Changes for 2023

The price of the Competition Insurance for CF-run leagues was increased by OP-Pohjola to 140 euros, an increase of 15 euros.

All licenses except those for hard ball competitive leagues now cost five euros.

With the expansion of our junior programmes, we’re happy to include a very affordable insurance option for the youngest cricketers (under 10 years old at the end of 2023). Priced at a mere eight euros, the insurance will cover all other sports included in the Sporttiturva cooperation. No deductible is charged for the children’s insurance.
