What does American Football Insurance cover?

Depending on whether you are playing the sport in the UK or abroad, our American Football Insurance can also cover you for trip cancellation, lost baggage and equipment, and income protection.
Frequently Asked Questions
There is a player to player exclusion under the Personal Liability section of the cover which means that if you injure another player when playing within the normal rules of the sport, for example as a result of a tackle, you would not have any liability cover – i.e. you would not be covered for any claims made against you by the other player. You would be covered for your liability if, for example, you kicked a ball through a window, or it injured a member of the public.
Standard travel insurance policies do not always cover collision sports. Our Sports Travel Insurance is specifically designed to cover over 500 high risk activities such as bungee jumping, skateboarding, ski-acrobatics and many more.
No, unfortunately our policies can not provide cover for professionals. A professional is any person who derives more than £5,000 income per calendar year from their participation in a sport or activity. Benefits received such as free or reduced-cost accommodation, entry fees or clothing are not considered to be income.
Also any person who has a contract of employment (paid or unpaid), a sports scholarship or where their full-time occupation is undertaking the sport / activity.
Yes, our American Football Travel Insurance can generally be taken out even if you have a medical condition. We can almost always offer cover at no extra cost, but occasionally our underwriters may apply special terms if you subsequently needed to make a claim relating to your condition.
