The Short Answer
Florida youth sports organizations must meet insurance requirements set by individual parks departments, school boards, and facility operators. While there is no single statewide sports insurance law, the practical requirement is nearly universal across the state.
Florida's hot and humid climate means year-round sports activity, which creates year-round liability exposure. General liability, accident medical, and abuse & molestation coverage are the baseline requirements for most Florida sports programs.
Florida has a significant litigation environment. Sports organizations should carry at minimum $1 million per occurrence in general liability, with umbrella coverage strongly recommended for larger programs. Florida also has specific requirements for organizations working with minors under the Florida Athletic Agent Act and related statutes.
