Bayswater Provides Insurance Cover Senior Players
Today is a prodigious day for the future of soccer player safety and insurance in Australia.
Advanced Insurances is delighted to announce that the current NPLWA Champions – BAYSWATER CITY SC have become the 1st club in all of Australia to sign up for the ground breaking National Sports Insurance Program.
The National Sports Insurance Program is a revolutionary and unique insurance scheme as it offers players up to $750 per week extra if regrettably an injury resulted in a loss of income This is also in conjunction to the $250 per week currently in place through FFA Australia.
Football Operations Manager, Oriano Colli says “Bayswater City SC is a progressive club who are looking to take the NPLWA to a more professional level. We have a duty of care to our players who wear the Bayswater Shirt with pride. Week in and week out, rain or shine our players go out onto the field and give this club their all and it is only right that we in return offer these players as much security as possible.
Injuries are and always will be a part of all sports; but when a serious injury impacts on a players ability to earn a wage outside of football then it is up to the clubs to protect them hence Bayswater City SC didn’t hesitate to sign up for this fabulous, necessary and long overdue Sports Insurance program that’s now being offered by Advanced Insurances”
Advanced Insurances National Sports Insurance Programme spokesman, Andy Petterson, who had a 20year Professional footballing career including spells in the English Premier League and the A-League said “ When Advance Insurances came to me with this program I had no doubt I had to get involved.
We have to realise that players competing outside the A-League are not professionals, they have full time jobs outside of football and when an injury means they are unable to work it takes it toll on all aspects of a players life.
Over the years I have seen how a serious injury can put undue financial pressure on players and their family. This unique insurances policy now allows the player the ability to breathe easy for up to 52 weeks should they not be able to work and you just can’t put a price on that kind of peace of mind”
“I commend Oriano Colli and Bayswater City SC for taking the required initiative and necessary steps forward to protect their players with this policy. BCSC is serious about protecting their players welfare and we at Advanced Insurances are hoping that other clubs throughout Australia follow Bayswater City’s lead” added Petterson.
