Alpine Canada Alpine has just released an important memo regarding Sport Accident Insurance Policy (SAIP) insurance which can be viewed in it's entirety via this link:
The most important key points are:
- The SAIP insurance policy broker will be changing this season.
- Terms of the new SAIP policy will be different than previous terms (these have not yet been revealed).
- As of June 30th all existing SAIP documentation is considered void.
- All FIS members participating in events after June 30 MUST BE REGISTERED WITH BC ALPINE FOR 2014/15 season before they participate in order for coverage to be valid.
As the registration database does not turn over to the new season until July 1st, this may pose a problem for some athletes. In order to facilitate this issue please have your registrar or coach email me with a list of athletes which need to be active as of July 1st, and those athletes will be put forward on the new season immediately.
