Paddling clubs who have a current ACA Paddle America Club membership and adhere to ACA’s risk management requirements are eligible to participate in ACA’s insurance program. This program provides year-round general liability coverage to club members (who are also ACA members), event members, coaches, event organizers, and administrators arising from club-sponsored and adult-supervised on-water workshops, practices, training, instruction, and ACA sanctioned events as well as non-water activities such as approved fundraisers, banquets, and meetings.
