Illinois Swimming Offer for Club Liability Insurance
|
March 27, 2020 |
Dear Illinois Swimming Head Coaches and Club
Presidents-
The Illinois Swimming Board of Directors held a special meeting
this afternoon to address some areas of concern as most teams are
supposed to be prepping for the start of the swim season. One
of the largest concerns teams had in our Zoom meetings over the
last couple of days was how can we run dry land activities and stay
in compliance with our liability policy?
Illinois Swimming is encouraging all teams who plan to run virtual
dryland activities to obtain their own
liability insurance. Illinois Swimming will reimburse
teams up to $400 dollars to obtain (or if they have already
obtained) liability insurance to cover these activities. In
order to receive the reimbursement your club must submit the
invoice showing you applied for liability insurance, the cost and
proof of payment. Submission to receive
reimbursement must take place no later than June 1,
2020. Submission should be sent to Pam Lowenthal
We have been working with HUB International Midwest Limited,
an insurance brokerage firm. They are aware of the situation
we are all facing and are willing to help. If you plan to use
HUB they request the information listed below from each club.
To start the application thru HUB please contact Lisa Adler
1. Legal Entity, FEIN,
Address vs mailing address, Email and Phone
2. Revenue for dryland
only (break out pool vs dry annual revenue)
3. Member count
4. Brief background on the
coach(es) that are going to do the trainings, (certifications,
etc)
By no means are your clubs required to use HUB, and policies from
any broker will be reimbursed. We only give this information
out as a resource since they are aware of our situation and are
willing to work with our swim clubs.
Should you have any questions or concerns please feel free to
contact me directly.
Thank you
Jeff Arce
Illinois Swimming General Chair
