Key Facts about our service

Rugby Insurance


SportsCover Direct specialises in insurance for active people. Rugby is one of the major sports we cover. Every year we cover thousands of Rugby players and teams for playing in the UK and when they go abroad on a Rugby tour. Not only do we cover individuals and teams but we also cover competition as a standard policy benefit.

 

At SportsCover Direct we understand that Rugby can be a very high risk activity, and the fault for damage or injury might not be yours. With this in mind, we have developed insurance policies to meet your needs; whether you are travelling abroad, wanting protection at home or are worried about loss of earnings we can cover you.

SportsCover Direct offers two types of Rugby policy for individuals, who are UK or Irish residents, to participate as amateurs.


For amateur rugby players requiring sports accident insurance SportsCover Direct offer SportsGuard

 

 

Endorsed by the Rugby Football Union’s insurers Marsh UK, SportsGuard is a scheme that an increasing number of amateur Rugby players use to increase their personal accident and sports injury protection to insure against the financial effects of a rugby injury.

The SportsGuard scheme is an annual policy offering 24 hour worldwide sports accident cover.

 

SportsGuard Benefits can include:

 

  • Physiotherapy cover
  • Loss of Earnings cover if unable to work due to accident resulting in bodily injury
  • Personal Liability Protection
  • Legal expenses in event of liability action
  • Personal Accident Benefits
  • Rehabilitation cover following accident resulting in bodily injury
  • Full cover for all Rugby activities and cover for all other sports in groups 3, 2 and 1

The RFU advise that “Amateur sports personal accident insurance is a cost-effective way to ensure individuals are compensated in the unfortunate event of an accident resulting in a bodily injury.”
