What this bond does
SB-B requires the promoter's compliance with the described laws, ordinances and rules and payment of damages from covered violations or negligence by the principal, servants or agents. Use the actual stated condition rather than assuming every sports bond has the same purpose.
- Who needs it
- The actual boxing or full-contact martial-arts promoter seeking new or renewed licensure under the Department's accepted request. Identify whether that request calls for SB-B, the separate performance instrument, or more than one required filing.
- Who it protects
- The SB-B form names the State and People of Illinois and caps total liability at $5,000 regardless of years in force or number of claims. It describes violation and negligence damages; it is not a replacement for a general liability policy or an assurance that a different performance request is satisfied.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Questions about this bond
Are SB-B and PB-BOX interchangeable because their conditions look alike?
No equivalence is established here. The posted forms have different names and sums—$5,000 and $10,000. Follow the Department's actual request rather than substituting based on similar wording.
Does the $5,000 amount renew separately for every claim?
SB-B says the total remains $5,000 regardless of the number of years or claims. Match the accepted undertaking instead of treating each claim as a new limit.
Does the 30-day notice clock start when the surety mails it?
The printed SB-B clause runs from the Department's receipt of written notice, with prior accrued liability preserved. Follow the current accepted notice and delivery directions.
