Discover how our latest protection tools can support your members, safeguard your revenue, and simplify operations.

We’re pleased to announce a range of new insurance and protection products to support our clients in making their sports more accessible.

This collection of products is the key element to the ‘Elevate’ pillar of our ‘Empower. Engage. Elevate.’ Q2 delivery strategy, and is a major enhancement to the tools and services available to the Sport:80 Community.

The two most significant of these products are for membership protection and event registration protection.

  • Membership Protection: Give your members the ability to purchase membership protection for a small additional fee when they buy a membership. This would mean that, if they became unable to participate during their membership window (for example, due to injury), they’ll be eligible to apply for a refund on their membership through one of our partners. This would mean that your members can get their money back, but your organisation still gets to keep the original membership fee. This optional cover removes the administrative burden of processing refunds, helps protect your organisation’s revenue, and ensures greater financial clarity by eliminating the uncertainty of unforeseen cancellations.
  • Event Registration Protection: Similarly, our new event registration protection product allows members to add optional cover when registering for events via the Sport:80 Platform. This gives participants peace of mind that they can recover their entry fee if they’re unable to attend due to specified reasons, without your organisation needing to issue a refund directly. Additionally, this will be available for ALL event organisers, and therefore can be sold as a benefit to local organisers (e.g. clubs, venues, etc) who can extend their T&Cs, remove their obligation to issue refunds, and retain their income.

These products will be integrated within the Sport:80 Platform’s member registration, event registration, and post-checkout flows to keep the user experience as simple and seamless as possible.

The new products complement a growing range of protection and insurance offerings available to the Sport:80 Community through our partnerships with both Club Cover Sports and Amsis, including:

  • Club Travel Insurance: Cover for domestic and international sports club travel, with protection for medical expenses, cancellations, lost luggage, and more. Available as an annual plan or on a per-trip basis.
  • Coach Cover: Extended protection for individual coaches or businesses operating outside of their NGB-led activity, including private sessions, PE curricular coaching, after-school clubs and holiday clubs.
  • Youth Participation Insurance (available in the US only): Support for athletes under 25, covering injuries and scenarios that prevent continued participation in sport.

The launch of these products, which come at no cost to the NGB, reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering market-leading services that support sports organisations to elevate member experience with innovative new tools.
