CYOJ Hit Lab Membership — Assumption of Risk

This Section 1 applies when the Participant / Athlete is using CYOJ Hit Lab under a membership or membership-based access arrangement. The specific membership plan, price, promotional rate, billing terms, included benefits, usage limits, renewal terms, access privileges, and other commercial terms are governed by the applicable membership, enrollment, checkout, invoice, promotion, or other written agreement and are not established by this Assumption of Risk.

CYOJ Hit Lab is operated by Create Your Own Journey Foundation and is located at 576 Patterson Dr NW, Suite 120, Salem, Oregon 97304.

Relationship to More Specific Activities. This Membership Section 1 addresses risks associated with ordinary membership-based access and use of CYOJ Hit Lab. If the Participant / Athlete participates in a separately identified lesson, training session, tryout, Academy activity, non-Hit Lab team practice, private party or event, camp, clinic, team activity, or other program for which a more specific activity-specific Assumption of Risk applies, that more specific risk disclosure also applies to that activity. Nothing in this Membership Section 1 is intended to replace a more specific risk disclosure for a separately identified activity.

A CYOJ Hit Lab membership may provide access to batting cages, pitching areas, bullpens, training lanes, athletic training spaces, balls, bats, pitching machines, ball-feeding equipment, nets, screens, bases, mounds, training aids, weights, resistance equipment, performance technology, video or data systems, and other athletic, fitness, instructional, recreational, or facility resources made available by CYOJ Hit Lab.

Depending on the applicable membership and authorized facility use, these resources may also include batting tees, automated or manual ball-feeding systems, medicine balls, radar equipment, sensors, tracking devices, displays, software, mobile applications, performance-analysis tools, and other current or future athletic, fitness, training, or technology systems made available by CYOJ Hit Lab.

Membership activities may include, but are not limited to, hitting, pitching, catching, throwing, fielding, running, sliding, agility exercises, conditioning, strength or fitness activities, stretching, drills, instruction, independent practice, technology-assisted training, demonstrations, evaluations, and other baseball-, softball-, athletic-, fitness-, or recreational activities permitted by the applicable membership.

Membership activities may also include, when permitted by the applicable membership or authorized use, bunting, bullpen work, receiving pitches, receiving throws, sprinting, jumping, warmups, resistance exercises, supervised practice, ball retrieval, equipment setup, and other activities reasonably associated with the authorized baseball, softball, athletic, fitness, training, or recreational use.

I understand and acknowledge that use of CYOJ Hit Lab facilities, equipment, technology, training areas, and membership privileges involves inherent and other risks of injury, including the specific risks disclosed in this Section 1.

These risks include, but are not limited to:

• Ball-impact risks: being struck by a pitched, thrown, batted, tipped, fouled, deflected, dropped, machine-fed, or ricocheting baseball, softball, or other training object, including balls traveling at high speed or arriving unexpectedly;
• Bat and swing-zone risks: being struck by a swinging, thrown, dropped, broken, or released bat, including contact occurring during hitting, warmups, demonstrations, drills, ball retrieval, or movement near an active hitting area;
• Pitching, catching, and throwing risks: injuries associated with pitching, catching, receiving pitches, throwing, repeated throwing, bullpen activity, foul tips, blocked or deflected pitches, sudden or high-velocity throws, and repetitive upper-extremity activity;
• Running, sliding, fielding, jumping, and movement risks: injuries associated with running, sprinting, sliding, jumping, fielding, receiving throws, lifting, stretching, agility exercises, conditioning, sudden stops, changes of direction, awkward landings, repetitive athletic movement, or other physical activity;
• Physical-exertion and overuse risks: muscle soreness, fatigue, dizziness, overexertion, dehydration, muscle strains, ligament sprains, dislocations, fractures, tendon or joint injuries, repetitive-motion injuries, overuse injuries, and injuries involving the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, back, hip, knee, ankle, or other body part;
• Pitching-machine and ball-feeding risks: unexpected pitch speed, direction, height, timing, misfeed, jam, rebound, malfunction, adjustment, startup, shutdown, moving parts, ball loading, or improper or unauthorized operation;
• Strength, conditioning, and resistance-training risks: loss of balance, dropped or shifting equipment, unexpected or improper resistance, fatigue, exertion, muscle or joint injury, and injuries associated with weights, bands, resistance devices, medicine balls, body-weight exercises, or other strength and conditioning equipment or drills;
• Ricochet, escaped-object, and adjacent-activity risks: baseballs, softballs, bats, training objects, or other equipment rebounding from, passing around, or traveling through or beyond nets, screens, floors, walls, ceilings, doors, support structures, pitching machines, bases, mounds, or other equipment, including balls, bats, equipment, or other objects leaving designated training areas or entering from an adjacent cage, lane, bullpen, or training area;
• Protective-equipment and barrier limitations: helmets, face protection, catcher protective equipment, nets, protective screens, barriers, padding, and other protective equipment or structures may reduce certain risks but cannot eliminate the possibility of injury;
• Collision and contact risks: contact or collisions with other Participants / Athletes, members, coaches, trainers, staff members, guests, spectators, walls, doors, nets, screens, bases, mounds, furniture, structures, equipment, or other objects;
• Movement, surface, and facility-condition risks: slips, trips, falls, collisions, loss of balance, awkward landings, or contact with hard, artificial, wet, uneven, obstructed, loose, or otherwise changing surfaces, including turf, mats, mounds, thresholds, flooring, balls, equipment, wet areas, or other walking or activity surfaces;
• Head, face, eye, dental, chest, and body-impact risks: cuts, bruises, facial injuries, eye injuries, dental injuries, head injuries, concussions, chest or abdominal injuries, and other trauma caused by balls, bats, collisions, falls, equipment, or athletic movement;
• Equipment risks: equipment malfunction, breakage, unexpected movement, improper setup, improper adjustment, improper fit, misuse, unauthorized use, damaged equipment, or other equipment-related conditions occurring during participation;
• Technology and training-system risks: power loss, connectivity loss, inaccurate or incomplete readings, software or sensor errors, unexpected system behavior, unavailable systems, or other failures involving radar, video, cameras, displays, sensors, tracking devices, software, performance-analysis tools, or other training technology;
• Other-user risks: injury resulting from another person's athletic activity, improper or unauthorized equipment use, unexpected movement, failure to follow instructions, careless conduct, or presence within or near an active training area;
• Independent-use risks: injury, equipment problems, unsafe conditions, or medical events occurring during independent practice or other authorized use when a coach, trainer, or CYOJ Hit Lab employee is not continuously and individually supervising the Participant / Athlete;
• Authorized unstaffed or after-hours risks: when such access is permitted, delayed recognition of or response to an injury, medical emergency, equipment issue, unsafe condition, unauthorized entry, or other incident because CYOJ Hit Lab personnel may not be physically present;
• Illness and communicable-infection risks: exposure to illness or communicable infection through shared facilities, equipment, surfaces, seating areas, restrooms, entrances, common areas, or close contact with other persons;
• Serious-injury risks: serious bodily injury, permanent impairment or disability, paralysis, or death; and
• Property risks: loss of or damage to personal property.

Independent, Staffed & Unstaffed Use

I understand that membership access may include periods when a Participant / Athlete is practicing independently, practicing with another authorized person, receiving instruction, attending a scheduled program, or otherwise using the facility without continuous individual supervision by CYOJ Hit Lab personnel.

CYOJ Hit Lab does not guarantee continuous individual supervision of members or Participants / Athletes. The presence of employees, coaches, trainers, other members, security cameras, access-control systems, or other persons does not mean that the Participant / Athlete is being continuously observed or individually supervised.

CYOJ Hit Lab may in the future offer staffed, partially staffed, unstaffed, extended-hours, or after-hours access to eligible persons. Eligibility, permitted hours, areas, equipment, reservation requirements, supervision requirements, and access methods may vary according to the applicable membership, booking, program, age, safety requirements, facility operations, or other authorized arrangement.

If and when staffed, partially staffed, unstaffed, extended-hours, or after-hours access is offered, the applicable eligibility requirements, age restrictions, supervision requirements, permitted hours, authorized areas, equipment restrictions, reservation requirements, and access methods remain subject to the applicable membership, program, booking, facility rules, safety requirements, and operational conditions.

I understand that use of the facility during unstaffed or after-hours periods may involve additional risks because CYOJ Hit Lab personnel may not be physically present to immediately observe an injury, equipment issue, unsafe condition, medical emergency, unauthorized entry, or other incident.

During any authorized unstaffed or after-hours use, the Participant / Athlete remains responsible for complying with applicable safety rules, using only authorized areas and equipment, stopping use of damaged or unsafe equipment, and seeking emergency assistance when reasonably necessary.

During an emergency or suspected medical emergency, the Participant / Athlete or other responsible person should call 911 or obtain other appropriate emergency assistance when reasonably necessary. Access to the facility, the presence of security cameras, or the use of an access-control system does not guarantee immediate detection of or response to an emergency.

Minors & Supervision

CYOJ Hit Lab does not provide general childcare or custodial supervision merely because a person holds a membership or is present at the facility.

Except when a minor Participant / Athlete is participating in a specifically scheduled coach- or staff-supervised activity in which CYOJ Hit Lab has expressly undertaken supervision for that scheduled activity, a minor must remain under the supervision required by CYOJ Hit Lab rules, the applicable membership or program, and the circumstances.

Unless CYOJ Hit Lab expressly authorizes otherwise under an applicable program or access arrangement, a minor Participant / Athlete may not use unstaffed or after-hours facility access without an authorized responsible adult when adult supervision is required.

I understand that a coach, trainer, or staff member supervising a scheduled lesson, practice, team activity, camp, clinic, or other program is responsible only for reasonable supervision within the scope and duration of that activity and does not become the Participant / Athlete's legal guardian, general custodian, or general medical decision-maker.

When CYOJ Hit Lab has not expressly undertaken supervision for a scheduled activity, the parent, legal guardian, or other adult responsible under the applicable membership, program, or facility rules remains responsible for providing the supervision required for the minor Participant / Athlete.

Technology, Machines & Training Systems

CYOJ Hit Lab may provide or permit use of pitching machines, automated ball-feeding systems, training technology, video systems, sensors, tracking devices, displays, software, mobile applications, performance-analysis tools, and other current or future training systems.

I understand that technology and automated equipment may malfunction, lose power or connectivity, produce inaccurate or incomplete information, operate unexpectedly, become unavailable, or require adjustment, maintenance, repair, software updates, or temporary removal from service.

Participants / Athletes must use machines, technology, and training equipment only as intended and in accordance with applicable instructions, warnings, restrictions, and authorized settings.

