Insurance For Non-Ohip Residents
The Ontario Lacrosse Association’s Insurance Program is available to all OLA members who are residents of Ontario. For any non-resident participants without an OHIP card:
Register with your home club.
If the participant (or their family) has out of country medical insurance, the relevant policy and any applicable policy wording (or a confirmation letter from the Carrier stating that “Out of Country coverage extends to the participant playing lacrosse in Ontario”) can be forwarded to the attention of Franca Brett (fbrett@youngsinsurance.ca) for approval to ensure that the policy includes a rider which specifically covers Competitive Athletic Contact Events.
Athlete/individual may not participate until policy is vetted and approved by Youngs (expect 3-5 business days turn-around for this process).
Participant uploads their email approval from Youngs Insurance into Sportzsoft, and also forwards the email approval from Youngs Insurance to their club registrar.
If Youngs does not approve the insurance policy, the participant may seek to purchase coverage from Youngs or look into another policy and start the approval request process with Youngs again.
