Insurance

BC School Sports (BCSS) purchases Commercial General Liability Insurance for BC School Sports, recognized Athletic Associations and most BCSS Sport Commissions (except Football and Wrestling).  General information about BC School Sports insurance is attached below. 

If you are organizing Zone Championships or Provincial Championships on behalf of a BC School Sports-Sport Commission or recognized BCSS Athletic Association, and the facility requires proof of insurance, please complete the Proof of Insurance Request Form and submit it to info@bcschoolsports.ca.

Note, you must first contact your school to see if this is something that the School Protection Program will provide an insurance certificate for before contacting BC School Sports.

If you have any questions please contact BCSS at info@bcschoolsports.ca or by phone 604-477-1488.