Membership does not guarantee that any particular machine, technology platform, cage, bullpen, training area, or piece of equipment will be available during every visit.

Performance measurements, video analysis, radar readings, sensor outputs, statistics, projections, or other technology-generated information are training and informational tools only and do not constitute medical diagnosis, medical advice, or a determination that a Participant / Athlete is physically able to participate safely.

Facility Conditions, Other Users & Operational Changes

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab is a shared athletic facility and that other members, Participants / Athletes, coaches, trainers, teams, lessons, practices, events, rentals, guests, spectators, staff members, or other authorized users may be present and engaging in athletic activity at the same time.

Multiple cages, pitching areas, bullpens, training lanes, or other activity areas may be active simultaneously. The Participant / Athlete must remain alert to surrounding activity and must not enter another person's swing path, throwing lane, pitching area, machine-use area, or other active space unless authorized and reasonably safe to do so.

Access to particular areas, cages, equipment, machines, or technology may be affected by reservations, lessons, team practices, events, maintenance, repairs, staffing, safety concerns, emergencies, equipment failures, capacity limits, closures, or other operational conditions.

CYOJ Hit Lab may temporarily restrict an area, equipment item, activity, or facility access when reasonably necessary for safety, maintenance, repair, scheduling, emergencies, or facility operations.

An area, cage, machine, training system, or equipment item that has been closed, restricted, tagged, blocked, disabled, or identified as unavailable or unsafe must not be used or entered until CYOJ Hit Lab authorizes use.

Protective Equipment & Personal Responsibility

I understand that appropriate protective equipment may reduce, but cannot eliminate, the risk of injury.

The Participant / Athlete is responsible for using required protective equipment, using equipment properly, remaining alert to surrounding activity, staying out of unauthorized or active areas, and following posted warnings, equipment instructions, occupancy limits, and reasonable directions from authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel.

The Participant / Athlete must promptly stop an activity and report damaged, malfunctioning, improperly adjusted, missing, unstable, improperly configured, or unsafe equipment or another significant unsafe condition.

The Participant / Athlete's responsibility to follow facility rules, use required protective equipment, and report observed equipment or safety concerns does not transfer to the Participant / Athlete any legal duty that applicable law places on CYOJ Hit Lab concerning the maintenance or inspection of safety equipment and does not waive any claim that applicable Oregon law does not permit to be waived.

Before entering an active hitting, pitching, throwing, or machine-use area to retrieve balls, adjust equipment, move a screen, or perform another task, the Participant / Athlete must first ensure that the applicable hitting, pitching, throwing, or machine operation has stopped and that it is reasonably safe to enter.

The Participant / Athlete should not participate contrary to medical advice or while an injury, illness, symptom, medication effect, physical limitation, fatigue, impairment, or other condition makes participation unsafe.

The Participant / Athlete should, when reasonably able, stop or reduce participation and promptly notify an appropriate responsible person if the Participant / Athlete experiences significant pain, dizziness, difficulty breathing, suspected concussion symptoms, unusual weakness, illness, injury, or another concerning condition during membership-based activity.

Access-Controlled Facility Use

CYOJ Hit Lab may use physical or electronic methods to control or verify facility access, membership status, reservations, or eligibility. These methods may include membership cards, QR codes, barcodes, mobile credentials, temporary codes, PINs, key cards, key fobs, tap-enabled credentials, or other authorized access methods adopted in the future.

Access through an authorized credential or access-control system does not mean that CYOJ Hit Lab has inspected the Participant / Athlete's physical condition, determined that an activity is safe for that individual, or undertaken continuous supervision of that person.

A temporary or event-specific access method may be limited to a particular person, booking, date, time, team practice, event, lesson, rental, or other authorized activity and does not itself create continuing access rights.

Access credentials may be person-specific or limited to an authorized household, Participant / Athlete, booking, program, or other approved use. Credentials may not be shared, transferred, duplicated, or used to admit an unauthorized person except when expressly permitted by CYOJ Hit Lab.

No Guarantee of Athletic Results

I understand that membership, facility access, instruction, training technology, coaching, machines, programs, or other CYOJ Hit Lab services do not guarantee any particular athletic result, performance improvement, team placement, playing time, position, recruiting opportunity, scholarship, statistic, velocity, exit velocity, ranking, or competitive outcome.

Voluntary Participation & Acceptance of Risk

I voluntarily choose to participate in, or permit the Participant / Athlete to participate in, activities available through the applicable CYOJ Hit Lab membership and knowingly accept and assume the inherent and other risks described in this Section 1 and reasonably associated with athletic activity, facility use, equipment, technology, other users, independent practice, supervised practice, and authorized staffed or unstaffed access.

For clarity, I understand and acknowledge the specific risks disclosed in this Section 1 that are reasonably associated with the membership-based activities actually undertaken by the Participant / Athlete. If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily choose to participate with knowledge of those disclosed risks. If I am the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily permit the minor Participant / Athlete to participate with knowledge of those disclosed risks.

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab cannot eliminate every risk or guarantee that an injury, medical emergency, equipment failure, property loss, or other incident will not occur.

The Participant / Athlete must follow all applicable CYOJ Hit Lab facility rules, safety requirements, equipment instructions, access restrictions, posted warnings, and reasonable directions provided by authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel.

Section 2 separately governs the scope of any Release of Liability, including any release of claims for ordinary negligence arising from the sport, fitness, recreational, or training activities and the risks disclosed in this Section 1. Nothing in this Section 1 is intended to expand Section 2, eliminate any limitation or exception stated in Section 2, transfer a nonwaivable legal duty to the Participant / Athlete, or waive any claim that applicable Oregon law does not permit to be waived.

Membership Pricing, Promotions & Commercial Terms

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab may offer different membership plans, program memberships, household or family memberships, Academy-related memberships, team arrangements, training packages, promotional offers, discounted rates, scholarships, special pricing, legacy pricing, introductory pricing, or other authorized commercial arrangements from time to time.

The specific price, promotional or discounted rate, billing schedule, payment frequency, initial term, minimum commitment, renewal term, included benefits, usage limits, reservation rights, access privileges, and other commercial terms that apply to a membership are the terms presented to and accepted by the purchaser through the applicable enrollment, checkout, invoice, membership agreement, promotion, payment authorization, or other written documentation.

Eligibility for one membership price, discount, promotion, package, benefit, or special arrangement does not entitle another member or purchaser to the same terms.

A promotional or discounted rate may be limited by eligibility requirements, enrollment dates, program participation, family or household relationship, Academy participation, team status, duration, availability, or other terms disclosed with the applicable offer.

Unless the applicable written membership or enrollment terms expressly provide otherwise, a price change will not increase a fixed membership rate during an already-committed fixed-price membership term.

CYOJ Hit Lab may establish a different price for a future renewal term, a later membership term, or a future month-to-month period, subject to the applicable membership agreement, required advance notice, cancellation rights, and applicable law.

If a membership automatically renews, the applicable enrollment, checkout, membership agreement, or renewal disclosure will state the renewal structure, recurring charge or method for determining the applicable renewal price, renewal-term length, cancellation procedure, and other required terms.

Renewal pricing may be subject to change for future renewal terms. A change to future renewal pricing does not authorize CYOJ Hit Lab to retroactively change charges already earned or to disregard an expressly guaranteed fixed rate for an existing term.

Membership benefits, access privileges, reservation allowances, discounts, included services, and similar program features may vary by membership type. Reasonable operational features may also be modified prospectively as CYOJ Hit Lab facilities, technology, equipment, scheduling systems, access systems, programs, and services evolve, subject to any specific contractual commitments and applicable law.

This waiver does not itself establish or modify the purchaser's financial obligation, automatic-renewal authorization, or cancellation rights. Those matters are governed by the applicable written membership, enrollment, checkout, payment, cancellation, and renewal terms accepted in connection with the purchase.

Completion of payment or checkout does not replace the requirement that each adult Participant / Athlete—or the parent or legal guardian of each minor Participant / Athlete—complete the applicable CYOJ Hit Lab waiver before participation.

One-Time Batting/Pitching Cage Rental — Participant / Athlete Assumption of Risk

This Section applies when the Participant / Athlete uses CYOJ Hit Lab under a one-time batting cage, pitching cage, bullpen, or related training-area rental or reservation for baseball, softball, athletic training, fitness, or related recreational activity.

I understand that use of a batting cage, pitching cage, bullpen, or related training area involves risks associated with the sport, fitness, recreational, or training activity, including the risks described below. The Participant / Athlete may use or be near baseballs, softballs, bats, batting tees, pitching machines, ball-feeding devices, pitching mounds, bases, nets, protective screens, training aids, radar or performance technology, and other athletic or facility equipment. Other cages, lanes, bullpens, training areas, Participants / Athletes, coaches, staff members, guests, or authorized users may also be active in the facility at the same time.

Rental activities may include, but are not limited to, hitting, bunting, pitching, catching, throwing, fielding, receiving throws, warmups, drills, ball retrieval, equipment setup, authorized pitching-machine operation, and other baseball-, softball-, fitness-, or athletic-training activities permitted by the rental or reservation.

I understand and acknowledge that the Participant / Athlete's use of and presence in or near the rented area may expose the Participant / Athlete to risks including, but not limited to:

• Ball-impact risks: being struck by a pitched, thrown, batted, tipped, fouled, deflected, dropped, machine-fed, or ricocheting baseball, softball, or other training object, including balls traveling at high speed or arriving unexpectedly;
• Bat and swing-zone risks: being struck by a swinging, thrown, dropped, broken, or released bat, including contact occurring during batting, warmups, drills, or movement near an active hitting area;
• Pitching-machine and ball-feeding risks: unexpected pitch speed, direction, height, timing, misfeed, jam, rebound, malfunction, adjustment, startup, shutdown, moving parts, or improper or unauthorized operation;
• Ricochet and adjacent-activity risks: balls or other objects rebounding from or passing around nets, screens, floors, walls, ceilings, doors, support structures, pitching machines, mounds, bases, or other equipment, including balls or equipment entering from an adjacent cage or training area;
• Net, screen, and protective-equipment limitations: nets, protective screens, barriers, helmets, face protection, and other protective equipment may reduce certain risks but cannot eliminate the possibility of injury;
• Collision and contact risks: contact or collisions with other Participants / Athletes, coaches, catchers, pitchers, hitters, staff members, spectators, guests, walls, doors, nets, screens, mounds, structures, equipment, or other objects;
• Movement and surface risks: slips, trips, falls, loss of balance, awkward landings, sudden movement, or contact with turf, mats, mounds, thresholds, balls, equipment, wet areas, uneven areas, or other playing or walking surfaces;
• Physical-exertion and overuse risks: fatigue, dehydration, dizziness, overexertion, muscle strains, ligament sprains, dislocations, fractures, tendon or joint injuries, repetitive-motion or overuse injuries, and injuries involving the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, back, hip, knee, ankle, or other body part;
• Head, face, eye, dental, and chest-impact risks: cuts, bruises, facial injuries, eye injuries, dental injuries, head injuries, concussions, chest or abdominal injuries, and other trauma caused by balls, bats, collisions, falls, equipment, or athletic movement;
• Equipment risks: equipment breakage, unexpected movement, improper fit, improper adjustment, improper setup, misuse, unauthorized use, or malfunction involving athletic, training, or facility equipment;
• Illness and communicable-infection risks: exposure to illness or communicable infection through close contact with other persons or through shared facilities, equipment, surfaces, seating areas, or other common spaces;
• Serious-injury risks: serious bodily injury, permanent impairment or disability, paralysis, or death; and
• Property risks: loss of or damage to personal property.

