Colorado company specializing in sports insurance has covered generations of teams, coaches and programs across North America.
May 10, 2011 - PRLog -- Westminster, Co. – In mid 2011, The Camp Team, the official sports insurance provider for many world and national champions, will write its 50,000th sports insurance policy, a major milestone for a company that has been filling an often-overlooked niche in the athletic industry for more than 20 years.
   Through sound judgment learned over the years and unparalleled customer service, The Camp Team has grown to serve clients in football, baseball, basketball, hockey, wrestling, golf, lacrosse, track, swimming, cheerleading, tennis, martial arts and more all across the U.S. By concentrating strictly on sports insurance, The Camp Team’s leadership has grown to be a nationwide authority on the subjects of sports insurance and sports risk management. The Camp Team’s current client list features countless NCAA colleges and universities and their various athletic programs (which includes several sitting NCAA National Champion in different sports) and numerous youth and amateur athletic programs, facilities and leagues from all across the country.
   The Camp Team was born from of a sports agency that represented college football players. Bob Leid, a former high school wrestling coach who was running the agency and also had a background in insurance, founded The Camp Team in 1988. Through his dealings with athletic administrations, he recognized an opportunity for an organization dedicated solely to service the insurance needs of the sports industry. Current Co-Owner and Vice President John Stevens, who had worked with Leid at the sports agency, joined The Camp Team in 1994. As college and amateur sports have become more sophisticated businesses, The Camp Team’s expertise and offerings have grown as well, evidenced by the milestone of 50,000 written policies.
   “One of the reasons we have reached a successful milestone like this is that all of us here at The Camp Team have an overwhelming passion for athletics,” said Stevens. “Beyond our learned insurance certifications and know-how, we all have backgrounds as coaches, players or trainers, which makes a big difference. Our clients need us to understand their worlds, and because we focus on and are passionate about sports, we can do that better than anybody.”
   The Camp Team provides a broad spectrum of products for all sports, including General Liability insurance specifically designed for sports facilities, camps, clinics, leagues, spectators, Directors and Officers and even policies for cyber protection, boxing and mixed martial arts. Thanks for its working in the sports insurance business for more than 20 years, The Camp Team has also developed a comprehensive risk management audit program to help its clients avoid accidents or injuries before they happen as an added value.
