What coverages are available for cheer gyms?

General liability
A must for all cheer schools, commercial general liability insurance protects you if you are sued by someone who claims that you caused their physical injury or damaged their property. You can choose the level of general liability protection you need:

• $500,000 per occurrence/$1.5 million aggregate*
• $1 million per occurrence/$3 million aggregate*

Optional liability coverages you can add to your policy:

• Abuse and molestation
• Competitions and exhibitions: insurance protection for you when you participate in competitions and tournaments that you do not sponsor
• Employee benefits liability
• Off-premises activities
• Special events and fundraisers for current policyholders
• Blanket additional insureds included at no additional cost: used for landlords for locations on the policy, recitals, performances and demonstrations

Accident medical (required)
Accident medical insurance can cover students’ medical bills if they are injured at your school or during activities you sponsor and have no insurance of their own, or their bills exceed what their insurance pays. Accident medical insurance is sold as a minimum earned premium policy. In the event you cancel your policy, we will retain the minimum premium.

Accident medical insurance is mandatory for cheer gyms. You can choose from three limits:

• $10,000
• $25,000
• $50,000
