Insurance

Player Personal Accident Insurance – Are you covered?
One of the most important benefits of registering with Tennis Tasmania is access to individual player accident insurance. This ensures coverage while participating in any competition organised by an affiliated body. Tennis Tasmania Personal Accident Membership policy is designed to compensate Tennis Tasmania members for related expenses and costs of an injury, which has been sustained whilst engaging in the sport of tennis.

When am I covered?
Cover applies when participating in official and/or sanctioned tennis events. This includes competitions, tournaments, and training, performing voluntary work for the club, attending social functions and travelling to and from such events.

When does my cover commence?
Providing a Tennis Tasmania Registration fee has been paid to your club, association or centre, cover is deemed to have commenced. Your club or association will need to be able to verify receipt of fees and information from the books of accounts to Tennis Tasmania in the event of a claim.

When am I not covered?
You are not covered for sickness unless sustained from your injury, if you are an employee of the club or association or centre (Workers Compensation), if your injury resulted from a pre-existing injury, if you are under 5 years of age of older than 85 years of age, or if injured during a non-sanctioned and/or unofficial event.

How do I make a claim?
