 General Liability and Sport Accident Insurance Summary
Incident Report Form: (change for 2011-12: Forms to be sent to Region office only) If an injury occurs to a player, spectator, parent, official, volunteer or coach, please be certain this document is fully completed and submitted as quickly as possible to the Delta Region office (fax 870-933-8110) or mail 1102 Laurelwood Court, Jonesboro, AR 72401 or e-mail: reg@deltavolleyball.net.. This form records the specifics of the injury, and the names of witnesses to the injury. With increasing deductibles for health insurance, many on-court injuries requiring surgery and rehabilitation end up costing the athlete's family in excess of $1,000 out-of-pocket expenses. If you have an uninsured athlete, this is a very crtical document. If this form is not completed & submitted in a timely manner, possible coverage may be lost. Tournament directors and their individual site directors should keep these on-site at all events. Club directors should require ALL of their coaching staff to carry blank Incident Reports to all events, including practices & tournaments. Do not assume that "somebody else" will have the form and see it completed & submitted quickly.
Each currently registered Delta Region USA Volleyball member is provided insurance as noted in the summary above. In the world of lawsuits and high cost of medical care it is extremely important that we have the proper coverage for our events. USA Volleyball administers a medical and liability insurance program customized specifically for the sport of volleyball. It is one of the most comprehensive policies available and is designed to respond specifically to the inherent hazards of the sport. Offered as part of the same sanctioning program, it is one of the least expensive programs available
Medical Insurance Claim Form This form can be completed after the extent of the injury and medical care has been determined--this is to be submitted directly by the athlete's family after the medical bills begin to arrive. American Specialty will give the family more details when the insurance claim process has begun.
Certificate of Insurance Request Form For practice facilities or tournaments. Complete & send to Region office--be sure to include facility address. Allow a couple of days for an e-mail reply with a printable certificate.
Extended Officials Coverage (optional) USA Volleyball certified officials can protect themselves against claims of negligence by players or spectators and from personal injury resulting from an accident while officiating non-sanctioned USA Volleyball activities for an additional charge of $6.85. If you officiate volleyball in high school, college or recreational play, this could be an excellent investment.
