Amateur Sports Facilities

Nuts & Bolts: Philadelphia Insurance Cos. announced the release of an insurance program for amateur sports facilities. The policy provides coverage for facilities where amateur and youth sport leagues or teams lease space for practice and games.

Stadiums would include any outdoor facility, including practice fields, where football, baseball, soccer and lacrosse are played.

Dollars: General liability limits are available up to $2 million; umbrella liability limits of up to $10 million are available. Large in-house property capacity exists that allows the company to write virtually any amateur sports facility that meets underwriting standards. Interest-free installments are available for accounts that generate at least $5,000 in premium. No minimum premium; $1,000 is minimum retention.
