Frequently asked questions

Clear answers before you decide.

The most important questions at a glance. The full FAQ contains further details.

Open full FAQ
What does organiser liability insurance cover?

It examines claims, defends unjustified claims and pays justified claims within the agreed scope.

Are participants, marshals and helpers automatically insured against accidents?

No. The insured group, period of cover and benefits must be agreed expressly.

Is “participation at your own risk” sufficient?

No. A waiver is legally sensitive, does not replace reasonable safety measures and must be coordinated with the policy, regulations and registration process.

What limit of indemnity is appropriate?

The limit should reflect serious personal injury and incidents involving several injured persons. A risk analysis is required.

Is the after-race party automatically covered?

No. Catering, music, alcohol, security, visitor numbers and duration must be disclosed.
