Details on ABF insurance for clubs
A Public Liability policy has been issued in the name of the ABF, Associated State Bodies & Registered & Affiliated Clubs. The purpose of the policy is to provide Insurance cover in the event that personal injury or property damage occurs as a result of the ABF, etc negligent actions. In the event of a club being disaffiliated by its State body, the ABF's Public Liability insurance will continue to cover that club for a period of 30 days. The period, of 30 days, commences from the date at which the club was advised of the disaffiliation - ie the date on the letter sent to the club. After this period the ABF's policy will no longer be in force. There is a perception with the Public Liability Insurance that the policy covers members for injuries sustained at their clubs. This is not strictly the case. The policy provides cover for claims made against the Clubs for injury to anyone (including members) that may occur as a result of a negligent act or as a result of a failure to act which causes the injury. For example if someone just falls over of their own volition, there would be no liability attaching to the club and no compensation payable as a result of negligent actions of any of the above bodies.