Pitching Machines, Active Cages, and Ball Retrieval. I understand that pitching machines and ball-feeding devices can deliver balls at significant speed and may pitch or feed unexpectedly because of settings, loading, ball condition, adjustment, malfunction, misfeed, or other conditions. The Participant / Athlete must not adjust, load, approach, enter, retrieve balls from, or otherwise interact with a pitching machine or ball-feeding device except as authorized and in accordance with applicable instructions and CYOJ Hit Lab rules. Before entering an active hitting, pitching, throwing, or machine-use area to retrieve balls, adjust equipment, or move a screen, the Participant / Athlete must first ensure that the applicable activity and machine operation have stopped and that it is reasonably safe to enter.

Protective Equipment and Facility Rules. I understand that appropriate protective equipment may reduce some risks but cannot prevent every injury. The Participant / Athlete must use protective equipment when required by applicable CYOJ Hit Lab rules, remain alert to active hitting, pitching, throwing, and machine-use areas, stay within authorized areas, follow posted warnings and reasonable safety instructions, and stop using equipment that appears damaged, unstable, improperly configured, malfunctioning, or unsafe.

Supervision During the Rental. I understand that a one-time rental or reservation does not necessarily include continuous individual supervision, coaching, or instruction by CYOJ Hit Lab personnel. The presence of employees, coaches, security cameras, access-control systems, or other persons does not mean that the Participant / Athlete is being continuously observed or individually supervised. When CYOJ Hit Lab rules, the applicable rental or reservation terms, the Participant / Athlete's age, or the circumstances require adult supervision, the responsible supervising adult must provide reasonable supervision within the scope of that person's role.

If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily choose to participate in the one-time rental. If I am the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily permit the minor Participant / Athlete to participate. I understand and acknowledge the risks disclosed in this Section and voluntarily choose, or permit the minor Participant / Athlete, to participate with knowledge of those risks.

Section 2 separately governs the scope of any Release of Liability, including any release of claims for ordinary negligence arising from the risks disclosed in this Section. Disclosure or acknowledgment of equipment, protective-equipment, facility, or other risks in this Section does not expand Section 2, eliminate any limitation or exception stated in Section 2, or waive any claim that Oregon law does not permit to be waived.

Baseball Academy Tryouts — Participant / Athlete Assumption of Risk

This Section applies when the Participant / Athlete participates in CYOJ Hit Lab Baseball Academy tryouts, evaluations, or related tryout activities conducted by or on behalf of CYOJ Hit Lab. Tryouts may take place at CYOJ Hit Lab, 576 Patterson Dr NW, Suite 120, Salem, Oregon 97304; Geer Community Park, 241 Geer Dr NE, Salem, Oregon 97301; or another indoor or outdoor location communicated by CYOJ Hit Lab.

I understand that baseball tryouts, athletic evaluations, and related training activities involve risks associated with baseball, athletic movement, physical exertion, equipment, playing surfaces, weather or environmental conditions, and the presence and actions of other persons.

Tryout activities may include, but are not limited to, hitting, bunting, pitching, bullpen work, catching, receiving pitches, throwing, fielding, receiving throws, base running, sprinting, sliding, agility drills, warmups, conditioning, strength or fitness activities, athletic evaluations, demonstrations, coach-directed drills, and the use of batting cages, pitching areas, pitching machines or ball-feeding devices, baseballs, bats, batting tees, bases, pitching mounds, nets, protective screens, training aids, radar or performance technology, and other athletic or facility equipment.

I understand and acknowledge that the Participant / Athlete's participation in and presence around Baseball Academy tryout activities may expose the Participant / Athlete to risks including, but not limited to:

• Ball-impact risks: being struck by a pitched, thrown, batted, tipped, fouled, deflected, dropped, machine-fed, or ricocheting baseball or other training object, including balls traveling at high speed or arriving unexpectedly;
• Bat and swing-zone risks: being struck by a swinging, thrown, dropped, broken, or released bat, including contact occurring during batting, warmups, drills, or movement near an active hitting area;
• Pitching, catching, and throwing risks: injuries associated with pitching, catching, receiving pitches, throwing, repeated throwing, bullpen activity, foul tips, blocked or deflected pitches, sudden or high-velocity throws, and repetitive upper-extremity activity;
• Base-running, sliding, and fielding risks: collisions, falls, awkward landings, contact with bases, mounds, fences, other Participants / Athletes, coaches, or equipment, and injuries occurring while running, sprinting, changing direction, sliding, diving, fielding, or receiving throws;
• Pitching-machine and ball-feeding risks: unexpected pitch speed, direction, height, timing, misfeed, jam, rebound, malfunction, adjustment, startup, shutdown, moving parts, or improper or unauthorized operation;
• Ricochet and adjacent-activity risks: balls or other objects rebounding from or passing around nets, screens, floors, walls, ceilings, fences, backstops, support structures, pitching machines, mounds, bases, or other equipment, including balls or equipment entering from an adjacent field, cage, lane, or training area;
• Net, screen, and protective-equipment limitations: helmets, face protection, catcher protective equipment, nets, protective screens, fences, backstops, barriers, and other protective equipment or structures may reduce certain risks but cannot eliminate the possibility of injury;
• Collision and contact risks: contact or collisions with other Participants / Athletes, coaches, evaluators, catchers, pitchers, fielders, runners, staff members, volunteers, spectators, walls, fences, dugouts, benches, nets, screens, bases, mounds, structures, equipment, or other objects;
• Playing-surface and facility risks: slips, trips, falls, loss of balance, awkward landings, or contact with natural grass, artificial turf, dirt, clay, mats, concrete, mounds, bases, thresholds, holes, depressions, wet or muddy areas, hard or uneven areas, loose material, balls, equipment, or other changing field or facility conditions;
• Weather and environmental risks: heat, cold, rain, wind, sun exposure, dehydration, lightning or rapidly changing weather, poor air quality, and other outdoor or environmental conditions associated with an outdoor tryout location;
• Physical-exertion and overuse risks: fatigue, dizziness, overexertion, dehydration, muscle strains, ligament sprains, dislocations, fractures, tendon or joint injuries, repetitive-motion or overuse injuries, and injuries involving the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, back, hip, knee, ankle, or other body part;
• Head, face, eye, dental, and chest-impact risks: cuts, bruises, facial injuries, eye injuries, dental injuries, head injuries, concussions, chest or abdominal injuries, and other trauma caused by balls, bats, collisions, falls, equipment, or athletic movement;
• Equipment risks: equipment breakage, unexpected movement, improper fit, improper adjustment, improper setup, misuse, unauthorized use, or malfunction involving athletic, training, or facility equipment;
• Illness and communicable-infection risks: exposure to illness or communicable infection through close contact with other persons or through shared facilities, equipment, surfaces, dugouts, benches, seating areas, or other common spaces;
• Serious-injury risks: serious bodily injury, permanent impairment or disability, paralysis, or death; and
• Property risks: loss of or damage to personal property.

Supervision, Instruction, and Evaluation. CYOJ Hit Lab coaches, evaluators, staff members, or authorized volunteers may organize, demonstrate, direct, observe, and evaluate tryout activities and may provide reasonable supervision within the scope of the tryout. I understand that such supervision, instruction, rules, protective equipment, and safety precautions can reduce some risks but cannot eliminate every risk of injury. The presence of coaches, evaluators, staff members, or volunteers does not mean that every Participant / Athlete will be continuously and individually observed at every moment.

Protective Equipment and Safety Rules. The Participant / Athlete must use protective equipment when required by applicable CYOJ Hit Lab, facility, team, league, or tryout rules; remain alert to active hitting, pitching, throwing, fielding, running, and machine-use areas; follow posted warnings and reasonable safety instructions; and promptly report damaged, improperly fitting, missing, unstable, malfunctioning, or unsafe equipment or conditions to an authorized coach, evaluator, staff member, or facility representative.

Third-Party Fields and Facilities. When a tryout is conducted at a park, school, field, facility, or other location not operated by CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation, the Participant / Athlete may also be subject to the rules, conditions, restrictions, and operational decisions of that location. Field and facility conditions may change because of weather, maintenance, prior use, other activities, or circumstances outside CYOJ Hit Lab's direct control.

No Guarantee of Team Placement. I understand that participation in a Baseball Academy tryout or evaluation does not guarantee selection, roster placement, position, playing time, team assignment, scholarship, recruiting opportunity, or any other athletic outcome.

If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily choose to participate in the Baseball Academy tryout. If I am the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily permit the minor Participant / Athlete to participate. I understand and acknowledge the risks disclosed in this Section and voluntarily choose, or permit the minor Participant / Athlete, to participate with knowledge of those risks.

Section 2 separately governs the scope of any Release of Liability, including any release of claims for ordinary negligence arising from the risks disclosed in this Section. Disclosure or acknowledgment of equipment, protective-equipment, field, facility, weather, environmental, supervision, or other risks in this Section does not expand Section 2, eliminate any limitation or exception stated in Section 2, or waive any claim that Oregon law does not permit to be waived.

Softball Academy Tryouts — Participant / Athlete Assumption of Risk

This Section applies when the Participant / Athlete participates in CYOJ Hit Lab Softball Academy tryouts, evaluations, or related tryout activities conducted by or on behalf of CYOJ Hit Lab. Tryouts may take place at CYOJ Hit Lab, 576 Patterson Dr NW, Suite 120, Salem, Oregon 97304, or at another indoor or outdoor location communicated by CYOJ Hit Lab.

I understand that softball tryouts, athletic evaluations, and related training activities involve risks associated with softball, athletic movement, physical exertion, equipment, playing surfaces, weather or environmental conditions when applicable, and the presence and actions of other persons.

