It was in 1972 that Motocross started as a new sporting activity in the United States of America, this was a markedly different experience quite unknown this side of the Atlantic ocean. Motorcycles and revamped dirt bikes were used to race across a enclosed strip of racing track which included steep gradients, sharp turns and sudden corners, many bumps and jumps with the track made of natural terrain.
Motocross and the required Motorcross Insurance for visitors arrived to United States more recently. Edison Dye is known as the "Father of American Motocross" and it in the 1960’s that Motorcross arrived from Europe as a popular sport.
This was an entirely new experience for American audiences who were earlier accustomed to witnessing flat track racing and they found it very appealing. American spectators got to see talented European racers for the first time in the US. The word Motocross itself derives from the French word for motor cycle - motorcyclette - and cross country - Motocross.
Motocross racing is a today a very popular sporting activity which is however considered as a hazardous adventure sporting activity. At Americam Visitor Insurance we come across travellers from Australia, Canada and other European countries like the UK are the ones who are most interested in this sporting activity.
While this sports activity is adventurous, there are specially designed adventure or hazardous sport insurance which is also considered risky in case of an accident. Insurance coverage for unexpected injury is the major requirement for this sports activity.Getting adequate cover for such sports activities becomes vital.
Not all the insurance companies cover this sports even while they cover a lot of other adventurous sports which are less risky when compared to Motocross. Finding an insurance plan that covers this activity is challenging. There are many US insurance companies available online which has a carefully designed product at their sports plan for this sport.
However it is important to understand the fine print for motocross sports activity. Finding the name of the sports activity in the plan information is not all. It is important to look at the terms and conditions to see under what circumstances specific to the situation, the plan covers any accident that can be caused by the incident.
Unfortunately at the present moment, there are no plans which cover motocross sports. We will update this page if any plan is available for motocross.
Trawick International Adventure Sports Insurance which provides adventure or extreme sports:The Trawick International travel insurance offers comprehensive coverage for US travelers taking part in adventure or extreme sports.
It’s that time again when the school year is starting to kick in for kids and young adults all across the USA! I am getting regular requests for insurance for international students that will include coverage for participation in a team sport. We do have some options for these individuals, so I thought I could lay some of them out here.
One of the best international sports student insurance is the Diplomat America or the Diplomat LongTerm Insurance plans offered by Global Underwriters. These plans have a collegiate sports rider in which you choose “Low”, “Middle” and “High” option depending on your sport. The main difference is the LongTerm plan allows you to extend the policy and it also allows up to 90 day trips back to your home country (per year).
The Diplomat America only allows 14 days of travel back to the home country (after which the policy will expire). The sports covered are: (1) Low Option - additional $34 flat monthly rate: Ballet; Baseball; Cheerleading; Cross Country; Diving; Equestrian; Fencing; Field Hockey; Golf; Polo (Horse); Polo (Water); Rowing; Softball; Surfing; Swimming; Tennis; Track & Field; Volleyball. (2) Middle Option - additional $48 flat monthly rate: Basketball; Competitive Cycling (Road, Track, CX); Ice Hockey; Inline Skating (Helmet & Proper Equipment Required); Lacrosse; Martial Arts/Karate; Modern Pentathlon; Skiing (Slalom, Giant Slalom, Downhill); Ski Jumping; Wrestling. (3) High Option - additional $102 flat monthly rate: Football (No Division One); Gymnastics; Rugby (No Division One); Soccer. This plan will cost about $87 per month for a 21 year old (without the athletic sports rider).
Another high school sports insurance for international students option is the Patriot Exchange insurance offered by IMG. It is much more economical than the Diplomat America plan, however, it does NOT include varsity sports teams regulated by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) nor the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA). You only get this coverage if you choose the “Add-on” Rider (NOT the Adventure Sports Rider). This plan can also be used to cover high school sports team participation and can be a good fit for many student athletes. Coverage of $250,000 maximum with a $100 deductible starts at $73 per month for a young adult (without the add-on; +$7 with the add-on).
There are a few other student plans that include coverage for student athletes on club teams and sports teams, but they limit coverage to $5000 or less, such as the Navigator for Student (by GeoBlue), StudentSecure Select plans (by WorldTrips), and Student Health Advantage plans (by IMG).
If you have questions about these plans or other situations for your student, please do not hesitate to call our friendly staff so we can advise you and guide you to the best choice for your student. Happy studying!
