Personal Accident and Public Liability Insurance

ALL adult and youth clubs MUST purchase public liability insurance and personal accident insurance to participate in East Riding FA sanctioned competitions. The FA National Game Insurance provider is Bluefin Insurance and you will have the option to purchase their products during the affiliation application process. If you would like to use another provider, you can do so by uploading the appropriate documents to the WGS when prompted to do so.

What is the National Game Insurance Scheme (NGIS)?

In 2011, The FA set out to raise the standards of insurances that could be made available to its affiliated members, to enable access to a uniformity of cover across the grassroots game that hadn’t been seen before.

The overarching objective for the NGIS has been to ensure that insurance products, specifically tailored to the needs of grassroots football, could be made available to all.

In 2012, Bluefin Sport was appointed by The FA to deliver the NGIS.

The NGIS provides two core covers – Public Liability and Personal Accident.

It is compulsory for all affiliated clubs to have public liability insurance and all affiliated teams to have personal accident insurance.

When affiliating to East Riding FA via the Whole Game System, Clubs may choose to opt-in to the NGIS public liability insurance.

Personal accident insurance can be purchased from Bluefin Sport online, or by completing an application form and returning it to them in the post, with a cheque in remittance of the premium payable.

Details of the minimum cover required by East Riding FA can be found on the Bluefin Sport website, please click here.

Clubs have the option to purchase the compulsory insurances either via the NGIS or elsewhere. Other products are available and independent advice can be sourced from a licensed insurance broker.
