The Hockey Foundation requires all coaches, players, and/or volunteers participating in our programming to take out a travel insurance policy for the duration of their trip. We highly recommend World Nomads as that insurance provider!

NOTE: Outdoor ice hockey (on a pond/lake) is covered by World Nomads for residents of USA, Canada, Germany and many other countries around the world. Their insurance policies (which vary by country of residence) often provide conditions for medical, travel and baggage issues.
