Soccer Camp Waiver

Messner Athletics LLC Soccer Camp Release, Waiver of Liability, Assumption of Risk, & Indemnity Agreement: I request voluntary participation for my minor(s) to participate in the Messner Athletics Seymour Thunder Soccer Camp June 6-7, 2019.

ASSUMPTION OF RISKS: I acknowledge that I am aware there are risks associated with soccer and athletic related activity. Participation in this activity poses inherent risk that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid injuries. Although the risk for injury is low, there are still risks. These risks range from (1) minor injuries such as slips, falls, cuts, scratches, bruises, sprains/strains, (2) major injuries such as eye, joint or back injuries, fractures, heart attacks, heat stroke, concussions and (3) catastrophic, life-altering injuries including paralysis, to (4) death. I freely accept and fully assume all such risks, dangers and hazards and the possibility of personal injury, death, permanent disability, property damage or loss resulting thereof. Knowing and understanding the risks involved with participation in the activity, I hereby voluntarily and willingly assume responsibility for all risks and dangers associated with minor’s participation in the activity. I acknowledge that the foregoing assumptions of risks do not include any injury arising because of any intentional, willful, or grossly negligent act of any other party.

CONSENT: I consent to my minor’s participation in the activity and acknowledge that the minor and I fully understand minor’s participation may involve risk of serious injury or death, including losses which may result not only from minor’s own actions, inactions or negligence, but also from the actions, inactions or negligence of others, the condition of the facilities, equipment or areas where the event or activity is being conducted, and/or the rules of this type of event or activity. I understand that if I have any risk concerns, I should discuss the risks associated with my or my minor’s participation with the activity coordinators and event staff, before I sign this document and before the activity begins.

CERTIFICATION OF HEALTH STATUS AND INSURANCE COVERAGE: I certify that minor is in good health and has no physical condition that would prevent participation in this activity. Furthermore, I agree to use minor’s personal medical insurance as a primary medical coverage payment if accident or injury occurs. I consent to emergency medical treatment in the event such care is required, and I acknowledge that I am responsible for related costs.

WAIVER/INDEMNITY: In consideration of minor’s participation in the activity, I hereby waive all claims or causes of action against Messner Athletics LLC, the camp staff and all volunteers, arising out of minor’s participation in the activity and hereby release, hold harmless, and discharge Messner Athletics LLC, the camp staff, and all volunteers from all liability in connection therewith except such loss or damage which was caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of Messner Athletics LLC, the camp staff, and/or volunteers. I agree I am financially responsible for any losses resulting from minor’s actions and will indemnify Messner Athletics LLC for any loss or damage caused by minor during this activity.

RELEASE FOR MEDIA/PRESS COVERAGE: I agree that photographs, pictures, slides, movies, video or other media coverage of minor may be taken and used for legal purposes in connection with minor’s participation in the activity without compensation from Messner Athletics LLC.

TRANSPORTATION: Transportation will not be provided by Messner Athletics LLC. It is the parent’s/legal guardian’s responsibility to provide and/or arrange transportation to and from the soccer camp.

SEVERABILITY: I agree that the foregoing waiver and assumption of risks agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of Wisconsin and that if any portion thereof is held invalid, it is agreed that the balance shall, notwithstanding, continue in full legal force and effect.

CANCELLATION POLICY: Cancellations can be made up to the day of the camp.  There will be a $5 cancellation fee for all cancellations.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF UNDERSTANDING: I have read this release and hold-harmless agreement and understand the terms used in it and their legal significance. This waiver and release is freely and voluntarily given with the understanding that I have given up the right to sue and the right to legal recourse against Messner Athletics LLC, the camp staff, and all volunteers.
