This journey involves a considerable amount of effort and enjoyment, with an emphasis on strength building, body preparation, body positioning, drills, and extensive practice.

In 2024, all kids enrolled in a term-based program will need to pay an annual Insurance, Rego and Membership fee of $55-to-$80/child based on the enrolled program. This will cover the child for personal injury insurance during the calendar year, and anyone joining a class in term 4 will have a slightly reduced fee.
Modbod Kids affiliated with Gymnastics NSW in Mid-2021, allowing the business to become a registered gymnastics club. This helps us with ticking some very important boxes.
Which include:
1. Adequate Gymnastics Public Liability Insurance
2. Accredited gymnastics coaches (and ensuring all staff are up to date with their first aid, Working With Children Check, Child Protection and other educational courses provided by Gymnastic Australia)
3. Personal injury insurance for all kids who take part in any of our programs (subject to paying a one-off annual insurance fee).
Why must every child be insured?
Under our Gymnastics Public Liability Insurance, all kids are insured for up to 30 days (which means holiday programs, birthday parties and trials are all covered). However, when a child goes beyond the 30 days (such as in the case of a term program), they must have personal injury insurance in place (which is an extra one-off cost that we need to charge for and then transfer across to Gymnastics NSW).
What is Personal Injury Insurance?
It’s designed to offer some peace of mind to club members (i.e. the kids) by having protection for certain costs related to injury sustained whilst involved in any gym activities. Coverage is split into 3 components:
Capital Benefits – claimable in the event of death or permanent disability
Non-Medicare Medical – provides reimbursement for items that are not claimable in any way through Medicare. However, due to government legislation, the Medicare Gap cannot be claimed.
The following expenses are generally covered:
physio and chiro treatment, dental treatment, ambulance transport, private hospital treatment
The following are not covered:
Doctor’s fees, X-rays, public hospital costs, surgeon‘s fees (which are all generally covered by Medicare)
