Beginning October 1st, 2008, insurance will be required for all NAFA-sanctioned tournaments.
The amended rule is as follows:
CHAPTER 6 - HOSTING A NAFA(R) SANCTIONED EVENT
Section 6.1 - Requirements
(a) NAFA(R) sanctioned tournaments may only be hosted by NAFA(R) or NAFA(R)
registered clubs in good standing. The host club must follow current NAFA(R)
Rules of Racing and Corporate Policies & Procedures. Any Club in good
standing may be considered for sanctioning. At least fifteen days prior to
the start of a tournament held in the United States, the NAFA Tournament
Sanctioning Secretary must receive a certificate of insurance listing NAFA
as an additional insured for that tournament with limits of at least $1
million per occurrence. In the event the Tournament Sanctioning Secretary
does not receive a certificate of insurance with coverage as stated above,
the tournament sanctioning will be revoked. The first Club to apply for
sanctioning with a valid sanctioning request will receive sanctioning unless
the weekend meets the criteria for a reserved weekend by another Club.
NAFA recognizes that this places a financial burden on NAFA clubs
hosting United States tournaments. In an effort to minimize this burden, we
have researched and found coverage available through the R.V. Nuccio company
(http://www.rvnuccio.com) at highly competitive rates, although insurance is
available through many different companies. NAFA is not receiving any
portion of these premiums. Due to the different legal and insurance
environments in the United States and Canada, these requirements will not
apply to events hosted in Canada at this time. We have not yet been able to
find similar policies available for Canadian tournaments.
