Clinics, Tournaments, Sports Camp Insurance
In the past, insurance coverage for Sports Camps, Clinics and Tournaments was either too costly, too limited or not available at all. Schools, coaches and directors were either forced to pay extremely high insurance premiums, or to run camps and clinics without the proper insurance protection, therefore running the risk of personal exposure to lawsuits or a participants injury claim.
Kids love to go to camp and enjoy their favorite sports, explore the outdoors, or hang out with their friends from the youth group. As the supervisor or director of the camp, you have more than fun to think about. You have to make sure everyone is safe and you need to protect yourself from potential liabilities and lawsuits. When you have the proper camp insurance you can be as carefree and happy as the campers.
One of the most popular types of summer camps is a sports camp. Many colleges, schools and local organizations offer a variety of sports camps, such as basketball, soccer, football, volleyball and so on. These policies normally include group accidental medical coverage that is customized to the specific sport. Some camps may also require waivers to be signed by participants if there is a reasonable expectation of injury.
Basketball camps are particularly popular. Participants in basketball camps can have a range of ages and abilities. These events can be in a day-camp format or a sleepver-type camp for high school-aged players looking to develop skills for college recruiters. Camps may be run by athletes, coaches, or volunteers from the community. Make sure if you’re running a basketball camp, you’ve considered purchasing adequate medical coverage for your staff and participants, as well as general liability insurance for the court, the locker-room, and any lodging you might be offering.
Obviously, a participant at golf camp does not have as a high a risk for a major injury as a camper at a full-contact football camp. All these injury risks are taken into consideration and can affect the cost of the insurance you need. Some injuries due to high risk activities may be excluded on some policies, so be sure to consult with your Allen Financial Insurance agent for details.

Three Kinds of Camp Risk:
Protecting Campers, and Staff with Accident Medical Insurance
Kids will be kids. Accidents often happen at camp, but an accidental medical group insurance policy can provide compensation for the appropriate medical care when that time comes. Group accidental medical coverage usually covers injuries or sicknesses that happen while at camp, or injuries and sicknesses that start at camp but continue for an extended period of time afterwards.
Some policies will cover dental injuries as medical expenses. These policies normally come in two packages: a primary medical coverage and one that pays excess benefits for those already insured by individual personal insurance.
