Ultimate Frisbee Travel Insurance for Players Abroad

If ultimate is the main reason for your trip, standard travel insurance may not cover you.

Our ultimate frisbee travel insurance is designed specifically for players travelling abroad to train or compete, providing specialist sports cover while you play.

Whether you’re heading overseas for a tournament, training camp, university competition or club tour, this policy offers protection for the demands of competitive ultimate — including sprinting, jumping and diving for the disc.

Cover for tournaments, training and competitive play abroad

Ask yourself two questions about your current travel insurance – 

Does it cover me while training and competing abroad?

e.g. training camps

Does it cover me if the primary purpose of my trip is to play ultimate?

e.g. overseas tournaments

Ultimate Frisbee Travel Insurance

Most standard travel insurance policies are not designed for organised sports. If ultimate is the main purpose of your trip, it is:

  • often excluded entirely
  • only covered recreationally
  • or not covered during competitions

Yellow Jersey, specialist ultimate travel insurance, is built differently. Our policy is designed for players travelling abroad to participate in ultimate, covering the physical nature of the sport and the realities of international competition. This includes cover while:

  • Competing in tournaments
  • Training with your team
  • Participating in organised matches

What’s Included in Ultimate Frisbee Travel Insurance?

Depending on your level of cover, benefits may include:

  • Emergency medical treatment for sports-related injuries
  • Emergency evacuation and repatriation
  • Trip cancellation or curtailment due to injury or illness
  • Personal liability cover
  • Cover for lost, stolen or damaged sports equipment
  • Protection while training and competing abroad

As with all policies, cover is subject to terms, conditions and limits.

If you take several trips throughout the year, an annual policy may be better value.

Annual or Short Term

A Travel lots, pay less

Committing to an annual policy can often work out better value than buying cover for each trip, while still keeping you protected for every weekend ultimate camp or week-long holiday abroad.

Plus, our policies can cover multiple sports, so you could be set for your summer ultimate tour and still have cover ready for your winter skiing trip; no last-minute insurance scramble required.

B No commitment

Not travelling all the time, or not ready to sign up for a full year? No worries. Our short-term, single-trip policies might cost a little more per trip, but they give you all the flexibility you need and the same handy suite of covers as our annual travellers.

Discounts

Heading off with your other half or the whole gang? We think that should be fun, not a headache for your wallet. That’s why couples get a break on the second traveller. One policy covers you both, and let’s be honest, one set of claims is usually enough drama for anyone.

Families get an even sweeter deal. Extra kids are added at a lower rate, so a family of four ends up paying just a little more than two adults. Single parents, don’t worry, the same clever scaling applies. Basically, we won’t charge you double just because there are more of you.

It all makes sense: more people on one policy doesn’t mean double the risk, and it certainly doesn’t mean double the paperwork. So grab your crew, pack your bags, and enjoy the trip. We’ve got the cover sorted at a fair price, no fuss, no nonsense.

Ultimate (often called ultimate frisbee) is a non-contact team sport played with a flying disc, where teams score by catching the disc in the opposing end zone.

The sport is played globally across club, university and international competitions, and is governed internationally by the World Flying Disc Federation (WFDF), the recognised global body for flying disc sports.

Ultimate combines elements of football, netball and basketball, with an emphasis on speed, agility and fair play — making it a fast-growing and widely recognised competitive sport worldwide.
