Waiver of Liability
For and in consideration of my child (named above) being permitted to participate as a member of Southern Maryland Volleyball Club, I understand and acknowledge that volleyball involves known and unanticipated risks which could result in physical or emotional injury, paralysis or permanent disability, death, and property damage. I understand such risks simply cannot be eliminated, despite the use of safety equipment, without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activity.
Knowing the risks, I have voluntarily applied formy child to participate in the activity and thereby agree to assume those risks to release and hold harmless Southern Maryland Volleyball Club, its officers, employees or agents, or the owners or maintainers of any facility used by the Southern Maryland Volleyball Club for practice or activities, who (through negligence or carelessness) might otherwise be liable to me or to my child (or my heirs or assigns) for damages.
I further understand and agree that this release, discharge, waiver, and assumption of risk is to be binding on my and my child’s heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns. In addition, if at any time I believe that event conditions are unsafe or if I observe any significant change with regards to my child’s physical or medical condition that may affect his/her readiness for participation in the program, I will remove my child from the program immediately.
I, for myself and on behalf of my heirs, assigns, personal representatives and next of kin, HEREBY RELEASE, INDEMNIFY, AND HOLD HARMLESS Southern Maryland Volleyball Club, their officers, officials, agents and/or employees, other participants, sponsoring agencies, sponsors, advertisers, and if applicable, owners and lessors of premises used to conduct the event (RELEASEES), WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL INJURY, DISABILITY, DEATH, or loss or damage to person or property, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
I HAVE READ THIS RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK AGREEMENT, FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS, UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE GIVEN UP SUBSTANTIAL RIGHTS BY SIGNING IT, AND SIGN IT FREELY AND VOLUNTARILY WITHOUT ANY INDUCEMENT.
