 I am the legal guardian and/or Parent of the below named child (“Participant”). I enter into this Liability Waiver and Indemnification Agreement (“Waiver”) on my behalf, my spouse’s behalf, the Child’s behalf (collectively, “Participants”), in exchange for the Participants being allowed to join in any way with the Rising Star Athletics program run by BAK, LLC (formerly known as Rising Star Athletics LLC) (“Company”) and any and all related events and activities of the Company (Activities).

Participants are in good health and in proper physical condition to participate in all Activities.

I understand the serious risk of injury and illness to the Participants from the Activities, which may be caused by the negligence or actions or inactions of myself, those of others participating, the Company, the child, or the conditions of the event.  Risk of Serious Illness includes but is not limited to all communicable diseases such as MRSA, influenza, and COVID-19 or any subsequent strains. Risk of Serious Bodily Injury includes but is not limited to permanent disability, paralysis, and death. Unknown Risks exists and there may be other risks either not known to me or not readily foreseeable at this time.

I understand that while there are rules, equipment, and/or personal discipline to help reduce the risks of serious injury and illness, that such risks do exist. The Participants agree to abide by all rules and terms.

I agree to immediately inform the Company in writing if any statements in this Waiver change throughout the course of the Participants’ participation in the Activities.

If at any time I believe any activity to be unsafe for any Participant, I will immediately discontinue the Participants’ participation in the Activities.

I fully accept and assume all such risks and all responsibility for losses, costs, and damages I incur as a result of my participation, my spouse’s participation, and the child’s participation in the Activities.

ASSUMPTION OF RISK.  All Participants knowingly and freely assume all risks, both known and unknown, even if such risk or injury arises from the negligence of the Company or others, and the Participants assume full responsibility and liability for their participation in all Activities.

RELASE AND HOLD HARMLESS. All Participants release and hold harmless the Company from and against any damages, liabilities, claims, demands, or losses from all injuries, illnesses, disability, death, or loss or damages to person or property related to the Activities of the Company, whether arising from the negligence of the Company (including any and all negligence in any rescue operation) or otherwise, to the full extent permitted by law.

INDEMNIFICATION. All Participants hereby indemnify the Company from any and all liabilities, claims, demands, losses, or damages related to Participant(s)’ activities with the Company in any manner, even if such liability arose due to the negligence of the Company (including negligence in any rescue operations), to the full extent permitted by law. This applies to any claims made by the Participants or on behalf of the Participants. This indemnification includes but is not limited to all expenses, attorneys fees, loss liabilities, damages, or costs the Company incurs as a result of any such claim(s).
