Cancellation Insurance

Your SincSports web site promotes your event and, together with our team and yours, prepares your participants in the months leading up to the actual event itself. Although circumstances can cause the cancellation of events the SincSports fees are due whether the event is held or not.

Recognizing that the cancellation of an event causes a catastrophic event on your revenue, we offer cancellation insurance as an option. This document explains how it works if it is selected and if the event meets the SincSports "Cancellation Policy Guideline."

Cancellation Policy

Cancellation Insurance is available prior to signing the contract. The receipt of the $50 advance minimum payment (covers up to 50 teams) is required to activate insurance. The base cost of the insurance is $1 per team.

The insurance covers the cost of the price per team for web services and the referee scheduling module (if added on).

It does not include:
  • Invitations
  • Custom URLs
  • Featured Event Listing
  • Or any other additional services (not mentioned above)

Policy Guideline

The reason the event is cancelled is not a factor. To meet policy guidelines for coverage, the event must not have had ANY games played on ANY day. Shortened games count as games played.

How does it work?

Your event is charged $1 per team for the insurance and covers the event per team pricing, *minus invitations, and additional services that fall under the policy guidelines.

If the event does not cancel (or meet policy guidelines), the full amount is due plus the $1 per team for insurance.
