Where I cave, this isn't the case. It might be the case in other areas in the UK. If that's correct, perhaps regionally administered insurance might work.
I think there's at least one item on your own club's meets list this year which does require membership of the BCA insurance scheme, as the owner wouldn't have agreed to the visit if not covered for public liability.
Regional insurance schemes would almost certainly not benefit from the economy of scale which our main BCA policy enjoys. You'd end up paying a lot more, even if it could be arranged in the first place.
Could I also just mention (regarding points made by other folk) if your club is part of the BCA scheme (and thus you have to be to be a member) it's the result of your club having made the decision to join. There is nothing to stop a club from existing without joining the BCA scheme but most realise the wisdom of being insured. The cost per person is laughably cheap; we're extremely lucky to have the option at all.
