Public Liability Insurance for our sport has become ever-increasingly difficult to obtain, SSAA (Qld.) in conjunction with Steadfast ART Limited commenced a Discretionary Mutual Fund to ensure Queensland Members are protected from the uncertainty and ever-increasing costs of obtaining public liability now and in the future.
