Sports Club Insurance for All UK Organisations
Sports club insurance is a specialised insurance package designed to provide cover for sports clubs against a range of risks such as accidents, falls, trips, third party damages, and damage or theft of equipment.
What is Sports Club Insurance?
Sports club insurance is a specialised insurance designed to provide financial protection for your sports club if someone claims they were injured or a third party claims their property was damaged at the fault of your club.
Your club may have invested in specialist equipment such as goals, nets, bats, racquets, footballs, rugby balls, sports kits, computers, phones, cameras, electronic equipment, and lighting. Protecting this equipment against fire, theft and water damage could therefore be an important consideration for your sports club.
If your club employs staff, employer’s liability insurance is a legal requirement.
Whether you are a football club, cricket club, bowls club, martial arts club, running club, rugby club or badminton club, it is crucial to seek independent advice to make sure you get the correct food delivery insurance to suit the way your business operates.

- Theft/damage to equipment.

Sports club insurance packages are designed specifically to protect sports clubs from financial loss in the event of claims from members, employees or third parties for injury or having their property damaged in connection with your club.
As well as offering insurance for sports teams, Alexander Swan offer specialist cover for other businesses in the leisure industry such as shop/retail insurance, cafe insurance, ice cream van insurance and catering van insurance.
