The Saskatchewan Soccer accident insurance policy is a secondary payable policy. This means if employer coverage exists, the claim must first be made through your employment coverage and then through the Saskatchewan Soccer policy. Check your employment coverage to ensure you receive all eligible benefits. For players under the age of 18 and without employment coverage, claims must first be made through the parent's employment policy.

Liability Insurance

Coverage includes general liability insurance (up to $10,000,000) and directors and officers insurance (up to $5,000,000).

General Liability Insurance

Accidents happen and you can be sued by anyone who claims injury or damages resulting from your activities. You may not be liable, but you will need to be defended in court. The Saskatchewan Soccer liability policy will pay for this defence as well as any costs awarded against you. In short, liability insurance gives you peace of mind.

General liability & Directors and officers

Directors and Officers Insurance

Directors and officers may be sued for actual or alleged errors or omissions while performing their duties as officials of the organization. D&O insurance will pay those sums the organization, directors and officers become legally obligated to pay as compensatory damages because of a wrongful act.

Directors and officers who properly register with the Saskatchewan Soccer as per the Member Rights and Responsibilities Policy, Article 6 noted shall be eligible for coverage under the Saskatchewan Soccer insurance policy.

Process for Completing a Liability Claim

If you have any concerns about a potential liability claim against yourself or your organization, contact Saskatchewan Soccer promptly.
