Public Liability

All clubs and leagues should do everything reasonable to ensure they do not cause injury or financial loss to anyone or damage to property. If an incident causes injury, loss or damage and member negligence can be proven, they can become legally liable to pay compensation.

England Netball has arranged liability protection for clubs and leagues who are members of England Netball.

The Public Liability cover provides a limit of indemnity of £10m for any one event (in the aggregate in respect of products liability). This includes member-to-member cover, to covers cases where you injure another player or member of the club and they claim against you alleging you were negligent in your actions.

 

Professional Indemnity Insurance

Professional Indemnity Cover is now included should a claim for compensation be made against you for financial loss allegedly caused by negligent errors or omissions in advice that you have provided. This includes defamation cover. The limit of indemnity is £10m for any one event.

Management Liability Directors and Officers Liability

As a committee, board member or trustee of a Club, Region, County or League, you have a personal liability for any claim that is made against you as a result of a breach of duty in that role.

For your protection, the England Netball Insurance includes Directors and Officers Liability insurance to cover this personal liability, up to a maximum of £5million in any one claim or per policy year.

Examples of such a breach of duty could include:

  • Mismanagement of club finances
  • Breach of fire safety regulations
  • Corporate manslaughter

Employers Liability

Cover has been arranged to protect clubs in respect of claims brought against them by employees who are injured in the course of their employment.

This includes claims brought by volunteers when they are working on behalf of the club and are injured as a result of their duties. The limit of indemnity is £10m for each and every claim (£5m in respect of claims for terrorism).
