Home Nation Membership

Are you covered?

Insurance is just one of many Home Nation Membership benefits, but means you can train and race with confidence all year round!

Welsh Triathlon Insurance Guide

At Welsh Triathlon, we want to make sure that all of our members feel as comfortable and reassured as possible in knowing they have comprehensive cover for their swim, bike, run journey. 

As a Welsh Triathlon member, you will receive public liability insurance to adequately protect you while training and competing in triathlon or multi-sport activity. In addition to this, the insurance you receive through membership, will cover the cost of defending yourself against a claim if held responsible for loss, damage or injury to someone else or their property.
