About Council Sports Facility Insurance
Insurance for council and local-authority sports venues
Council sports facility insurance is aimed at local-authority and public-sector operators responsible for sports halls, leisure centres, pitches, pools, community venues and other mixed-use public sports sites.
These facilities often have a more complex insurance profile because they can combine multiple activity types, shared use, public access, contractor involvement, organised events and larger operational governance requirements. The right policy structure should reflect the way the site is actually managed and used.
