What makes our policy different?
Many standard travel insurance policies will not cover tent pegging as standard and even if they do, there will likely be exclusions for taking part in competitions, making a specialist policy necessary in these cases.
If you or your team are heading overseas to take part in tent pegging, our Sports Travel Insurance will not only cover you for the standard travel eventualities such as trip delays, cancellations and lost baggage but also protects you should you suffer an injury and need medical attention.
Likewise, if you are participating in the UK, our Sports Accident policy can protect you with benefits such as broken bone, personal accident and income protection cover.
Simply select the policy which best suits your needs and you will be instantly covered.
Why do you need Polo Insurance?
We classify tent pegging as high risk and hazardous sport. All equine sports carry a degree of danger and with the weapons the riders carry, that risk is increased.
It is important to take out comprehensive tent pegging insurance when participating in this sport to cover you should you be injured. However, due to the nature of the sport all liability claims are excluded.
