2009 JO INDIVIDUAL PLAYER REGISTRATION
For 2009, all ASA JO Travel Team Players must be
registered individually, using the “ZERO” deductible ASA accident insurance
policy. For only $25.00, players are adequately protected for the entire 2009
Calendar Year.
Recreational Leagues are strongly encouraged to
register their players individually, choosing either the Zero deductible without
photo ID’s ($12.00), or the $250.00 deductible without photo ID’s ($9.00).
Recreational Leagues choosing to register as a
Team, rather than individually, may still do so, but your overall team cost will
be greater than if registering individually. Team Registration is $25.00. Once
registered, and with State Commissioner Approval Only, team managers will then
need to contact Bollinger Insurance to purchase Team Accident Insurance. In
order to be considered an Arizona ASA Rec League, there must be 4 or more teams
registered.
All JO Teams competing in ASA sanctioned
tournaments must be able to provide the Tournament Director with proof of
Individual/Team Accident Insurance Coverage, at time of official team entry.
When ASA teams are properly registered, their
rostered players are covered against bodily injury, even when they compete in
Non-ASA softball tournaments. Only ASA provides this accommodation.
When comparing “Apples & Apples”, ASA Insurance
through Bollinger is simply Unbeatable!
Please contact the JO Commissioner in your
District for personal assistance in registering your players Individually!!

checks for their Coaches will be provided a $5 Million Dollar Liability Policy

Please consult your JO Commissioner on how to make
sure your team or league becomes active in the ACE Certification Program!
