England Handball Coaches

Cover for your coaching activities

Coaches, referees and officials registered with England Handball receive the benefit of Combined Liability and Personal Accident insurance to protect you whilst participating in handball recognised activity.

Combined Liability insurance 

Public Liability and Professional Indemnity policy covers the cost of defending yourself against a claim for damages if you're held responsible for injury to someone else or damage to their property.

Personal Accident insurance

Personal Accident insurance provides payments to you if you are under 80 years old and are injured whilst taking part in a recognised activity, anywhere in the world.

The cover is 'no fault' which means that they will receive the appropriate payment regardless of the cause of the accident.

FAQs for Coaches

You are covered to coach in any EHA affiliated club, competition or activity approved by the EHA.

Not under the liability insurance, as you can't claim for damage to your own property.

Professional indemnity provides cover following negligent advice. If you are a coach with EHA, this cover will protect you in the event that an injury results from a negligent act or omission in your coaching.

There have been cases of members of sports clubs having disputes. Posts on websites and contained in emails could be potentially libellous, for example, and this section of cover may protect you if it is alleged that you have defamed someone else.

If someone is injured or their property is damaged whilst you are coaching you should report the details to Howden and EHA as soon as possible. Click here for details.

We believe that £10m is the minimum amount of cover to provide you with peace of mind in the event that you were held responsible for causing a catastrophic injury to someone. We have already seen sports related claims that have exceeded £10m.