Tryout activities may include, but are not limited to, hitting, bunting, slapping, pitching, bullpen work, catching, receiving pitches, throwing, fielding, receiving throws, base running, sprinting, sliding, diving, agility drills, warmups, conditioning, strength or fitness activities, athletic evaluations, demonstrations, coach-directed drills, and the use of batting cages, pitching areas, pitching machines or ball-feeding devices, softballs, bats, batting tees, bases, pitching areas or mounds, nets, protective screens, training aids, radar or performance technology, and other athletic or facility equipment.

I understand and acknowledge that the Participant / Athlete's participation in and presence around Softball Academy tryout activities may expose the Participant / Athlete to risks including, but not limited to:

• Ball-impact risks: being struck by a pitched, thrown, batted, tipped, fouled, deflected, dropped, machine-fed, or ricocheting softball or other training object, including balls traveling at high speed or arriving unexpectedly;
• Bat and swing-zone risks: being struck by a swinging, thrown, dropped, broken, or released bat, including contact occurring during batting, warmups, drills, or movement near an active hitting area;
• Pitching, catching, and throwing risks: injuries associated with pitching, catching, receiving pitches, throwing, repeated throwing, bullpen activity, foul tips, blocked or deflected pitches, sudden or high-velocity throws, and repetitive upper-extremity activity;
• Base-running, sliding, diving, and fielding risks: collisions, falls, awkward landings, contact with bases, pitching areas, fences, other Participants / Athletes, coaches, or equipment, and injuries occurring while running, sprinting, changing direction, sliding, diving, fielding, or receiving throws;
• Pitching-machine and ball-feeding risks: unexpected pitch speed, direction, height, timing, misfeed, jam, rebound, malfunction, adjustment, startup, shutdown, moving parts, or improper or unauthorized operation;
• Ricochet and adjacent-activity risks: softballs or other objects rebounding from or passing around nets, screens, floors, walls, ceilings, fences, backstops, support structures, pitching machines, bases, or other equipment, including balls or equipment entering from an adjacent field, cage, lane, or training area;
• Net, screen, and protective-equipment limitations: batting helmets, face protection, catcher protective equipment, fielding masks when used, nets, protective screens, fences, backstops, barriers, and other protective equipment or structures may reduce certain risks but cannot eliminate the possibility of injury;
• Collision and contact risks: contact or collisions with other Participants / Athletes, coaches, evaluators, catchers, pitchers, fielders, runners, staff members, volunteers, spectators, walls, fences, dugouts, benches, nets, screens, bases, structures, equipment, or other objects;
• Playing-surface and facility risks: slips, trips, falls, loss of balance, awkward landings, or contact with artificial turf, natural grass, dirt, clay, mats, concrete, bases, thresholds, holes, depressions, wet or slippery areas, hard or uneven areas, loose material, softballs, equipment, or other changing field or facility conditions;
• Weather and environmental risks when activities occur outdoors: heat, cold, rain, wind, sun exposure, dehydration, lightning or rapidly changing weather, poor air quality, and other outdoor or environmental conditions associated with an outdoor tryout location;
• Physical-exertion and overuse risks: fatigue, dizziness, overexertion, dehydration, muscle strains, ligament sprains, dislocations, fractures, tendon or joint injuries, repetitive-motion or overuse injuries, and injuries involving the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, back, hip, knee, ankle, or other body part;

• Equipment risks: equipment breakage, unexpected movement, improper fit, improper adjustment, improper setup, misuse, unauthorized use, or malfunction involving athletic, training, or facility equipment;
• Illness and communicable-infection risks: exposure to illness or communicable infection through close contact with other persons or through shared facilities, equipment, surfaces, dugouts, benches, seating areas, or other common spaces;
• Serious-injury risks: serious bodily injury, permanent impairment or disability, paralysis, or death; and
• Property risks: loss of or damage to personal property.

Supervision, Instruction, and Evaluation. CYOJ Hit Lab coaches, evaluators, staff members, or authorized volunteers may organize, demonstrate, direct, observe, and evaluate tryout activities and may provide reasonable supervision within the scope of the tryout. I understand that such supervision, instruction, rules, protective equipment, and safety precautions can reduce some risks but cannot eliminate every risk of injury. The presence of coaches, evaluators, staff members, or volunteers does not mean that every Participant / Athlete will be continuously and individually observed at every moment.

Protective Equipment and Safety Rules. The Participant / Athlete must use protective equipment when required by applicable CYOJ Hit Lab, facility, team, league, or tryout rules; remain alert to active hitting, pitching, throwing, fielding, running, and machine-use areas; follow posted warnings and reasonable safety instructions; and promptly report damaged, improperly fitting, missing, unstable, malfunctioning, or unsafe equipment or conditions to an authorized coach, evaluator, staff member, or facility representative.

Third-Party Fields and Facilities. When a tryout is conducted at a park, school, field, facility, or other location not operated by CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation, the Participant / Athlete may also be subject to the rules, conditions, restrictions, and operational decisions of that location. Field and facility conditions may change because of weather, maintenance, prior use, other activities, or circumstances outside CYOJ Hit Lab's direct control.

No Guarantee of Team Placement. I understand that participation in a Softball Academy tryout or evaluation does not guarantee selection, roster placement, position, playing time, team assignment, scholarship, recruiting opportunity, or any other athletic outcome.

If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily choose to participate in the Softball Academy tryout. If I am the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily permit the minor Participant / Athlete to participate. I understand and acknowledge the risks disclosed in this Section and voluntarily choose, or permit the minor Participant / Athlete, to participate with knowledge of those risks.

Section 2 separately governs the scope of any Release of Liability, including any release of claims for ordinary negligence arising from the risks disclosed in this Section. Disclosure or acknowledgment of equipment, protective-equipment, field, facility, weather, environmental, supervision, or other risks in this Section does not expand Section 2, eliminate any limitation or exception stated in Section 2, or waive any claim that Oregon law does not permit to be waived.

CYOJ Hit Lab Private Party or Event — Participant / Athlete Assumption of Risk

This Section applies when the Participant / Athlete participates in or attends a birthday party, team party, private rental, celebration, gathering, or other private event at CYOJ Hit Lab that includes or may include baseball, softball, athletic, fitness, recreational, or related facility activities.

I understand that a private party or event at CYOJ Hit Lab may include both athletic or recreational activity and non-athletic social activity. The Participant / Athlete may participate in or be near batting cages, pitching areas, bullpens, training lanes, turf and other athletic surfaces, baseballs, softballs, bats, batting tees, pitching machines or ball-feeding devices, nets, protective screens, training aids, games, contests, demonstrations, other Participants / Athletes, guests, staff members, and other persons using the facility. Other cages, training areas, rentals, lessons, or authorized activities may also be occurring in the facility at the same time.

Activities may include, but are not limited to, hitting, bunting, pitching, catching, throwing, fielding, running, games, contests, demonstrations, warmups, ball retrieval, authorized pitching-machine use, and other baseball-, softball-, athletic-, fitness-, or recreational activities permitted as part of the event. Participants / Athletes and guests may also move through seating areas, walkways, entrances, exits, common areas, and other authorized portions of the facility.

I understand and acknowledge that the Participant / Athlete's participation in and presence around these activities may expose the Participant / Athlete to risks including, but not limited to:

• Ball-impact risks: being struck by a pitched, thrown, batted, tipped, fouled, deflected, dropped, machine-fed, or ricocheting baseball, softball, or other training or game object, including balls traveling at high speed or arriving unexpectedly;
• Bat and swing-zone risks: being struck by a swinging, thrown, dropped, broken, or released bat, including contact occurring during batting, warmups, demonstrations, games, or movement near an active hitting area;
• Pitching-machine and ball-feeding risks: unexpected pitch speed, direction, height, timing, misfeed, jam, rebound, malfunction, adjustment, startup, shutdown, moving parts, or improper or unauthorized operation;
• Ricochet and adjacent-activity risks: balls or other objects rebounding from or passing around nets, screens, floors, walls, ceilings, doors, support structures, pitching machines, bases, or other equipment, including balls or equipment entering from an adjacent cage or training area;
• Net, screen, and protective-equipment limitations: nets, protective screens, barriers, helmets, face protection, and other protective equipment may reduce certain risks but cannot eliminate the possibility of injury;
• Collision and contact risks: contact or collisions with other Participants / Athletes, guests, children, adults, staff members, coaches, spectators, walls, doors, nets, screens, structures, equipment, furniture, or other objects;
• Movement, play, and surface risks: slips, trips, falls, loss of balance, awkward landings, sudden movement, running, games, horseplay or unexpected movement by others, or contact with turf, mats, thresholds, seating, balls, equipment, spills, wet areas, uneven areas, or other walking or activity surfaces;
• Physical-exertion risks: fatigue, dehydration, dizziness, overexertion, muscle strains, ligament sprains, dislocations, fractures, tendon or joint injuries, and other injuries associated with running, throwing, hitting, catching, or other physical activity;
• Head, face, eye, dental, and chest-impact risks: cuts, bruises, facial injuries, eye injuries, dental injuries, head injuries, concussions, chest or abdominal injuries, and other trauma caused by balls, bats, collisions, falls, equipment, or athletic movement;
• Equipment risks: equipment breakage, unexpected movement, improper fit, improper adjustment, improper setup, misuse, unauthorized use, or malfunction involving athletic, training, recreational, or facility equipment;
• Illness and communicable-infection risks: exposure to illness or communicable infection through close contact with other persons or through shared facilities, equipment, surfaces, seating areas, or other common spaces;
• Serious-injury risks: serious bodily injury, permanent impairment or disability, paralysis, or death; and
• Property risks: loss of or damage to personal property.

Active Areas, Equipment, and Event Boundaries. The Participant / Athlete must remain within areas authorized for the event and must not enter an active cage, pitching lane, bullpen, machine-use area, restricted area, or another user's reserved space except when authorized and reasonably safe to do so. Bats, balls, pitching machines, training equipment, games, and other facility equipment may be used only as permitted and in accordance with applicable instructions and CYOJ Hit Lab rules.

Supervision of Minors and Guests. I understand that a private party or event does not, by itself, create general childcare or continuous individual-supervision responsibility for CYOJ Hit Lab. CYOJ Hit Lab personnel may provide instruction, facilitate activities, enforce facility rules, or provide reasonable supervision within the scope of any services CYOJ Hit Lab has expressly agreed to provide for the event. The event organizer and any parent, legal guardian, coach, or other adult who has actually undertaken responsibility for supervising a minor or group remain responsible for reasonable supervision within the scope of that person's role and the circumstances. A parent or legal guardian does not assume supervision responsibility for every person at the event merely by signing an individual waiver.

