Many standard travel insurance policies will not cover walking football 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 become injured whilst playing walking football abroad, our Sports Travel Insurance could help you to focus on getting better and back in the game. The policy will include cover for emergency medical expenses and repatriation, cancellations, equipment cover and much more.
