Why should you consider sports club insurance?

Insurance for your clubhouse is an important consideration as it can help to financially protect your sports facilities, you, your employees and sports club members against financial risks, such as:

  • Equipment stored in your premises being stolen or damaged
  • Somebody claiming against one of your coaches for injury or third-party property damage
  • A flood or storm causing serious damage to your building 

Public Liability insurance for sports clubs

Public liability insurance for sports clubs can help financially protect the club following incidents, such as if a sports club member were to injure themselves whilst on the sports club premises and deem the club or one of your employees responsible. It can also cover Employers’ Liability insurance, which is a legal obligation if you employ members of staff in the UK.

Sports club business insurance 

If you were forced to close your sports club unexpectedly because of events out of your control, such as if the sports facilities were impacted by floods or fire, your club could experience a substantial loss of revenue. Business interruption cover could help you cover lost income and manage salaries or rent if your business cannot operate.

  • Public liability insurance can help to financially protect you, your employees, and your athletes if someone gets injured due to your equipment or building or if damage to third-party property occurs. It can also work as financial protection if a member of the public is spectating an event at your club and accidentally gets injured. 

    Therefore, whilst not a legal requirement, it is an important consideration for business owners. 

    If your sports club employs any members of staff, Employers’ Liability insurance is a legal requirement in the UK.
