About Us - Why Choose Golf Care?
All golfers, regardless of ability, run the risk
of injuring another person whilst out playing golf.
Every year over 12,400 golf injuries require hospital
treatment and millions of pounds worth of golfing equipment
is stolen. So it's surprising to hear independent research
claims that 9 out of 10 still golfers have insufficient golf insurance.
Furthermore, in April 1998, The Court of Appeal upheld a County Court
ruling that 'Golfers are liable for shots that cause injury, no matter how
slight the risk'. And a similar ruling was made by the Courts in November
2011 when Mr Phee, was awarded £397,000 in damages
when he was struck in the eye by a stray tee shot from a Mr Gordon.
The golf club where the accident happened was found to be 30%
liable but Mr Gordon was found to be 70% liable and therefore
left having to pay damages of circa £280,000.
So, with many golfers wrongly believing they are covered under
their household insurance, one erratic swing could leave them in
financial ruin.
If you're a golfer you need specialist golf insurance cover. Our policies
provide reliable ‘New For Old’ cover against theft, loss or damage to
your golfing equipment, damage to property, personal injury and
personal liability. The fact is, golf can be a very expensive game if
it goes wrong and you don't have the correct insurance. The more
often you play, the greater the risk!
Since inception in 2003, Golf Care has become the largest specialist
golf insurer in the UK. This is due to its very competitive pricing within
a marketplace where certain other companies charge customers
vastly inflated premiums. Being part of The JRW Group of companies,
which is by far the largest provider of specialist golf insurance in the
UK, allows Golf Care to provide its customers with the lowest
premiums possible. The company now insures over 90,000 individual
golfers insuring in excess of £100 million worth of golf equipment. With
the added security of the insurance policies being underwritten by
Lloyds of London you can be confident that Golf Care will be there for
you, should you need to make a claim.
We have developed four levels of cover with additional flexibility to ensure that you will find the exact cover to suit you, whatever your budget or requirements. These are just a few of the reasons why all the leading companies in the UK golf industry have chosen to promote Golf Care exclusively to their customers.
