ K-12 schools and 3,000+ youth sports organizations, A-G Specialty Insurance has become well known for continually advancing technologies that support best-in-class customer service and superior claims savings.

“Partnering with Sparta Science enhances our reach to provide our clients and prospective clients a combination of superior service, a unique technology-driven solution, and best-in-class savings,” remarked Shipp.

“Sparta Science is adamant about leveraging science and technology to provide protection and prevention for athletes,” added Doug Padron, ATC Senior Sports Strategist at Sparta Science. “We only align ourselves with partners who believe the same and we are excited to be working with A-G Specialty Insurance.”
Sparta Science is the leader in the application of movement diagnostic software.
