Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, Club fundraising activities are automatically covered under the National Insurance Program. These automatic coverage inclusions would cover things such as Bunnings BBQ’s, Christmas parties or Come and Try days.

If however, your proposed activity involves any of the following please contact Marsh to ensure that cover can be confirmed with the insurer prior to the activity: 4WD rallies, jumping castles, water activities, aircraft, fireworks, livestock, rides of any kind, large crowds or events involving security personnel.

No, you will be issued with a claim number shortly after the claim has been lodged. This claim number can then be used on any further documentation that needs to be submitted to Sportscover in order to support your claim.

Subject to the policy limits and sub-limits you can make more than one claim during the policy period. It is important however, that you obtain a clearance from your treating physician prior to returning to training and/or competition.

Negligence is doing something without a reasonable amount of care, or failing to do something which might reasonably have been done to prevent the incident.

When you give your time and energy to a club, you want to make certain you’re not risking your personal or the organisation’s financial security. Therefore, a Management Liability insurance policy can help provide protection for you and the organisation in the event of legal action if sued for:

  • Negligence, libel, slander, defamation, discrimination, etc.
  • Employment related matters (unfair dismissal)
  • Club Management Liability can also cover some of the costs associated with an employee stealing funds from the club.

A Management Liability policy has important exclusions that you should be aware of including but not limited to:

  • Fraud – any claim in consequence of a deliberate fraudulent act
  • Insolvency – financial impairment of the insured organisation
  • Known dishonesty
  • Losses sustained from accounts at banks where only one signatory is required for transactions

Management Liability insurance is ONLY available to incorporated entities! If your club is not incorporated, individual committee members run the risk of exposing their home, car and financial assets.

Directors and Officers: Legal action is taken against the club for defamation of a club member. This came about as a result of information printed in the monthly club newsletter.

Employment Practices: Legal action is taken against the club for the unfair dismissal of a senior coach.

Employee Theft: The club treasurer has been stealing money from the accounts over a period of time and the club now needs to claim the losses.

  • Doctor’s Fees
  • Surgeon’s Fees
  • Anaesthetist Fees
  • X-rays
  • Public hospital costs
  • MRI Scans

You can’t claim if you …

  • Participate against medical advice
  • Have a pre-existing injury
  • Are under the influence of alcohol or drugs
  • Are involved in a criminal act
  • Have a pre-existing illness or disease (i.e. cancer, heart condition)

No, insurers are unable to pay claims already covered under Medicare, including the Medicare gap in accordance with the Health Insurance Act (Cth) 1973.

A $50 excess is applicable for each and every non-Medicare medical treatment or emergency transport claim in accordance with the policy terms and conditions.

Yes, the two policies will work together. You need to lodge a claim with your private health insurer first, then submit your claim via Sportscover. Costs that exceed your private health cover may be insured via the National Rifle Association of Australia Ltd policy. We suggest you contact Sportscover on 1300 134 956 for further details.
