Sportscover Australia has scooped the accolade of Underwriting Agency of the Year at this year’s Australia and New Zealand Insurance Industry Award.

The specialist sports and leisure underwriting agency was named at the 2009 awards ceremony last week in Sydney, Australia.

“Being named as a winner is no ordinary feat,” said Joan Fitzpatrick, awards spokesperson, on behalf of the judging panel.

“We are supremely proud of the winners and their innovation, high professional standards, customer service focus and industry leadership,” Fitzpatrick added.

Murray Anderson, Sportscover Australia CEO, said: “We’re very proud to have won this award against some stiff competition.

“It’s a great tribute to the whole team: our staff, our broker network and our clients.

“Without their fantastic support we would not have been able to grow so significantly over the past 23 years.”

Since being founded in 1986, Sportscover Australia has grown to become a global sports and leisure services insurance group, including Lloyd’s managing agent Sportscover Underwriting Limited and Lloyd’s syndicate 3334 SCS.
