Our Wheelchair Basketball Insurance policy options

2. Travel Insurance Bolt-On
If you have a travel insurance policy with another provider, such as your bank, but it does not include cover for wheelchair basketball, we can provide a bolt-on style of protection under our Activity TopUp policy.
3. Sports Accident Insurance
Our Sports Accident Insurance is designed to protect you for taking part in wheelchair basketball in the UK. Our policy provides a range of benefits including cover for serious injury, and if selected, will include income protection.
