Why insure your Basque pelota practice?

Basque pelota is played bare-handed, with a pala or a chistera, with balls that can exceed 300 km/h in cesta punta. A poorly controlled catch exposes players to violent bruising, or even finger fractures. Running and pivoting on the fronton also lead to ankle and knee sprains. Standard club membership and general contracts cover these accidents poorly, and medical costs add up fast...

A dedicated personal accident insurance takes over: medical costs, transport, rehabilitation and disability are covered according to your plan, in training as in competition. You can then rally with a free mind.
