Cheer Gym Insurance

Your cheer gym is like a second home for the students who train there. Safety is your number one priority both on and off the mats. You also need to protect your business. Having the appropriate insurance in place is a must. Because of the physical nature of the work you do and the population you serve, your cheer gym needs specialized insurance. We can help.

Cheer gym insurance is a necessity

All businesses need basic insurance. Your cheer gym requires more than just the basics. Specialized cheer gym insurance programs provide the comprehensive coverages you need to make sure your business is protected. This starts with sufficient general liability insurance. Any sport carries the risk of injury to its participants, and cheerleading is no exception. Should someone become injured at your facility, your liability insurance can help pay for defense costs as well as any damages awarded by the court. Inadequate limits could lead to financial ruin.

It’s more than just cheerleading

If your operation does more than just cheerleading instruction, your insurance must reflect that. For example, you may offer competitive dance programs, birthday parties, yoga and exercise classes, cheer and dance clinics or camps, gymnastics, and open gym periods. Your students may also participate in off-site events while representing your gym, so you will want to be protected in those instances, too.

Insurance tailored to the population you serve

Most cheer gyms cater to children and young adults with skill levels ranging from novice to the more experienced students. The highly-physical type of activities cheer gyms specialize in carries a higher risk of injury. Accident medical expense insurance can cover the out-of-pocket expenses incurred by participants who are injured in the course of training or competition. Working with youth means there's also the risk staff or owners could be accused of physical, sexual, or mental abuse. Defense of such claims is typically very expensive and a cheer gym insurance program can offer coverage for abuse and molestation claims.

Cheer gyms face standard business risks, too

Workers' compensation, premises liability, gym equipment, office contents, and cyber liability insurance policies are also available to protect the business side of your organization. If your cheer gym cannot open due to damage from a fire or other perils, business interruption insurance can protect from financial losses. Insurance agents with specialized knowledge of the industry can help you select the best cheer gym insurance for your facility.
