CTA Insurance Programs
Many Community Tennis Associations (CTAs) across the country are faced with budget shortfalls forcing them to identify cost savings wherever possible, without eliminating key tennis programming and services for their community.
The USTA recognizes the need to identify low-cost solutions for community based organizations that promote and develop the growth of tennis. One of these solutions offered to eligible USTA Community Tennis Associations is the USTA Master Liability Insurance Program and the Directors & Officers and Employment Practices Insurance Program.
Each is a professional high quality insurance program offering substantial liability coverage with a discounted enrollment contribution. Read on to learn which program is right for your CTA.
Master Liability Insurance Program
The Master Liability Insurance Program offers up to $3 million in coverage against allegations of negligence resulting from bodily injury or property damage.
This program offers coverage for liability claims such as: injury or death to a player or participant; accidental injury to a bystander or spectator; property damage to the tennis facility or site allegations of libel, slander, abuse or molestation; and the operation of a rented vehicle.
The enrollee contribution level for each CTA is $275 a year for those organizations with an annual budget of $25,000 or less and $700 for those organizations with an annual budget of more than $25,000. You simply will not find such annual coverage at this cost anywhere on the market. After enrolling in either program, organizations have access to a direct toll-free number with dedicated support and assistance with any of their insurance needs.
