An athlete's insurance contract in accident case
Hrvoje Vojković
Abstract
Sports activities carry with significant risk in terms of negatively affecting health and consequentially financial loss from which arose the need for an interpolation of the institute of contractual insurance with respect to the onset of such consequential damages. The legal model providing effective protection of financial interests for sportspersons as potential injured parties is actually a contracted policy to insure the sportsperson against the consequences of an accident which has been chosen as the main research issue in this paper. The appropriate application of scientific methods has determined the relevant tort civil law framework for providing the insuree’s legal protection against sports injuries within Croatian law with an overview of the particular presumptions in concluding a typical insurance policy – the existence of the insuree’s risks as legal and factual issues sui generis.
