Yes, we strongly advise you to order one of these. They are free and give the child access to immediate medical care in emergency.
What Insurance do you suggest we take out?
We expect everyone to take sports specific insurance out when booking the trip. Ensure you get cover for injury and are not able to attend the trip, so you are refunded the cost of the package. We aren’t partners with an insurance company, however these are two insurance companies players have used in the past when coming out, please thoroughly check the policy before taking it out.
