INSURANCE INFORMATION

 

This is a summary only and all statements contained here are subject to the policy

General Accident Insurance 

All current members of ASSA, through the annual club affiliation and swimmers registration fees, are automatically covered during the current swim season for regular season activities, training sessions, sanctioned swim meets and practices. Coverage is in effect as long as the member remains in good standing with ASSA/Swim Alberta.

To be insured for extra club activities, such as:

  • Barbeques
  • Fundraising events (bottle drives, etc.)
  • Parades
  • Year end parties

clubs MUST complete a Notice of Event - Insurance Request Form as these activities fall outside the normal day-to-day activities of a swim club and need approval of the insurance company to be covered. Events that include the sale or consumption of alcohol are not covered.

Please note

  1. The Swim Alberta insurance policy is limited to coverage for swimmers, coaches, officials and volunteers, actiong in an official capacity on behalf of a member club. Parents and siblings are not covered unless covered under the volunteer category, e.g. chaperone.

  2. Requests for extra activities coverag must be submitted at least three weeks in advance of the club event, to ensure proper processing.

  3. Each Year, in May, every swim club is provided with a new Declaration Certificate - renewal date April 4.
