Why do you need swimming club insurance?
Managing a swimming club demands a significant level of commitment. A key aspect of this role is ensuring the safety of members and maintaining the club’s financial stability. Despite your best intentions, unforeseen incidents can arise.
Swimming club insurance offers vital protection for your organisation against potential claims. With this cover, you can confidently focus on the successful operation of your club, meet safety obligations for members and the public, and protect the club from substantial financial risks.
Below are several scenarios highlighting the importance of having swimming club insurance:
Cover against claims from public injury.
Swimming clubs often host events, competitions, or tournaments where spectators are present. In the event that a spectator is injured or their property is damaged while on the club’s premises, public liability insurance provides protection against potential legal claims.
A volunteer suffers a workplace accident.
One of your volunteers gets injured while setting up for a tournament and requires medical leave. If your club doesn’t have appropriate insurance, you might face legal action and compensation claims.
Employers’ Liability Insurance covers claims related to work-related injuries or illnesses among your staff and volunteers. This not only ensures legal compliance but also demonstrates your club’s commitment to supporting and protecting those who contribute to its success.
Avoid losses from expensive sports equipment.
After a major event, you discover that several pieces of expensive sports equipment have been stolen or damaged. Replacing these items out-of-pocket would strain your club’s budget.
Sports equipment cover can avoid costly replacements in case your equipment is damaged or stolen.
Our experts explain why...
“We have adapted our product offering to recognise the changing demands of sports clubs, so we can make sure, whatever you are offering to your customers or members, we can provide you financial protection. Our insurance offering doesn’t just cover your Public Liability concerns but also those that might come from suggested negligent advice and tuition, through our Professional Indemnity extension, which we offer at no additional charge.”

Frequently
Asked Questions
Do I need Employers’ Liability for a sports club?
As a club owner or manager, you will need employers’ liability insurance if you are employing anybody, whether they are a paid member of staff or volunteers. Employers’ liability will protect you against any claims from your employees (including volunteers) who have been injured or become seriously ill as a result of working with you. Employers’ liability can be included in any sports club insurance policy with Protectivity.
What is Professional Indemnity for sports clubs?
Professional indemnity, or sometimes known as professional liability, will protect your sports club or association for any advice, tuition or instruction which has been given by a suitably qualified member of your staff.
Do I need Public Liability Insurance for a sports club?
All our club insurance policies include public liability as standard. This means that you will be protected from any third-party claims made against you, whether that is accidental injury to another person or damage to third party property, and/or claims made by any members of the club. All individuals who take part in sport and recreation have a duty of care to ensure they do not cause personal injury, financial loss, or damage to property. If their actions do cause injury, loss or damage and “negligence” can be proved, they become liable to pay for compensation as a result of their actions.
What type of clubs do you insure?
We can insure the following clubs: running clubs, football clubs, golf clubs, dance clubs, martial arts clubs, cricket clubs, ramblers clubs and associations, tennis clubs, fishing clubs and many more. If you have any questions regarding your club just give us a call on 01494 887909 and we’ll be happy to talk through your club’s needs with you.
