Coming Soon for 2015! Individual Athlete Insurance
Do you train alone or race outside of Ontario? Not part of a sanctioned club? We have a new insurance product available for the 2015 season that will appeal to you. One of the major benefits of Triathlon Ontario membership is the Liability and Sport Accident insurance policies that you are covered under when you participate at sanctioned races or sanctioned club events. We recognize that for those triathletes who go long and don’t race very often or train by themselves or with groups that aren’t part of a sanctioned clubs, the insurance coverage is less appealing.New for 2015, for just an additional $10 on top of your low membership fee, you can purchase that same $5 million Liability and $50,000 (up from $20,000 in 2014) Sport Accident policies and be covered 24/7, worldwide while you train or race, no sanctioning required. We still strongly encourage everyone to join a club as the benefits of a club membership are still as valuable as ever (discounted TriOnt membership, social and community benefits, access to coaching/training support).
