Sports Club Insurance
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.
