Public Liability Policy

Archery Australia provides RGBs, Clubs and individual affiliates (members) with a twenty five million dollar Public Liability Policy. The policy covers the Club/RGB and its members against injury or damage to other member/s and the members of the general public against injury and property damage.

Cover is provided to members of the public engaged in instruction (Come N Try) or a visitor (Temporary Member) and all current financial registered affiliates (members) irrespective of age of Archery Australia while shooting on an approved and registered archery venue or taking part in an approved activity.

Clubs must register their total shooting members and ensure any person shooting on their venue is currently registered with Archery Australia as a Member or Temporary Member. Failure to register all persons shooting or engaged in approved Club activities at a Club venue or failure to comply with Temporary Membership rules may void the policy.

The Archery Australia Public Liability also covers Clubs conducting archery activities on venues away from the registered Club venue.

Any activity away from the registered Club venue must be conducted to Archery Australia Shooting and Safety rules, the Club should undertake a Risk Analysis of the venue and activity. The Club must advise Archery Australia of the activity and the venue arrangements so this information can be kept on file and added to the Club venues list.

The policy does not cover members if they are shooting in their backyard or on a venue not registered with Archery Australia or engaged in an activity not approved by the Club or registered with Archery Australia.
