Why does my football team or club need insurance?
Football insurance can provide protection should a player, official or public member be injured if property is damaged, destroyed or stolen. Football club insurance can protect the club, its committee and its members if they face legal claims or prosecutions. Clubs may also be required to take insurance as a condition of FA affiliation, membership in a league, or hiring a pitch.
The size of your club or team will dictate what insurance you need, as a small club will have fewer liabilities than a larger club. We can also help you with tours, travel, tournaments, events, and other insurance-related enquiries.
If you are a coach within a club, you will normally be covered by your club policy; if you coach away from your club or as a business, we can also help you with a specific coach’s policy.
What insurance do I need to consider?
Every club, organisation, and race is unique, so no ‘one size fits all’ insurance plan or solution exists. Aside from football insurance, there are some other recommended insurance options for your club, such as:
Public Liability
Personal Accident
Cyber Insurance
Legal Expenses
Kit & equipment
Employers Liability
Event Cancellation
Sports travel insurance
