Insurance for Cricket Clubs

One of the most important and significant issues facing any sporting club these days is that of insurance.  Cricket Clubs are no different.

The whole issue of insurance can be a minefield and unless you know exactly what you’re talking about and dealing with, any policy you take out could very easily fall short of what you expected, if ever it were needed.

That’s where the EXTRA COVER SCHEME from the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) comes in.  It is the ideal way for cricket clubs to insure against a wide range of risks - with the official Club Insurance Scheme of the ECB.

For cricket clubs and leagues Marshall Wooldridge are the official exclusive brokers for the ECB Extracover insurance scheme.

We have previously posted items about some cricket clubs facing serious challenges to their continued existence after finding themselves under-insured after making claims for damage to their property.

As the 2010 season rapidly approaches and in the light of many previous challenges and especially the recent flood damage faced by some cricket clubs, ECB are keen to ensure that all affiliated clubs are adequately insured and at the best available rates.

ExtraCover, the official Club Insurance Scheme of ECB, is the ideal way for cricket clubs to insure against a wide range of risks and all in one simple policy.

The 2010 brochure is now available as is the latest insurance information from brokers Marshall Wooldridge for clubs as they prepare for the summer ahead.
