Sports Coaching Insurance
Protect your business and the children you coach.
Specialist public liability insurance for sports coaches
Our Children's Sports Coaching insurance policy is specifically designed for those who provide guidance, coaching, training and development in single or multiple sports, exclusively for children aged three and over, but under 19, whether you are the sole coach, a group of coaches or an employer.
Whatever you coach, whether it's football, swimming or cheerleading, you should have specialist sports coaching public liability insurance.
Is this the right child's sports coaching policy for me?
If you provide sporting activities for children under the age of three, or simply organise play and physical activity games for children, you may need to look at our Children's Activity Providers insurance.
If you are an out of school or holiday club providing wraparound care and supervised play-led learning, you may need to look at our Out of School Insurance.
