Parental Concerns

Sending your child on their first Football Amateur Tournament abroad can be a worrying feeling, and it gets asked a lot; here is information that may help ease your mind. 

Cover your child for suitable activities: It's essential to have the correct activities covered by your travel insurance policy, whether attending a Football Amateur Tournament / Football Tour or just going away for a Football Training camp. 

Also, cover for any other activities planned in your child's itinerary to ensure you have suitable cover; we can cover up to 400+ Sports and Activities

What are the main Insurance benefits that you need? 

  • Medical and Repatriation: Cover for £5m if your child gets injured or falls sick whilst playing Football or not abroad. This includes repatriation to the UK if it is medically necessary.
  • Cancellation and Curtailment: This will cover your child who falls sick or gets injured before they travel and any pre-paid accommodation for flights booked. It also covers if your child has to cut short their trip and has to return home.
  • Personal Property / Baggage Cover: All children follow trends and want to look like the next best football star, which can be costly for parents. Our travel insurance policies will cover your personal property, including football boots, kits, and more if lost or stolen in transit or locked storage. 

Children travelling without parents: A typical concern asked by parents is if their child is covered to travel abroad on our travel insurance policies without you; the answer is Yes,

It will be covered if a child travels with an insured adult, such as a football manager or another parent t.

Your Child Safety, Health and Well-being: 

Check The FA website for comprehensive Guidelines for Safety for children on Football Tours 

  • Safety: It's essential to educate your child about the risks of travelling abroad, avoiding dangerous situations and being aware of their surroundings.
  • Health: Make sure your child is fit and healthy to travel, maver your child for any pre-existing medical conditions and educate them on how to stay healthy abroad, such as drinking bottled water, avoiding street food stands, and helping them prepare physically and mentally. 
  • Well-being: Make sure your child has a working phone or a way of contacting you if they are concerned and happy with their surroundings. Be as supportive as you can be without being there. And that their coach /teacher has your telephone number as a parent and child.  

Storing your child's travel insurance documents: printing multiple copies of the travel insurance document, including the 24/7 emergency assistance contact details, is essential. We recommend having one in your hand or holding luggage, giving a copy to the team manager, and saving a copy in your smartphone wallet if possible. 

Who to contact in an emergency: You should get the 24/7 emergency assistance line, which will instruct you on the next steps and arrange medical care. 

Pre-Existing Medical Conditions

If you have pre-existing medical conditions and plan to participate in a Football (Tournament), we can provide you with a policy. 

We have several providers (Adventures) who can offer travel insurance, including Football (Tournament) if you have a pre-existing medical condition.
