Insurance for Coaches

Howden has developed a National Insurance Program to protect registered coaches.

Tennis Australia, in collaboration with our insurance broker, Howden, have developed a National Insurance Program to protect TA registered coach members

Cover for your tennis related activities anywhere in Australia, as and when you need it. 

Program coverage

Sports Injury/Personal Accident Insurance

This insurance is for players that are injured whilst playing tennis or coaching/being coached or being otherwise involved in an approved tennis related activity (please see FAQs page for more information on what constitutes a tennis related activity). It provides benefits for death, permanent disability and loss of income as well as cover for non-Medicare medical expenses and other costs associated with the injury sustained whilst playing or coaching or being otherwise involved in an approved tennis related activity.

Combined Liability (Public & Products Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance)

This type of policy can help protect your tennis coaching against the financial risk of being found liable to a third party for death or injury, loss of or damage to property or ‘pure’ economic loss (i.e. financial loss) resulting from your negligence.

Management Liability Insurance

This covers a range of financial risks for your tennis coaching which arise out of the management of your business and can cover some of the costs associated with employee issues (i.e. stealing funds from your business).