Protective Equipment and Facility Rules. I understand that appropriate protective equipment may reduce some risks but cannot prevent every injury. The Participant / Athlete must use protective equipment when required by applicable CYOJ Hit Lab or event rules, remain alert to active hitting, pitching, throwing, and machine-use areas, follow posted warnings and reasonable safety instructions, and stop using equipment that appears damaged, unstable, improperly configured, malfunctioning, or unsafe.

Event Organizer and Reservation. The event organizer's rental, reservation, or agreement with CYOJ Hit Lab does not replace the individual waiver required for an adult Participant / Athlete or for the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete when an individual waiver is required. The organizer's reservation also does not make CYOJ Hit Lab the legal guardian or general custodian of Participants / Athletes, children, or guests.

If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily choose to participate in or attend the private party or event. If I am the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily permit the minor Participant / Athlete to participate in or attend the private party or event. I understand and acknowledge the risks disclosed in this Section and voluntarily choose, or permit the minor Participant / Athlete, to participate with knowledge of those risks.

Section 2 separately governs the scope of any Release of Liability, including any release of claims for ordinary negligence arising from the sport, fitness, recreational, or training activities and the risks disclosed in this Section. Disclosure or acknowledgment of equipment, protective-equipment, facility, supervision, common-area, or other risks in this Section does not expand Section 2, eliminate any limitation or exception stated in Section 2, or waive any claim that Oregon law does not permit to be waived.

By signing and submitting this agreement, I consent to conduct this transaction electronically. I confirm that the electronic signature I provide is my signature, that I am signing in the role identified in this form, and that I intend my electronic signature to authenticate this agreement and evidence my acceptance of the provisions applicable to the selected activity, program, facility use, or other arrangement and to my identified role.

I confirm that I have had the opportunity to review the applicable provisions of this agreement before signing and that I have read, understood, and voluntarily accepted the terms displayed for the selected activity and my role as applicable:

• as the Adult Participant / Athlete, when I am participating on my own behalf;
• as the Parent or Legal Guardian of a Minor Participant / Athlete, when I possess legal authority to sign for that minor; or
• as the Coach or Authorized Team Representative, when I am completing the coach/team-representative provisions applicable to a non-Hit Lab team practice or other authorized outside-team activity.

If I am signing as the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I certify that I am the minor's parent or legal guardian and possess authority to sign this agreement on behalf of that minor.

If I am signing as a Coach or Authorized Team Representative, I understand that my signature applies only to the responsibilities and provisions applicable to that role and does not replace, satisfy, or waive the requirement that each adult Participant / Athlete—or the parent or legal guardian of each minor Participant / Athlete—complete any required individual Participant / Athlete waiver.

I understand that an electronic signature may have the same legal effect as a handwritten signature to the extent provided by applicable law, and I intend my electronic signature to have that effect.

I authorize CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation to retain this completed agreement and associated electronic submission records, including the signature and available submission date and time information, for later reference, recordkeeping, safety, operational, insurance, and legal purposes consistent with applicable law.

If an electronic copy of the completed agreement is provided to me by email, electronic download, or another electronic method, I consent to receive and retain that copy electronically.

I am signing and submitting this agreement freely and voluntarily.

Hit Lab Training Session — Participant / Athlete Assumption of Risk

This Section applies when the Participant / Athlete participates in a private, semi-private, group, team, instructional, performance, or other training session provided, directed, or supervised by CYOJ Hit Lab at 576 Patterson Dr NW, Suite 120, Salem, Oregon 97304.

I understand that baseball, softball, athletic, fitness, strength, conditioning, movement, and instructional training activities involve risks associated with physical exertion, athletic movement, equipment, instruction, training surfaces, and the presence and actions of other persons.

Training activities may include, but are not limited to, hitting, bunting, pitching, bullpen work, catching, receiving pitches, throwing, fielding, receiving throws, running, sprinting, sliding, agility exercises, speed and movement drills, strength and conditioning, resistance exercises, stretching, warmups, demonstrations, evaluations, coach-directed drills, technology-assisted training, and the use of batting cages, pitching lanes, bullpens, pitching machines or ball-feeding devices, baseballs, softballs, bats, batting tees, weights, resistance equipment, nets, protective screens, training aids, radar or performance technology, and other athletic, fitness, or facility equipment.

I understand and acknowledge that the Participant / Athlete's participation in and presence around Hit Lab training activities may expose the Participant / Athlete to risks including, but not limited to:

• Ball-impact risks: being struck by a pitched, thrown, batted, tipped, fouled, deflected, dropped, machine-fed, or ricocheting baseball, softball, or other training object, including balls traveling at high speed or arriving unexpectedly;
• Bat and swing-zone risks: being struck by a swinging, thrown, dropped, broken, or released bat, including contact occurring during hitting, warmups, demonstrations, drills, or movement near an active hitting area;
• Pitching, catching, and throwing risks: injuries associated with pitching, catching, receiving pitches, throwing, repeated throwing, bullpen activity, foul tips, blocked or deflected pitches, sudden or high-velocity throws, and repetitive upper-extremity activity;
• Running, sliding, fielding, and movement risks: collisions, falls, awkward landings, sudden stops, changes of direction, contact with bases, mounds, other Participants / Athletes, coaches, equipment, or facility structures, and injuries occurring while running, sprinting, sliding, fielding, receiving throws, performing agility work, or completing movement drills;
• Pitching-machine and ball-feeding risks: unexpected pitch speed, direction, height, timing, misfeed, jam, rebound, malfunction, adjustment, startup, shutdown, moving parts, or improper or unauthorized operation;
• Strength, conditioning, and resistance-training risks: loss of balance, dropped or shifting equipment, improper or unexpected resistance, fatigue, exertion, muscle or joint injury, and injuries associated with weights, bands, resistance devices, medicine balls, body-weight exercises, or other strength and conditioning equipment or drills;
• Instruction, demonstration, and close-proximity coaching risks: accidental contact, loss of balance, or other injury during demonstrations, spotting, movement correction, physical-positioning guidance, drill setup, or other appropriate training assistance provided within the scope of the session;
• Ricochet and adjacent-activity risks: balls or other objects rebounding from or passing around nets, screens, floors, walls, ceilings, doors, support structures, pitching machines, mounds, or other equipment, including balls or equipment entering from an adjacent cage, lane, bullpen, or training area;
• Net, screen, and protective-equipment limitations: helmets, face protection, catcher protective equipment, nets, protective screens, barriers, and other protective equipment or structures may reduce certain risks but cannot eliminate the possibility of injury;
• Collision and contact risks: contact or collisions with other Participants / Athletes, trainers, coaches, catchers, pitchers, hitters, fielders, staff members, spectators, walls, doors, nets, screens, structures, equipment, or other objects;
• Surface and facility risks: slips, trips, falls, loss of balance, awkward landings, or contact with turf, mats, mounds, thresholds, balls, equipment, wet areas, uneven areas, hard surfaces, or other changing training or walking surfaces;
• Physical-exertion and overuse risks: fatigue, dizziness, dehydration, overexertion, muscle soreness, muscle strains, ligament sprains, dislocations, fractures, tendon or joint injuries, repetitive-motion or overuse injuries, and injuries involving the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hand, back, hip, knee, ankle, or other body part;
• Head, face, eye, dental, and chest-impact risks: cuts, bruises, facial injuries, eye injuries, dental injuries, head injuries, concussions, chest or abdominal injuries, and other trauma caused by balls, bats, collisions, falls, equipment, or athletic movement;
• Equipment and technology risks: equipment breakage, unexpected movement, improper fit, improper adjustment, improper setup, misuse, unauthorized use, malfunction, power loss, connectivity loss, inaccurate readings, or other failures involving athletic, fitness, training, or performance technology and equipment;
• Illness and communicable-infection risks: exposure to illness or communicable infection through close contact with other persons or through shared facilities, equipment, surfaces, seating areas, or other common spaces;
• Serious-injury risks: serious bodily injury, permanent impairment or disability, paralysis, or death; and
• Property risks: loss of or damage to personal property.

Instruction, Training Intensity, and Participant Communication. CYOJ Hit Lab trainers, coaches, staff members, or authorized representatives may provide instruction, demonstrations, corrections, drill recommendations, workload or intensity recommendations, spotting or assistance, and physical-positioning guidance appropriate to the training activity. I understand that instruction, supervision, protective equipment, and reasonable safety precautions can reduce some risks but cannot eliminate every risk of injury.

The Participant / Athlete should not participate contrary to medical advice or while an injury, illness, symptom, medication effect, physical limitation, fatigue, impairment, or other condition makes participation unsafe. The Participant / Athlete must, when reasonably able, stop or reduce participation and promptly notify the trainer, coach, or authorized staff member of significant pain, dizziness, difficulty breathing, suspected concussion symptoms, unusual weakness, illness, injury, or another concerning condition experienced during the session.

Protective Equipment, Equipment Use, and Facility Rules. The Participant / Athlete must use protective equipment when required by applicable CYOJ Hit Lab or training-session rules; remain alert to active hitting, pitching, throwing, movement, strength-training, and machine-use areas; use equipment only as authorized and intended; follow posted warnings and reasonable safety instructions; and promptly report damaged, improperly fitting, unstable, improperly configured, malfunctioning, or unsafe equipment or conditions to an authorized trainer, coach, staff member, or facility representative.

Supervision During the Training Session. CYOJ Hit Lab personnel may provide reasonable supervision within the scope and duration of the scheduled training session. I understand that a trainer or coach cannot continuously observe every movement of every Participant / Athlete at every moment, prevent every unexpected action by another person, or eliminate every risk associated with athletic or fitness training. Any supervision undertaken for the training session is limited to the scope of that scheduled activity and does not make CYOJ Hit Lab, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, or their personnel the Participant / Athlete's legal guardian, general custodian, or general medical decision-maker.

If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily choose to participate in the Hit Lab training session. If I am the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I voluntarily permit the minor Participant / Athlete to participate. I understand and acknowledge the risks disclosed in this Section and voluntarily choose, or permit the minor Participant / Athlete, to participate with knowledge of those risks.

Section 2 separately governs the scope of any Release of Liability, including any release of claims for ordinary negligence arising from the sport, fitness, recreational, or training activities and the risks disclosed in this Section. Disclosure or acknowledgment of equipment, protective-equipment, instruction, supervision, training, facility, or other risks in this Section does not expand Section 2, eliminate any limitation or exception stated in Section 2, or waive any claim that Oregon law does not permit to be waived.

