Why Does My Group Need Why Does My Group Need Insurance?Insurance?

Just like a business, your Booster Club is exposed to risks.Booster Club’s are not immune from liability. In the past, many school insurance policies have covered

Booster Club’s, but today less than 5% are covered under the school’s insurance policy.

Your Booster Club insurance policy will protect not only the assets of the Booster Club, but the personal assets of its members. In the event of a lawsuit, your Booster Club insurance will also pay attorney fees to defend you, whether the lawsuit has merit or not.

CONSTANT TURNOVERCONSTANT TURNOVER One of the most common challenges facing booster

clubs is constant turnover.

Which Causes: Lack of continuity Lack of transition plan No mentorship system Little if no previous experience to help

guide new club officers

Booster Tip #1: Underclassman parents always assume leadership roles.

(currently 94% of all booster clubs are lead by senior parents).

Result: Increased participation, knowledgeable mentorship system and established a natural format for transition and continuity. Increases the consistency and success by over 50%.
