"The AMCA Insurance brokers who deal with AMCA riders insurance have informed us that they are no longer able to pay the weekly benefits for time off work due to injury caused at an AMCA event. We are not alone, other organisations are also in the same position. Personal Accident Cover for Competitors has therefore been changed and will no longer include weekly benefits for temporary total disablement (i.e. whilst off work following an injury at an AMCA event). The Insurance premium for Capital Benefits is compulsory and covers

 

i) Accidental Death=£5000.00

ii) Permanent total loss of eye or eyes=£5000.00

iii) Loss of limb or limbs=£5000.00

iv) Permanent total disablement=£30000.00

A new lump sum payment of £2000 will be paid to any competitor confined to hospital, following an accident in an AMCA authorised event, for a period of 4 weeks or more as a direct result of injury caused at an AMCA authorised event. Riders are strongly recommended to make individual arrangements to find weekly benefits insurance cover for competing in AMCA events.

Full details of Premiums can be obtained from our Insurance Brokers. Contact the AMCA Office for further information.

Please note:- An AMCA Licence is not essential to take part in Enduro events.

The paragraphs above regarding 'Capital Benefits' apply and are covered in your entry fee paid to enter each event.

If you require larger benefits than those shown above then the A.M.C.A. has a scheme that may help you.

To qualify for this scheme you will have to take out an A.M.C.A. Enduro Only Licence that costs £10 and add it to the Personal Accident Premium (min £31.00)for whatever Increased lump sum benefit you require.

Please Ring the AMCA Office on 01543 466 582 for more details and to obtain a Licence form.

Riders who have Motocross A.M.C.A Scheme A Licences will be covered (Premiums and Benefits unaffected) if entered in any of our events

 

Remember:- An Annual Licence is not compulsory to ride in any of our events. It is up to you what you require although we do strongly recommend that you do get your own weekly benefit scheme that pays out for temporary total disablement.