Adult Participant / Athlete or Parent/Legal Guardian Release

Please read this Section carefully. This Release affects important legal rights.

For purposes of this agreement, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, operating CYOJ Hit Lab, is identified as the operator of the CYOJ Hit Lab program and facility. References to CYOJ Hit Lab in this agreement refer to the CYOJ Hit Lab program, facility, and operations conducted by Create Your Own Journey Foundation.

In consideration for the Participant / Athlete being permitted to participate in the activity or program selected in this agreement:

If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I sign this agreement on my own behalf. If the Participant / Athlete is under 18, I sign as the Participant / Athlete’s parent or legal guardian and on behalf of the minor Participant / Athlete.

I voluntarily release and waive claims against CYOJ Hit Lab, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, and their directors, officers, employees, coaches, trainers, volunteers, contractors, sponsors, affiliates, and authorized representatives for damages resulting from injuries to the Participant / Athlete caused by ordinary negligence arising out of the selected sport, fitness, recreational activity, program, or other activity identified in this agreement and the risks disclosed in Section 1.

More specifically, this Release is intended to apply only to claims for damages for injuries to the Participant / Athlete resulting from ordinary negligence that arises out of the selected sport, fitness or recreational activity, including training activities when applicable, and that results from risks associated with that activity that are disclosed in Section 1.

Section 1 provides the activity-specific disclosure of risks. This Section 2 governs the release of claims. The fact that a risk is identified or acknowledged in Section 1 does not, by itself, release a claim. A claim is released only to the extent that it falls within the scope of this Section 2 and applicable Oregon law.

The inclusion of a director, officer, employee, coach, trainer, volunteer, contractor, sponsor, affiliate, or authorized representative in the list of released persons or entities does not independently determine whether that person or entity qualifies as an operator or otherwise has a legally enforceable release under Oregon law. The release of any person or entity identified above applies only to the extent permitted by applicable law and does not expand the statutory scope of a permissible release.

This release does not apply to any claim that Oregon law does not permit to be released. Without limiting that rule, this release does not apply to:

• Claims involving gross negligence, reckless conduct, willful misconduct, or intentional torts;
• Claims for negligence per se;
• Claims relating to the maintenance or inspection of safety equipment supplied by the operator and used in connection with the selected activity;
• Claims relating to negligent safety-related training of an employee or agent whose conduct causes injury;
• Claims relating to abuse or physical or sexual assault;
• Claims relating to negligent hiring, training, credentialing, supervision, or retention of an employee or agent when the injury-causing conduct constitutes gross negligence, reckless conduct, willful misconduct, or an intentional tort; or
• Claims relating to the operation or use of a vehicle, including transportation to or from the location of the selected activity, unless the Participant / Athlete uses the vehicle as part of the sport, fitness, recreational activity, or program itself.

For additional clarity, the exclusions above include the categories Oregon law expressly provides an operator may not require a person to release, including:

• Claims for greater than ordinary negligence, including gross negligence, reckless conduct, willful misconduct, or intentional torts;
• Claims for negligence per se;
• Claims relating to the maintenance or inspection of safety equipment supplied by the operator and used in connection with the sport, fitness or recreational activity;
• Claims relating to negligent safety-related training of an employee or agent of the operator whose conduct causes injury;
• Claims relating to abuse, as defined in ORS 419B.005, or physical or sexual assault of an adult;
• Claims relating to negligent hiring, training, credentialing, supervision, or retention of an employee or agent of the operator when the conduct causing injury constitutes gross negligence, reckless conduct, willful misconduct, or an intentional tort; and
• Claims relating to the operation or use of a vehicle, including automobiles, buses, vans, snowmobiles, snow cats, all-terrain vehicles, utility terrain vehicles, side-by-sides, or other vehicles, including transportation to or from the location where the sport, fitness or recreational activity takes place, unless the Participant / Athlete uses the vehicle as part of the sport, fitness or recreational activity itself.

The list above does not limit the broader rule that this Release does not apply to any claim that applicable Oregon law does not permit to be released.

Nothing in this Release transfers to the Participant / Athlete or parent/legal guardian any legal duty that applicable law places on CYOJ Hit Lab, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, or another person or entity. Nothing in this Release requires the Participant / Athlete or parent/legal guardian to release any claim that Oregon law prohibits an operator from requiring to be released.

If any language in this Release is broader than the release permitted by applicable Oregon law, the Release is intended to be construed and applied only within the legally permitted limits and not to release a claim that Oregon law does not permit to be released.

If I am signing as the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I understand that I am signing this Release in my capacity as the minor Participant / Athlete’s parent or legal guardian and on behalf of the minor Participant / Athlete. This Release is intended to operate only to the extent Oregon law permits a parent or guardian to release claims for injuries to a participant under 18.

If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I understand that I am signing this Release only with respect to my own participation and only as to claims that Oregon law permits me to release.

I understand that by signing this agreement, I am giving up substantial legal rights, including the right to bring certain claims for ordinary negligence on behalf of myself or the minor Participant / Athlete, depending on the capacity in which I am signing.

I understand that this Release does not mean that every injury, accident, incident, or claim occurring during or in connection with an activity is automatically released. Whether a particular claim falls within this Release depends on, among other things, whether the injury results from ordinary negligence arising out of the selected sport, fitness or recreational activity, whether the injury results from a risk disclosed in Section 1, the nature and circumstances of the claim, and applicable Oregon law.

I understand that this Release is being signed voluntarily and is intended to be a clear and unambiguous release of only those ordinary-negligence claims described above that Oregon law permits to be released.

I have read this Release of Liability, understand its legal effect, and agree to it freely and voluntarily.

Coach or Authorized Team Representative — Release of Liability

Please read this Section carefully. This Release affects important legal rights.

For purposes of this Release, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, operating CYOJ Hit Lab, is the operator of CYOJ Hit Lab and the facility where the scheduled non-Hit Lab team practice occurs.

In consideration for being permitted to enter, use, and supervise a non-Hit Lab team practice at CYOJ Hit Lab, I voluntarily enter into this Release solely on my own behalf.

I certify that I am 18 years of age or older and am signing this Release in my own capacity as the Coach or Authorized Team Representative identified in this agreement.

I understand that I am not signing this Release on behalf of any player, Participant / Athlete, parent, legal guardian, assistant coach, team member, spectator, or other person unless I possess separate legal authority to do so.

I understand that the separate Coach or Authorized Team Representative — Non-Hit Lab Team Practice Assumption of Risk identifies risks associated with my own presence, coaching, supervision, participation when applicable, movement through the facility, direct assistance with athletic activity, and authorized use of CYOJ Hit Lab facilities and equipment.

The Assumption of Risk provision discloses those risks. This Section contains the separate Release of Liability applicable to certain claims arising from those disclosed risks.

I voluntarily release and waive claims against CYOJ Hit Lab, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, and their directors, officers, employees, coaches, trainers, volunteers, contractors, sponsors, affiliates, and authorized representatives for damages resulting from injuries to me caused by ordinary negligence arising out of my presence at the facility, participation in or supervision of the non-Hit Lab team practice, use of the facility or equipment, or the risks associated with the practice and facility use.

This Release is intended to apply only to the extent permitted by Oregon law to claims for damages for injuries to me resulting from ordinary negligence that arises out of the applicable sport, fitness or recreational activity, including training activities, and from risks associated with the activity that are disclosed in this agreement.

The reference above to my “presence at the facility” does not create a blanket release for every injury merely because it happens somewhere on CYOJ Hit Lab property. The injury, alleged ordinary negligence, and circumstances must fall within the lawful scope of this Release and have the relationship to the sport, fitness, recreational, training, coaching, supervisory, facility-use, or associated activity contemplated by this agreement that applicable law requires.

When my coaching or representative role includes throwing batting practice, pitching, catching, hitting fungoes, demonstrating drills, operating authorized machines or training systems, moving equipment, retrieving balls, participating in drills, spotting or assisting Participants / Athletes, or otherwise directly participating in or assisting with the athletic or training activity, those activities are included within the activity and risk disclosures applicable to me.

Nothing in this Release means that every risk identified in the Assumption of Risk provision is necessarily an “inherent risk” as a matter of law. Whether a particular risk is legally inherent to an activity remains governed by applicable Oregon law.

This Release applies only to my own legal rights and does not replace, satisfy, or modify the individual waiver required from each adult Participant / Athlete or from the parent or legal guardian of each minor Participant / Athlete.

My signature on this Coach or Authorized Team Representative Release does not waive, release, limit, or surrender any legal right belonging to an individual Participant / Athlete, parent, legal guardian, assistant coach, spectator, guest, or other person for whom I do not possess legal authority.

Released Parties & Scope

The identification of directors, officers, employees, coaches, trainers, volunteers, contractors, sponsors, affiliates, and authorized representatives as released parties does not independently determine that every such person or entity is an “operator” under Oregon law.

The Release applies to each identified person or entity only to the extent that the claim may lawfully be released under the circumstances and applicable law.

Nothing in this provision enlarges the statutory or legal authority to require a release or transforms otherwise nonwaivable conduct into a released claim.

Claims Not Released

This Release does not apply to any claim that Oregon law does not permit to be released. Without limiting that rule, this Release does not apply to:

• Claims involving gross negligence, reckless conduct, willful misconduct, or intentional torts;
• Claims for negligence per se;
• Claims relating to the maintenance or inspection of safety equipment supplied by the operator and used in connection with the activity;
• Claims relating to negligent safety-related training of an employee or agent whose conduct causes injury;
• Claims relating to abuse or physical or sexual assault;
• Claims relating to negligent hiring, training, credentialing, supervision, or retention of an employee or agent when the injury-causing conduct constitutes gross negligence, reckless conduct, willful misconduct, or an intentional tort; or
• Claims relating to the operation or use of a vehicle, including transportation to or from the location of the activity, unless I use the vehicle as part of the sport, fitness, recreational activity, or program itself.

For additional clarity, the exclusions above include claims for greater than ordinary negligence, including gross negligence, reckless conduct, willful misconduct, or intentional torts; claims for negligence per se; claims relating to maintenance or inspection of safety equipment supplied by the operator and used in connection with the sport, fitness or recreational activity; and claims relating to negligent safety-related training of an employee or agent of the operator whose conduct causes injury.

The exclusion concerning abuse or assault includes abuse as defined in ORS 419B.005 and physical or sexual assault of an adult.

The exclusion concerning negligent hiring, training, credentialing, supervision, or retention applies when the conduct of the operator's employee or agent that causes the injury constitutes gross negligence, reckless conduct, willful misconduct, or an intentional tort.

