Sports Accident plans & advice

Sports Accident Plan

When you put your body on the line in sport, it puts you at risk of injury. And when injury happens, it can cost you financially. However, the Sports Accident Plan can help to solve this problem. It gives you cash benefits if you suffer serious injuries or a specified fracture.

What is a Sports Accident Plan

Participating in sports involves the risk of injury and one’s well-being is on the line in the process. Injuries can be detrimental to one’s physical and financial state, requiring time off work and assistance in getting around.

Additionally, there may be equipment repair costs and the possibility of having to replace gear entirely. These costs may deter someone from engaging in sports, which we believe is a disservice to sports enthusiasts. Therefore, we have developed the Sports Accident Plan, which has been designed specifically for sportspeople and offers a range of benefits to help you recover from any potential accidents.

Our aim is to encourage individuals to continue pursuing their love for sports with peace of mind, knowing that they have a reliable source of financial assistance in case of serious injury or accidents. Please refer to our guide or read on for further information on the Sports Accident Plan.
