September 5, 2025

Fort Wayne, Indiana — Sport Insurance Specialists (SIS) today announced its official designation as a Managing General Agency (MGA), securing full underwriting and binding authority for its suite of insurance products.

“This achievement represents a significant step forward, not just for our business, but for the entire motorsports community we serve,” said Jeff Ladd, president of Sport Insurance Specialists. “With full underwriting authority, we can provide quicker turnaround times, more competitive solutions, and specialized coverage that better reflects the realities of racing and event management.”

For motorsports stakeholders, the benefits of SIS’ new MGA status include:

Motorsports Venues: Streamlined coverage placement, faster policy issuance, and risk management programs designed specifically for track operations.

Managing Partners & Promoters: Greater flexibility in event-specific coverage and liability protection, reducing administrative delays.

Industry-Wide Impact: More direct communication, faster claims handling, and enhanced expertise from a partner with deep motorsports knowledge.
