Brokerslink has added independent broker Wannet Sports Insurance as a new affiliate in the Netherlands.

Based in Arnhem, the underwriting agency was founded in 1995 and specialises in providing insurance solutions for sports clubs and athletes. Endorsed by the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM), Wannet operates across the Benelux region, with additional offices in Germany and Belgium.

The broker offers a range of insurance products designed to mitigate risks faced by athletes and sporting organisations. Wannet’s policies provide coverage for professional and amateur athletes, sports clubs, federations, and event organisers. Its services extend to liability insurance, accident coverage, and loss of earnings protection for athletes unable to compete due to injury.

As a Lloyd’s coverholder and managing general agent (MGA), Wannet has underwriting capacity of up to €30 million for individual athletes and up to €240 million for sports clubs and teams. Its affiliation with Brokerslink strengthens the network’s presence in Lloyd’s European and international markets, expanding access to specialist sports-related risk solutions.

“We are delighted to welcome Wannet to our ecosystem. Their expertise in the sports risk market has earned them a remarkable reputation for providing tailored solutions across the Benelux region,” said Anne Collette, business development and partnerships director for Brokerslink. “This partnership will be a great addition to Brokerslink and further enhance our global reach.”

Meanwhile, Joseph Wannet, founder and CEO of Wannet Sports Insurance, expressed his excitement at the partnership. “We are thrilled to be joining Brokerslink and look forward to extending our services and building new relationships with their global network.”

Brokerslink is a global broking company connecting independent brokers and risk management firms, offering a wide range of insurance and risk transfer solutions across multiple industries.

In April last year, cyber security specialist McAfee joined Brokerslink’s network as a “B.Tech affiliate.” This was followed by the addition of Inclusive Guarantee and Polygon in October.
