Extreme Sports Insurance FAQs
  • The cost of extreme sports insurance through Insure4Sport varies depending on the type of sport or activity you participate in and your chosen level of cover. You can get a quick online quote to learn the cost of your policy.

  • Extreme sports on travel insurance typically refer to activities that carry a higher risk of injury or accident than standard outdoor pursuits. Common examples include skydiving, scuba diving, snowboarding, skateboarding, and mountain biking.

    These activities are not usually covered by standard travel insurance, so you may want to consider a specialist extreme sports insurance policy to stay protected against injuries, accidents, or equipment damage while participating.

  • The quickest way to find out whether your chosen activity is covered by extreme sports insurance through Insure4Sport is to get a free online quote.

  • Yes, you can participate in competitions, but only on a non-professional level.

  • If you’re a coach, you’re covered up to the level that you are qualified or experienced to teach. If your qualifications state that you can only coach persons over 16 years of age, for example, this is what you are covered for. If your qualification does not have any restrictions on who you can teach, then you’re covered to coach all ages, provided that the client is old enough to follow your instructions in training.

    There are no age restrictions on cover for participants. 

  • If you want to insure multiple coaches, you must list them when you take out your extreme sports insurance policy, as only people who are listed will be covered.
