Australian Fencing Federation

What does an Australian Fencing Federation insurance program cover?

Our fencing insurance experts here at Gallagher have worked with the Australian Fencing Federation to create a bespoke National Insurance Program that incorporates Personal Accident Insurance, Public Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance and Association Liability. Gallagher has also created an additional Property Insurance Program that offers a tailored comprehensive insurance option for fencing clubs and centres.

Public Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance

This liability insurance has been tailored to cover Australian Fencing Federation members for all facets of fencing including participation, promotion and organisation. As long as an affiliated club is only involved in activities sanctioned by the Australian Fencing Federation, they generally won't require additional Public Liability cover. However, if a club is operating a commercial fencing facility, they will need additional insurance coverage for this business.

Professional Indemnity covers Australian Fencing Federation accredited coaches and officials against legal and associated costs that may arise in the case of an accusation of negligent acts, errors or omissions.

Personal Accident Insurance

Personal Accident Insurance covers Australian Fencing Federation members who are injured while participating in sanctioned events. Gallagher has achieved great value premiums by conducting a full sporting risk analysis, premium pooling through a national program and a proactive approach to risk management.

Although this Personal Accident Insurance covers standard benefits and sums, we strongly recommend fencers also take out their own insurance. Our fencing specialist brokers can discuss your individual circumstances and the best insurance options for protecting yourself and your future.

Association Liability Program

This policy covers the Australian Fencing Federation's participating affiliated state, league and incorporated club bodies. The cover extends to nominated representatives of these insured bodies, such as directors, trustees, employees and volunteers.

Property Insurance Program

Gallagher has collaborated with the Australian Fencing Federation to create an additional comprehensive insurance option for fencing offices, clubs and centres. Members are invited to join this policy, which provides comprehensive coverage for equipment, offices and property. Specifically tailored to suit the needs of fencing clubs, this policy also includes additional benefits and increased cover limits.