The vehicle exclusion includes claims relating to the operation or use of automobiles, buses, vans, snowmobiles, snow cats, all-terrain vehicles, utility terrain vehicles, side-by-sides, or other motorized conveyances, including transportation to or from the location of the activity, unless the vehicle is itself being used as part of the applicable sport, fitness or recreational activity.

Ordinary Negligence Only

This Release is intended to release only those ordinary-negligence claims that may lawfully be released under Oregon law. It is not intended to release conduct greater than ordinary negligence or any other claim that applicable law prohibits CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation from requiring me to release.

The fact that an injury occurs during, near, or in connection with the scheduled practice does not automatically establish that the injury is released. Whether a particular claim falls within this Release depends on the nature of the claim, the activity, the disclosed risks, the circumstances, and applicable law.

If any wording in this Release is broader than Oregon law permits, I understand that the Release is intended to be construed and applied only within the lawful limits permitted by Oregon law rather than to create a waiver of a claim that cannot lawfully be released.

Substantial Legal Rights

I understand that by signing this Release, I am giving up substantial legal rights, including the right to bring certain claims for ordinary negligence relating to my own injuries, to the fullest extent permitted by Oregon law.

I understand that this Release concerns my own potential claims and is separate from the supervision, indemnification, emergency-response, facility-rule, team-media, and other responsibilities I accept elsewhere in the Coach or Authorized Team Representative agreement.

I understand that accepting this Release does not expand any indemnification obligation contained elsewhere in this agreement.

I have had the opportunity to review this Release before signing, understand that I may decline to sign and decline to use the facility for the scheduled practice, understand its legal effect, and agree to it freely and voluntarily.

Adult Participant / Athlete or Parent/Legal Guardian — Indemnification & Responsibility for Conduct

This Section addresses responsibility for conduct, property damage, unauthorized use, breaches of responsibilities expressly accepted in this agreement, and certain third-party claims. It is separate from the Release of Liability in Section 2.

I understand that I am responsible for my own conduct and, when I am signing as the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, for the responsibilities I expressly accept in this agreement concerning the minor Participant / Athlete.

I understand that this Section does not make me automatically responsible for every act, injury, loss, claim, expense, or incident involving the Participant / Athlete or another person. Responsibility under this Section applies only to the extent stated below and permitted by applicable law.

I agree to be responsible for reasonable losses, damages, repair or replacement costs, claims, or expenses to the extent caused by:

• My intentional, reckless, unauthorized, or wrongful conduct, or that of the Participant / Athlete for whom I am signing;
• Intentional or unauthorized damage to CYOJ Hit Lab facilities, equipment, technology, furnishings, security devices, access-control systems, or other property;
• Unauthorized use, alteration, misuse, removal, disabling, or reconfiguration of CYOJ Hit Lab equipment, technology, or property;
• Sharing, transferring, copying, publishing, or permitting unauthorized use of an Access Credential assigned to me or the Participant / Athlete;
• Knowingly admitting an unauthorized Active Participant or otherwise knowingly facilitating unauthorized facility use;
• Materially false, misleading, or incomplete information that I knowingly or negligently provide in connection with participation, facility access, membership status, eligibility, or emergency response;
• My violation—or the Participant / Athlete’s violation—of applicable facility rules, safety instructions, access restrictions, or reasonable directions provided by authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel; or
• My unreasonable failure to perform a supervision, safety, security, or facility-use responsibility that I expressly accepted in this agreement when that failure causes or materially contributes to a loss or third-party claim.

For purposes of the provision concerning materially false, misleading, or incomplete information, I understand that this Section is not intended to impose strict liability for an innocent clerical error, immaterial omission, information that was not reasonably known to me, or an error that did not cause or materially contribute to the claimed loss. Responsibility under that provision requires a material inaccuracy or omission that I knowingly provide or fail to exercise reasonable care in providing, together with a sufficient causal relationship between that information and the resulting loss, expense, or third-party claim.

Property, Equipment & Facility Damage

I understand that ordinary wear resulting from proper and authorized use of CYOJ Hit Lab facilities or equipment is different from intentional damage, reckless damage, unauthorized alteration, misuse, removal, disabling, or other wrongful damage.

Where responsibility exists under this Section, repair or replacement costs are intended to reflect reasonable costs associated with restoring, repairing, or replacing damaged property, equipment, technology, access devices, security systems, furnishings, or other affected property and are not intended to operate as a penalty.

If equipment or property appears damaged, defective, unstable, improperly configured, or unsafe, the Participant / Athlete or responsible adult should stop using it and report the condition rather than attempt an unauthorized repair, alteration, bypass, or reconfiguration.

Access Credentials & Unauthorized Facility Use

I understand that an Access Credential may include a membership card, QR code, barcode, PIN, temporary access code, mobile credential, key card, key fob, tap-enabled credential, or another physical or electronic access method authorized by CYOJ Hit Lab.

I am responsible for taking reasonable steps to protect an Access Credential assigned to me or the Participant / Athlete from unauthorized sharing, duplication, publication, transfer, or use.

I understand that allowing another person to enter through an open door, shared credential, published code, copied credential, or other method may constitute unauthorized access when that person has not independently been authorized to enter.

This Section does not make me responsible merely because another person independently obtains or misuses an Access Credential without my authorization, knowledge, participation, or unreasonable failure to protect the credential.

Third-Party Claims & Indemnification

For purposes of this Section, a third-party claim means a claim, demand, action, or proceeding brought by a person or entity other than the person asserting rights directly under this agreement against CYOJ Hit Lab, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, or another person or entity identified below.

To the extent permitted by law, I agree to indemnify and hold harmless CYOJ Hit Lab, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, and their directors, officers, employees, coaches, trainers, volunteers, contractors, sponsors, affiliates, and authorized representatives from third-party claims, losses, damages, reasonable repair or replacement costs, and reasonable expenses to the extent caused by my own acts or omissions, the acts or omissions of the Participant / Athlete for whom I am legally responsible, or my breach of responsibilities I expressly accepted in this agreement.

The phrase “to the extent caused by” is intended to limit this indemnification to the portion of a third-party claim, loss, damage, cost, or expense that is legally attributable to conduct or responsibilities for which I am responsible under this Section.

This indemnification does not make me automatically responsible for every act or omission of another member, Participant / Athlete, parent, legal guardian, coach, spectator, guest, or other person merely because that person was present with me or associated with the same activity.

This indemnification also does not make me responsible merely because I signed for a minor Participant / Athlete. Any responsibility relating to the minor Participant / Athlete remains limited to responsibilities I expressly accept in this agreement and any responsibility otherwise imposed by applicable law.

Supervision & Scope of Responsibility

I understand that my responsibility for supervision is limited to reasonable responsibilities arising from my role, authority, knowledge, and the circumstances. I am not required to guarantee another person’s conduct or prevent every possible injury, incident, rule violation, or unauthorized act.

When I am the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I understand that the supervision responsibilities I accept depend on the applicable activity, program, membership, facility rules, and whether CYOJ Hit Lab or an authorized coach or staff member has expressly undertaken supervision for a specifically scheduled activity.

Nothing in this Section makes a parent/legal guardian responsible for supervising unrelated Participants / Athletes, other families, spectators, guests, coaches, or other persons merely because the parent/legal guardian is present at CYOJ Hit Lab.

Nothing in this Section makes an adult Participant / Athlete responsible for supervising another Participant / Athlete unless that adult has separately and expressly undertaken such a responsibility.

Important Limits on Indemnification

This indemnification does not require me to indemnify CYOJ Hit Lab, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, or any other person or organization for that person’s or organization’s own negligence, gross negligence, reckless conduct, willful misconduct, intentional wrongdoing, or other conduct for which indemnification is not permitted by law.

I am not agreeing to reimburse, defend, indemnify, or hold harmless CYOJ Hit Lab, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, or another released or indemnified person for the portion of a loss or third-party claim caused by that person’s or organization’s own negligence or other excluded conduct.

If conduct by more than one person or entity contributes to a loss or third-party claim, this Section is intended to allocate responsibility only to the extent legally attributable to conduct for which I am responsible under this agreement and applicable law.

This Section does not create a duty for me to indemnify another person or organization for conduct that applicable law prohibits from being shifted to me by contract.

This provision does not authorize me to waive or release the legal rights of another adult, another family, or another person for whom I do not possess legal authority.

If I am the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, my signature in that capacity does not make me the guarantor or insurer of every action of the minor Participant / Athlete and does not create responsibility beyond the responsibilities expressly stated in this agreement and those otherwise imposed by applicable law.

Relationship to Section 2 — Release of Liability

This indemnification does not expand the Release of Liability in Section 2 or eliminate any limitation or exception contained in that Release.

The Release of Liability in Section 2 concerns certain claims of the adult Participant / Athlete or minor Participant / Athlete. This Section 3 primarily addresses responsibility for conduct, property damage, expressly accepted responsibilities, and third-party claims. The existence of one provision does not enlarge the scope of the other.

Nothing in this Section converts a claim that is excluded from, limited by, or not lawfully released under Section 2 into an indemnification obligation merely by describing the claim as a loss, cost, expense, or third-party claim.

I understand that this provision is intended to allocate responsibility for losses and third-party claims arising from conduct and responsibilities for which I am legally responsible—not to make me an insurer or guarantor of every person or activity occurring at CYOJ Hit Lab.

I have read this Indemnification & Responsibility for Conduct provision, understand the responsibilities described in it, and agree to those responsibilities only to the extent stated in this Section and permitted by applicable law.

Adult Participant / Athlete or Parent/Legal Guardian — Medical Authorization & Emergency Response

This Section addresses medical information, immediate safety action, first aid, emergency response, emergency communications, and related responsibilities associated with participation. It does not replace professional medical care, medical advice, required medical clearance, or any applicable return-to-play requirement.

To the best of my knowledge, the Participant / Athlete is physically and medically able to participate in the selected activity or program, subject to any injury, illness, allergy, medical condition, medication need, physical limitation, restriction, or accommodation disclosed in this agreement.

I agree to provide accurate and reasonably complete information concerning any known injury, illness, allergy, medication need, physical limitation, medical restriction, or other condition that could reasonably affect the Participant / Athlete’s safe participation or emergency response.

I understand that the Participant / Athlete should not participate contrary to medical advice or while experiencing an injury, illness, symptom, medication effect, impairment, physical limitation, fatigue, or other condition that makes participation unsafe.

The Participant / Athlete is responsible for stopping participation and promptly reporting significant pain, dizziness, difficulty breathing, suspected concussion symptoms, illness, injury, or another concerning condition when reasonably able to do so.

