Adult Sports - Accident Insurance

Archery, Badminton, Basketball, Bowling, Cheerleading, Cross Country, Flag/Touch Football, Fencing, Field Hockey, Golf, Handball, Inline Skating, Rowing, Swimming, Tennis, Track, Volleyball, and Weightlifting
In the past, accident medical coverage for adult sports teams and leagues was either too costly, too limited, or not available at all. Individuals were either forced to pay extremely high insurance premiums or to run teams and leagues without proper insurance protection, therefore running the risk of personal exposure to lawsuits or a participant or staff member's injury claim.
However, now a comprehensive program has been developed to specifically cover the inherent risks involved for today's adult sports teams and leagues. This Accident Medical Insurance Program is designed to help eliminate the financial and emotional burden one can incur as a result of injury in today's athletic arena.
The Accident Medical Coverage
Pays the medical bills of an injured participant or staff member.
Who Is Covered
All participants of the Policyholder are covered while participating in sponsored activities. A member is also covered while traveling, directly and without interruption, to and from any Policyholder sponsored activity and his or her home or place of residence.
Accidental Death & Dismemberment
If a covered injury results in any of the losses specified below within one year after the date of the accident, the Company will pay the applicable amount.
  • Full Principal Sum for loss of life
  • Full Principal Sum for double dismemberment
  • 50% of the Principal Sum for loss of one hand, one foot or sight of one eye
  • 25% of the Principal Sum for loss of index finger and thumb of same hand
If the Principal sum is payable, no indemnity will be paid for dismemberment. In any event, the double dismemberment indemnity is the maximum amount payable under this Benefit for all losses resulting from one accident.
Maximum Medical Expense Benefit
If the Covered Person incurs eligible expenses as the result of a covered injury, the Company will pay the charges incurred for such expense within 52 weeks, beginning on the date of accident. Payment will be made for eligible expenses not to exceed the Maximum Medical Expense Benefit, subject to the applicable deductible amount (if any). The first such expense must be incurred within 60 days after the date of the accident.
