Award-Winning, Flexible
WRESTLING INSURANCE
- Cover for amateur wrestling
- Financial protection against injury

Our Wrestling Insurance policy options
Put simply, we offer three different policy options…
1. Travel Insurance
Not all standard travel insurance policies will cover you whilst wrestling in a foreign country, our policy does. We provide a range of benefits to keep you financially protected should you require medical assistance.
2. Travel Insurance Bolt-On
If you have a travel insurance policy in place with another provider such as your bank or buildings society but it does not include cover for wrestling, we can provide a bolt-on style of protection for your trip.
3. Sports Accident Insurance
Our Sports Accident Insurance is designed to protect you wrestling in the UK, whether that be for leisure or competition. The policy provides a range of benefits including personal liability and income protection.

Frequently Asked Questions
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 – we don’t consider a wrestling competition to be riskier than doing the activity as a leisure pursuit, so we don’t charge a higher premium for that.
Yes, our Wrestling 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.
Our policies will cover anyone up to the age of 74 at the time of purchase. An applicant aged 75 or over cannot be covered.
