How to Submit an On-Ice Sport Accident Claim:
If you are injured while on the ice playing or refereeing hockey you can submit a claim by using the Sport Accident Claim Form that may be downloaded from this website. The coverage extended will be contingent upon the policy particulars.
Completed claim forms must dropped off in the LSH Mailbox at the WFD Sports Centre and addressed to Brian Laporte for signature. Ask the front desk for the location of the mailbox.
Your completed claim forms will be faxed or mailed with receipts.
Claim forms must be submitted within 90 days of injury. Claimants may submit receipts for up to one (1) year from date of injury.
Players & Referees are eligible for the coverage providing they have been seen by a doctor or dentist within 30 days from their date of injury.
On-ice accidental dental injury coverage shall only apply to whole, sound, natural teeth providing the minimum facial protection equipment is worn. The policy also allows for crowns, veneers and supporting structures. Capped teeth are included as part of the coverage as long as they cannot be removed.
If you have any questions or problems with your claim, contact Your team captain or division convenor.
