There is a common misconception relating to the club insurance cover. Members who join clubs that are affiliated to England Athletics may assume that they also benefit from the public liability cover for accidents that they cause personally when training with the club and that they would be able to claim on the personal accident cover for certain types of serious injury that they may suffer. These assumptions are incorrect.
To gain the benefit of these elements of cover members would seek their own individual insurance members and as such Sittingbourne Striders recommends that all member seek to obtain their own private induvial insurance of personal injury.
