INSURANCE - MEMBERSHIP - CERTIFICATION

As most of you know by now, Liability Insurance is scheduled to be in effect for Officials who also are members of USATF, starting on 11/01/08. This benefit was approved at the 2007 Convention where membership for officials was also overwhelming approved by the Officials in attendance. The cost of this policy will be borne and payment will be processed by USATF in Indianapolis. The bottom line here is the fact that membership will be required in order to be eligible for the Liability Coverage provided by USATF. Certification will not be valid once the expiration date on you membership card has been reached.

Certification Chairs will be processing certifications and recertification documentation as usual but will also be requiring that you provide your membership number with your request. Membership can be purchased on an annual, two, three and four year basis with respective discounts with increasing years. You may however provide membership number information on a yearly basis to the certification chair. Should you have any questions regarding this matter please contact your Association's Certification Chair.

The details of the Insurance Policy and the Proposal have been posted on this site. Final wording and other particulars are being worked out in Indianapolis.

This coverage will not, as rumored, cost you, the official, another $10. USATF is picking up the cost. Further expansion of the Membership Benefit Package is also underway.

Further details regarding contacts and appropriate action to be taken should an incident arise, will be provided shortly. The NOC Insurance Committee appreciates all your input and wishes to thank all those who so kindly provided their support to bring this effort to a successful closure.

Bob Tice, Chair - NOC Insurance Committee
