Personal Injury Insurance cover is provided to Volunteer Club Umpires and League Appointed Umpires through the Australian Football Umpires | National Risk Protection Program which is underwritten by Marsh Advantage Insurance Pty Ltd. The insurance cover is designed to offer some peace of mind to members, participants, and volunteers of an organisation by having protection for certain costs related to an injury sustained whilst involved in an Insured’s activity.
