Permits and Insurance

BUAC winter cross country events are conducted on bushland trails adjoining and near to the Bendigo urban area. Necessary permits are obtained from Parks Victoria and several other authorities on an annual basis. These require the club to maintain Public Liability Insurance which it does via Athletics Victoria as a subsidiary of Athletics Australia. As an affiliated club they cover our club and runners with public liability insurance with all the events we conduct.
