How far does your cover go on terrain you have never seen?

icon Frais médicaux

Achilles rupture or fracture, care up to €150,000

Past 35, tendons and bones take sharp accelerations through the undergrowth and landings across ditches less kindly. A ruptured Achilles or a broken wrist comes quickly on new terrain. Medical costs are covered up to €150,000, in the host country and back home.

icon Transport et rapatriement

Far from home, in a host country that changes each summer

The championships move to a new country every year, so you may get hurt thousands of kilometres from your own doctor. Assistance and repatriation at actual cost arrange evacuation from the accident site, care on the spot and then your journey home.

icon Option compétition

Sprint, middle, long and your whole masters season

The WMOC are an official international championship, with world titles awarded in each age class. The Competition option covers you in every race on the programme, then throughout your season: national championships, club events and orienteering raids.

icon Capital invalidité

Disability that stays after a fall, up to €200,000

A headfirst fall down a wooded slope, a dislocated shoulder that never regains full movement: at this age, recovery is slower and sometimes incomplete. The permanent disability lump sum, up to €200,000, helps you face the after-effects and adapt your life.

Masters, watch out for terrain you have never raced

The host country changes every summer, and so does the terrain: Nordic forest full of marshes, karst, dunes, mountains or an old town for the sprint. Many arrive the day before, tired from travel, without time to read the vegetation. The urge to place well in your age class pushes you faster than your ankles can handle.

Orienteering goes well beyond this yearly meeting: Sunday club races, night events by headtorch, training camps abroad, relays with friends. To stay protected on each of them, an orienteering insurance policy with personal accident cover protects training and competition alike, wherever in the world you run.
