Tournament Insurance Details

Teams have the option to purchase Event Cancellation Team Coverage by VI Coverage, powered by Vertical Insure, when registering for any LouCity/Racing Event in GotSport. This optional coverage adds a layer of protection for your non-refundable registration fee.

For teams that purchase Event Cancellation Insurance, here is how it works:

Full Refund for Pre-Tournament Cancellations: If the event is canceled before the tournament starts due to weather conditions, your insured team will receive 100% of the non-refundable registration fee back. No questions asked.

Pro-Rated Refund for Mid-Tournament Cancellations: In the event that the tournament is forced to cancel after it has started due to weather conditions, the insured team will receive a refund based on the number of games guaranteed versus the number of games played. This ensures you only pay for the games you’ve played and not a penny more.

Affordable Protection at Just 10% of the Entry Fee. Adding Event Cancellation Team Coverage to your registration is a smart choice for safeguarding against the unexpected. Don’t let the possibility of weather-related cancellations disrupt your team’s plans or financial commitments.

Event Cancellation Insurance can be purchased up to 15 days prior to the start of the event.

Entry Fee Example:

• Team Registration fee is $900
• Insurance will cost $90 (10%)
• Event Fully Canceled due to weather: Your team receives a $900 refund from VI Coverage, powered by Vertical Insure.
• Event Canceled due to weather, and you only received 2 games: Your team receives a $300 refund from VI Coverage, powered by Vertical Insure.
