Purchasing Event Insurance Through DC.USSSA : A Step-by-Step Guide
Introduction: This USSSA University tutorial provides a walkthrough on purchasing insurance for events. Unlike most event-related functionalities housed within DC.USSSA, this process involves a different pathway for securing event insurance.
Accessing Insurance Purchase:
Dashboard Navigation: Start by logging into your DC.USSSA account. Navigate to the insurance section from your dashboard.
Director Insurance Dashboard: Here, you'll find a list of upcoming events associated with your account. To purchase insurance for one of your own events, locate the event and click on the "Purchase" tab.
Filling Out Insurance Details:
Event Information: On the event page, fill out the general information required for insurance, such as the sport, number of teams, and the cost calculation will be automatically populated based on the details provided.
Billing and Director Information: Confirm the event details, including billing information, to ensure the insurance is correctly attached to the director and the event.
Additional Named Insured: If the event is taking place at multiple ballparks or if there are entities such as cities or park management groups that need to be listed as additionally insured, add them in the provided section.
Finalizing Purchase:
Certification and Payment: After certifying that all information is correct, proceed to the payment page. Enter your payment details to complete the purchase.
Insurance Certificate: Once the insurance certificate is completed, it will be accessible from the list of events on your dashboard. This certificate will include all additionally named insured entities.
Purchasing Insurance for Non-Direct Events:
State Director Purchases: If you're a state director purchasing insurance for an event you're not directly overseeing, navigate to the purchase event insurance section for non-director events.
Select Event and Complete Form: Choose the applicable event and complete the form similarly, including the number of teams and any additional insured entities.
Conclusion:
Upon completion, an insurance certificate for the selected event will be generated, visible on the dashboard, and available for download. This certificate will also be accessible to the event's direct management team. This streamlined process ensures that all necessary parties are covered under the event's insurance policy, safeguarding against potential liabilities.
