What do we enjoy about working with sports clubs?
Padel – What Type of Insurance Do You Need?
What type of cover do I need for my sports club or facility?
Cover will vary depending on your club’s needs but it’s most likely to be Public Liability Insurance, Employer’s Liability (if there are staff), Property Insurance, Business Interruption, Cyber Insurance, and Legal Expenses.
As every sports club is different, we don’t provide a ‘one fits all solution’. We learn about your sports club and facility and provide a tailored insurance solution to meet your needs.
What information do you need to get a Sport Club Insurance Quote?
To provide a quote, we will need information such as membership size, details of the club’s activities, any properties, claims history, staff numbers and turnover. This is an example of some of the information that we may need but not limited to only this.
What type of sports club and facilities can you arrange insurance for?
We can arrange insurance for football clubs, rugby clubs, cricket clubs, tennis clubs, martial arts, leisure centres, golf courses, padel and much more.
If we haven’t listed your activity, don’t hesitate to get in touch to see if we’re able to help.
Do I need Employer's Liability Insurance?
If you have any employees, full time, part time, employer’s liability insurance is a legal requirement. Failing to have cover can lead to you being fined.
Why might a sports club or facility might need professional indemnity insurance?
If you offer coaching or lessons, professional indemnity insurance might be a policy to think about. It can provide protection towards any claims of negligence, errors, omissions or breach of duty from your clients.
Is there an insurance policy to help protect the board of directors or management of the club?
Yes, Directors & Officers Insurance or Management Liability Insurance is most likely to be the most suitable policy, it will depend on the structure of your sports club.
This type of policy can help provide cover for a ‘wrongful act’ such as an actual or alleged error, omission, misleading statement, neglect or breach of duty.
