People in the US die in sports all the time; and they're usually at a rate much higher than sports that you think would be more "dangerous".

not just in sports, but specifically in school sports. middle school kids, under 15 years old... Here at least there is quite a bit of supervision, and while injury is not uncommon, death certainly is. Dying playing ping pong would be like dying in a chess match I would think....
