THESA VOLLEYBALL 

Assumption of the Risk and Waiver of Liability Relating to Coronavirus/COVID-19 

   The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies recommend social distancing and have, in many locations, prohibited the congregation of groups of people. 

   TEXAS HOME EDUCATORS SPORTS ASSOCIATION (THESA) has put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19; however, THESA cannot guarantee that you or your child(ren) will not become infected with COVID-19. Further, attending THESA events could increase your risk and your child(ren)’s risk of contracting COVID-19. 

If you are uncomfortable at this time to engage in Tryouts or other workouts, please contact us to schedule a virtual evaluation.

    By signing this agreement, I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that my child(ren) and I may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by attending THESA EVENTS and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death. I understand that the risk of becoming exposed to or infected by COVID-19 at the THESA events may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of myself and others, including, but not limited to, THESA organization, volunteers, and program participants and their families. 

    I voluntarily agree to assume all of the foregoing risks and accept sole responsibility for any injury to my child(ren) or myself (including, but not limited to, personal injury, disability, and death), illness, damage, loss, claim, liability, or expense, of any kind, that I or my child(ren) may experience or incur in connection with my
child(ren)’s attendance at THESA EVENTS or participation in THESA EVENT programming (“Claims”). On my behalf, and on behalf of my children, I hereby release, covenant not to sue, discharge, and hold harmless THESA, its volunteer staff, agents, and representatives, of and from the Claims, including all liabilities, claims, actions, damages, costs or expenses of any kind arising out of or relating thereto.
