It is important to take out this policy. Many National Sporting Organisations (NSOs) and State Sporting Organisations (SSOs) do not have insurance policies that cover Sports Trainers. Check with your relevant organisation to see what insurance cover they provide for Sports Trainers. 

Membership gives you 12 months of insurance cover and is current from date of payment. 

IMPORTANT: It is the policy holder’s responsibility to ensure their SMA Sports Trainer Accreditation is current. The insurance policy is only valid whilst the policy holder’s SMA Sports Trainer accreditation is current. The policy is void at any period during which the policy holder’s SMA Sports Trainer Accreditation lapses.
