Waiver of Liability SPORTS ACADEMY LLC (hereinafter referred to as "SPORTS ACADEMY") is a multi-purpose sports, training, and recreation center that provides a wide variety of sports and activities for participants of all ages both onsite (the “Main Campus”) and offsite at other facilities that may be owned, leased, operated and/or used by SPORTS ACADEMY (collectively referred to herein as the “Other Facilities”, and together with the Main Campus, referred to herein as the “Facilities”). Some of the activities offered include, without limitation, instruction, leagues, tournaments, fitness activities (including yoga, individualized personal training and group fitness classes), self-defense (Close Quarters Defense®) classes, parent/child classes, summer camps, birthday parties, field trips, corporate outings, team building events, and company picnics (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Activities"). The Facilities are also available for individual, team and/or group rental. Some of the many benefits of SPORTS ACADEMY Activities include improved fitness, opportunity to compete and excel, improved self-confidence, better health, increased sense of belonging, wholesome recreation, social interaction, improved self-image, weight loss, and improved appearance. The physical exertion required ranges from mild to very strenuous, depending on the activity and the motivation of the participant; the skill level required ranges from beginner to highly advanced, depending on the activity and competition; and the competitiveness of the activity ranges from moderate to highly competitive. Therefore, the individual participant is able to select Activities that fit his or her needs, abilities, and interests.While the many benefits of these Activities are apparent, SPORTS ACADEMY and its staff regard participant safety as a top priority and feel it is important that the Participant/Parent [either an adult Participant OR a minor Participant and his/her parent(s)/guardian(s)] understand that there are risks inherent in all physical activity. SPORTS ACADEMY takes great care to reduce the risks associated with the many physical activities offered at the Facilities. However, regardless of the care taken to avoid injuries, some risks are inherent in any physical activity and cannot be totally eliminated without changing the nature of the activity. A few examples of the many inherent risks include, but are not limited to, heat-related illness; over-exertion; imperfect playing surfaces; failure to adhere to posted rules or warnings (Note: coaches or supervisors may be present for certain activities, but the Participant/Parent should have no expectation of supervision over an area or activity unless expressly specified otherwise); collisions with objects or co-participants; falls to the playing surface; unexpected equipment failure or malfunction (e.g., obstacles, fitness equipment, pitching machines, etc.); careless or erratic acts by co-participants; errors in judgment/supervision of supervisors, other employees, or officials; and being struck by an object (e.g. ball, puck, bat, stick, etc.). There are also inherent risks that are specific to a sport or activity – such as being kicked by a co-participant in soccer; being hit by a ball in basketball or volleyball; body contact in basketball; and, in the case of Close Quarters Defense training and instruction, physical contact including, but not limited to, kicking, punching, elbowing and other intentional acts that are otherwise intended to injure others. There are even inherent risks in being a spectator of a sport (e.g. being hit by a ball or participant, falling down stairs, etc.) or in non-sports Activities (i.e., birthday parties, camps, or team-building activities) and injuries can occur due to the enthusiasm of participants, reckless conduct, or failure to follow posted rules. The undersigned acknowledges that the Participant should be evaluated by his/her physician prior to participating in the Activities.SPORTS ACADEMY believes that it is important that the Participant/Parent understand that these types of injuries can occur. Minor injuries are the most common and include, but are not limited to, muscle soreness, headaches, sprains/strains, abrasions, and bruises. Serious injuries are less common, but do occur occasionally. They include, but are not limited to, broken bones, concussions, torn ligaments or cartilage, eye injuries, cuts, and internal injuries. Catastrophic injuries are very rare, but SPORTS ACADEMY believes that every Participant/Parent should be aware of the slight possibility. Catastrophic injuries may include permanent disability and/or disfigurement, brain injury, paralysis and even death.The undersigned Participant/Parent warrants and represents that he/she possesses the authority to execute this Waiver of Liability/Release of Claims on behalf of the above-named Participant. Participant/Parent acknowledges that Participant will be participating in and/or attending Activities at one or more of the Facilities.ASSUMPTION OF RISKS: I, the undersigned Participant/Parent, understand that all Activities provided by SPORTS ACADEMY at the Facilities inherently involve the risk of bodily injury, including death, regardless of the care taken by SPORTS ACADEMY.
