Sports instructor liability insurance for instructors directly supervising an individual or small groups.

We are excited to announce that Sadler Sports now offers prefilled renewals for your Sports Instructor Program!

Click Here to Renew Now!

Specifically designed to meet the unique needs of a U.S. based sports instructor who works on an independent contract basis and is directly supervising an individual or small group engaged in sport-related skills.

Pay just $367 for a rock-solid $1,000,000 Liability Limit that doesn’t require you to join another expensive association or to become certified just to qualify.

Beware of other programs that don’t cover punitive damages and that nickel and dime you with charges for each additional insured. Read the fine print in competitor’s programs!

If you’re the owner of a sports facility or own a business with multiple sports instructors, click here to get a quote to save up to 38% while getting the protection you need.
