Headquartered at 200 Jefferson Park, Whippany, NJ, the division underwrites and administers specialty insurance programs for amateur and recreational sports organizations, golf courses and clubs, health and fitness facilities, resident and day camps, and university recreation programs.

The product portfolio comprises seven core sports insurance lines — Accident, Crime, Cyber Liability, Directors & Officers, Equipment, Event Cancellation, and General Liability — packaged into five specialty programs: USA Softball (as the organization's official insurance provider), Golf Courses & Clubs, Health & Fitness, Resident & Day Camps, and the URMIA university program. Standard General Liability limits are $1M per occurrence / $3M aggregate, and event-cancellation coverage is individually underwritten against the expenses or revenues being protected. The division maintains affiliations with industry associations including ACA, CCCA, and CODA, and holds partnerships with URMIA and USA Softball.

RPS Bollinger generates revenue primarily through insurance premiums collected via its nationwide broker network of 1,000+ independent agents, with additional direct-to-consumer online purchase capability for selected products. Pricing is quote-based and individually underwritten; no public pricing is disclosed. As a private program division of a strategic parent, the business has no disclosed funding rounds, leadership changes, M&A activity, or public financial reporting.
