What is Sports Accident Insurance?
Sports Accident Insurance is designed to financially protect amateurs and semi-professionals, who are taking part in a sport(s) within the UK.
If you have an accident whilst taking part in a sport in the UK, you want to know that you are protected. Our Sports Accident policy offers financial support when you are in need, from personal accident and legal expenses to income protection for those who need it.
Whilst our Sports Accident insurance is valid worldwide, it does not include cover for medical treatment abroad or repatriation, and so is not a substitute for travel insurance. If you are participating in a sport abroad, our Sports Travel Insurance will likely to be better suited. In addition to the medical benefits, it also provides cover for trip cancellations, trip delays, sports equipment and more.
Both policies can be purchased online in minutes via the “Get a Quote” button above.
What does our Sports Accident Insurance cover?
Sports Accident Insurance includes Personal Liability, which will cover you for accidental injury or property damage to a third party. It will assist you with rehabilitation and recovery following an injury whilst playing your chosen sport, with Income Protection available as an optional benefit.
We have been providing sports accident insurance for over 30 years, so we understand the cover requirements of sporting enthusiasts who wish to be comprehensively protected in the UK.
