Why is insurance for the play industry important?
Organized sport is often the first social activity that children learn to interact and grow in. As we grow older, sport and fitness remains an important cornerstone in people's livelihood and ability to live a fulfilling and healthy life. We understand the importance of sport and fitness as a means of health and social enrichment. With diverse sport offerings becoming increasingly complex in the risk they present it is important to have a strong insurance partner to ensure those who depend on play for recreation or business are able to do so safely. The Markel Play product offers specialized insurance solutions for every angle of sport and partners with service providers who believe in leading sport governance with integrity and trust, allowing you to continue playing safely.
