These risks are increased in the presence of larger groups of participants.

If, however, I/we or parent/guardian observe any unusual significant hazard in participation, I/we will bring such hazard to the attention of the nearest Facility official immediately.

I/we and/or Guardian, for myself or for Athlete, and on behalf of my heirs, assigns, personal representatives and next-of-kin, hereby release and hold harmless Provider as well as its members, managers, officers, Coaches, affiliates, attorneys, shareholders, principals, employees, and agents (collectively “Released Parties”’), with respect to any and all injury, disability, death or loss or damage to person or property, whether arising from the negligence of the Released Parties, Users or otherwise.

Released Parties may administer first aid or other needed care on the Athlete in the event of any apparent injury. I/we and/or Guardian acknowledges that any such care shall not constitute an assumption of risk or of the duty of care and shall in no way limit the scope or efficacy of this Waiver whether or not the Released Party possess applicable medical training or knowledge.

I have read this release of liability, and assumption of risk agreement, fully understand its terms without any inducement. This is to certify that I, and/or Guardian with legal responsibility for this participant, have read the rules and regulations for participation in this activity, have represented by age and/or the age of the participant honestly and do consent and agree to his/her release as provided above of all the Released Parties, and for myself, my heirs and next-of–kin, I release and agree to hold harmless and indemnify the Released Parties from any and all liabilities incident to myself and/or my minor child’s involvement or participation in these programs and activities as provided above, even if arising from the negligence or gross negligence of Released Parties or Users.

[Guardian only] I, the Guardian of the Athlete, have the right and authority to execute this release and waiver on behalf of the Athlete, and shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Released Parties for any liability resulting from any limit to or abrogation of my authority to execute this release and waiver on Athlete’s behalf, as well as from any claims by or on behalf of Athlete and Athlete’s successors, heirs, and assigns.
