USA Ultimate sanctioned, series and insured events are protected through the USA Ultimate liability policy which provides coverage for USA Ultimate committee members and volunteers, registered coaches and officials, registered athletes, USA Ultimate teams and USA Ultimate leagues all while acting in their capacity as such on USA Ultimate business.
Event managers may only request insurance certificates for UASU sanctioned events, series events or events that have been approved through the Insurance Program.
To complete the insurance request forms:
• Review a summary of the USAU insurance policy
• Review the following tips
| Tips for Completing the Insurance Request Form |
Organization/Entity: Complete this if the certificate you require is for an entity such as, The City of Boulder Parks and Recreation Department. If the certificate is for an individual and not an entity, then leave this blank.
Contact: Enter the name of the person being insured (e.g. the name of the event manager) OR the contact associated with the entity listed.
Relation to Event: Answer the question, how is the entity or contact person related to the event? Often they are the event organizer, field provider or vendor.
Address: Certificates of insurance will not be issued without complete address of the individual or entity.
Specific Wording: Check with any entities requiring insurance and ask for specific wording that they may require (see tips below). Any specific wording would be listed here. For example, some entities may require that the form say verbatim, “The State of XX (fill in state), the Trustees of the XX (fill in state) State University and the employees, officers, and agents of each are listed as Additional Insured as respects to the event XXXX (fill in event name) to be held XX and XX (fill in dates.”
Certificate Holder: The USAU liability policy automatically provides coverage for USAU committee members and volunteers, registered coaches and officials, registered athletes, USAU teams and USAU leagues, tournaments and practices (all while acting in their capacity as such on USAU business) and can be identified as certificate holders. Certificate holders will be issued a certificate of insurance as proof of coverage.
Additional Insured: Any other entities apart from the above named (under the certificate holders section) requesting to be covered by this policy must be listed as an additional insured. Those identified as an additional insured will be issued a certificate of insurance as proof of coverage.
Please select only one of the options between certificate holder and additional insured. Certificates showing proof of insurance will be issued to all entities/people identified.