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab coaches, trainers, staff members, and volunteers do not independently determine that a Participant / Athlete is medically fit to participate merely because the Participant / Athlete is allowed to enter the facility, attend an activity, begin a drill, return to a drill, use equipment, or continue participating.

A Participant / Athlete who is subject to a medical restriction, return-to-play restriction, concussion protocol, or other legally or medically required participation limitation must comply with that restriction. Nothing in this agreement authorizes participation contrary to applicable medical advice, a required medical release, or applicable law.

Emergency Response When CYOJ Hit Lab Personnel Are Present

If authorized CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation personnel are present, become aware of an injury or medical emergency, or otherwise reasonably determine that immediate safety action is appropriate, I authorize them to:

• Stop, limit, or restrict the Participant / Athlete’s participation when reasonably necessary for safety;
• Contact 911, emergency medical services, law enforcement, or another appropriate emergency responder;
• Provide reasonable first-aid assistance within the scope of the individual responder’s training, available equipment, and circumstances;
• Provide emergency responders with relevant medical, emergency-contact, allergy, medication, injury, or other information supplied through this agreement or otherwise reasonably available to CYOJ Hit Lab;
• Contact the Participant / Athlete’s parent, legal guardian, emergency contact, or another appropriate responsible person when reasonably possible; and
• Take other reasonable immediate steps necessary to protect the Participant / Athlete while professional medical assistance is being obtained.

I understand that an immediate emergency may require contacting emergency services or taking other reasonable safety action before a parent, legal guardian, or emergency contact can be reached.

I authorize CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation to provide emergency responders, medical personnel, and an appropriate parent, legal guardian, emergency contact, or responsible person with medical or emergency information reasonably relevant to the injury, illness, or emergency response.

This authorization is limited to information reasonably related to participation, safety, medical response, or the emergency and is not intended as a general authorization for disclosure of unrelated personal information.

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab personnel may rely reasonably on medical, allergy, medication, emergency-contact, accommodation, and restriction information supplied through this agreement or otherwise provided to CYOJ Hit Lab and are not expected to independently investigate or diagnose undisclosed medical conditions.

First Aid, Emergency Assistance & Professional Medical Care

I understand that reasonable first-aid assistance provided by a coach, trainer, staff member, volunteer, or other person is not a substitute for evaluation, diagnosis, or treatment by an appropriately qualified health care professional.

The decision to contact emergency medical services may be based on the circumstances reasonably known at the time and does not constitute a medical diagnosis.

I understand that professional emergency responders and health care providers make their own medical, treatment, transport, consent, and patient-care decisions under applicable law and professional standards.

Nothing in this agreement requires CYOJ Hit Lab personnel to perform a medical procedure, provide treatment beyond the person's training or authorization, or undertake care that should reasonably be provided by professional emergency or medical personnel.

Medication, Emergency Medication & Medical Devices

Disclosure that a Participant / Athlete uses or may need medication, an inhaler, epinephrine, glucose-management supplies, another emergency medication, or another medical device does not by itself create an agreement that CYOJ Hit Lab will store, manage, administer, monitor, or be responsible for that medication or device.

Unless CYOJ Hit Lab expressly agrees otherwise through a separate authorized arrangement, this Section does not create a general duty for coaches, staff members, trainers, or volunteers to administer prescription medication, over-the-counter medication, or routine medical treatment.

Nothing in the preceding paragraph prevents a person from taking reasonable emergency action permitted by applicable law or from assisting professional emergency responders when circumstances reasonably require emergency assistance.

The Participant / Athlete and parent/legal guardian remain responsible for complying with applicable program requirements concerning medications, emergency medications, medical devices, health plans, accommodations, and medical restrictions.

Concussions, Head Injuries & Return to Participation

If the Participant / Athlete experiences an observed or suspected blow to the head or body and exhibits signs, symptoms, or behaviors consistent with a concussion, participation may be immediately stopped or restricted.

The Participant / Athlete should promptly report, when reasonably able, symptoms such as headache, dizziness, confusion, memory difficulty, balance problems, visual disturbance, nausea, unusual fatigue, loss of consciousness, unusual behavior, or other symptoms that may indicate a concussion or other head injury.

Nothing in this Medical Authorization permits a coach, staff member, Participant / Athlete, parent/legal guardian, or other person to disregard an applicable concussion-removal, medical-release, or return-to-play requirement imposed by Oregon law, a league, tournament, governing body, facility, or qualified health care professional.

Where applicable law requires medical clearance or a medical release before a Participant / Athlete may return to athletic participation, the Participant / Athlete may not return based solely on a parent/legal guardian request, the Participant / Athlete’s own preference, or permission from a coach who is not legally authorized to provide that medical clearance.

Unstaffed, Extended-Hours & After-Hours Use

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab may permit certain authorized persons to use the facility during staffed, partially staffed, unstaffed, extended-hours, or after-hours periods.

During an unstaffed or after-hours period, a CYOJ Hit Lab employee, coach, volunteer, or other representative may not be physically present to observe or respond to an injury, illness, medical emergency, equipment failure, or other incident.

The presence of security cameras, access-control systems, entry logs, communications systems, or other technology does not mean that CYOJ Hit Lab is continuously monitoring the Participant / Athlete or providing real-time medical or emergency supervision.

During authorized unstaffed or after-hours use, the adult Participant / Athlete—or the responsible supervising adult when one is required—is responsible for contacting 911 or other emergency services when reasonably necessary and for taking reasonable immediate steps appropriate to the circumstances while awaiting professional assistance.

CYOJ Hit Lab does not represent that an employee or other responder will be immediately available during unstaffed or after-hours access.

I understand that access to the facility during an authorized unstaffed or after-hours period does not itself mean that CYOJ Hit Lab has determined that the Participant / Athlete is medically able to participate safely or that emergency assistance will be immediately available.

Minor Participants / Athletes

If the Participant / Athlete is under 18, I provide this authorization as the Participant / Athlete’s parent or legal guardian.

Except during a specifically scheduled activity in which an authorized coach or staff member has expressly undertaken reasonable supervision for the scheduled activity, I remain responsible for ensuring that the minor Participant / Athlete has the adult supervision required by CYOJ Hit Lab rules, the applicable program or membership, and the circumstances.

When a minor Participant / Athlete is participating in a scheduled coach- or staff-supervised lesson, practice, camp, clinic, training session, Academy activity, or other authorized program, the supervising personnel may take reasonable emergency actions described in this section within the scope of that activity.

Nothing in this parent/legal-guardian authorization is intended to eliminate, restrict, or override any independent right that a minor Participant / Athlete may have under Oregon law to consent to health care, diagnosis, treatment, or other medical services without parental consent.

Nothing in this Section is intended to interfere with the legal duties, professional judgment, or consent requirements applicable to an emergency responder, physician, hospital, health care provider, or other medical professional.

Adult Participants / Athletes & Capable Persons

If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I understand that this Section authorizes reasonable emergency actions but does not surrender my own legal right to participate in medical decision-making when I am conscious, capable, and legally able to do so.

Nothing in this Section authorizes CYOJ Hit Lab personnel to override a legally effective consent, refusal, advance directive, or other medical decision when applicable law requires that decision to be honored.

No General Medical or Guardianship Authority

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab personnel, coaches, trainers, and volunteers are not medical professionals unless specifically identified as such, are not responsible for diagnosing an injury or medical condition, and cannot guarantee any particular medical outcome.

Nothing in this authorization appoints CYOJ Hit Lab, Create Your Own Journey Foundation, or their personnel as the Participant / Athlete’s legal guardian, general custodian, healthcare representative, or general medical decision-maker.

This authorization is limited to reasonable immediate actions associated with participation, safety, first aid, and emergency response.

This authorization does not create an ongoing duty to monitor the Participant / Athlete’s medical condition, continuously observe the Participant / Athlete for symptoms, provide medical supervision, or independently determine whether an undisclosed medical condition exists.

Transportation & Medical Expenses

Unless CYOJ Hit Lab expressly agrees otherwise in a separate written arrangement, CYOJ Hit Lab does not undertake responsibility for routine transportation of a Participant / Athlete to or from the facility, a medical provider, hospital, or other location.

Emergency transportation may be provided by emergency medical services or another appropriate responder when circumstances reasonably require it.

Authorization to contact emergency responders or request emergency transportation does not guarantee that emergency transportation will occur, determine which responder or medical facility will be used, or control decisions made by emergency medical personnel.

I understand that I remain responsible for medical decisions, insurance coverage, medical treatment, emergency transportation charges, and related expenses resulting from an injury, illness, or emergency, except to the extent otherwise required by law or expressly agreed in writing.

Continuing Accuracy of Medical & Emergency Information

I agree to notify CYOJ Hit Lab of material changes to medical restrictions, emergency-contact information, or other information previously provided when those changes could reasonably affect safe participation or emergency response.

This responsibility includes material changes to information concerning significant injuries, allergies, medication needs, medical restrictions, accommodations, emergency contacts, or return-to-play limitations that were previously provided to CYOJ Hit Lab and that could reasonably affect participation or emergency response.

This responsibility applies to information reasonably known to me and does not require me to diagnose an unknown medical condition or predict an unexpected medical event.

Relationship to Other Sections of This Agreement

This Medical Authorization & Emergency Response section does not expand the Release of Liability in Section 2, expand the Indemnification provision in Section 3, eliminate any limitation or exception contained in those Sections, or independently release any claim.

Providing medical information, authorizing emergency contact, requesting emergency assistance, accepting first aid, or authorizing reasonable emergency action does not by itself constitute a release of liability, assumption of another person's negligence, or agreement to indemnify another person or organization.

Nothing in this Section is intended to waive a legal right, medical-consent protection, emergency-response protection, or claim that applicable law does not permit to be waived.

I have read this Medical Authorization & Emergency Response provision, understand its purpose and limitations, and authorize the reasonable emergency actions described above.

Coach or Authorized Team Representative — Emergency Response & Medical Information

This Section addresses emergency-contact information, immediate safety action, emergency response, medical information reasonably provided to the team, concussion response, and the limited emergency responsibilities I accept as Coach or Authorized Team Representative. It does not appoint me as a Participant / Athlete’s legal guardian or general medical decision-maker and does not replace professional medical care.

I confirm that I have current emergency-contact information for every Participant / Athlete listed for the scheduled team practice and will keep that information reasonably accessible throughout the activity.

I agree to take reasonable steps to be aware of relevant medical, allergy, medication, physical-limitation, or emergency information that a Participant / Athlete’s parent or legal guardian has provided to me or the team when that information may reasonably affect emergency response or safe participation.

I understand that my responsibility is limited to information that has been provided to me or the team, or that I otherwise reasonably know. This agreement does not require me to independently investigate, diagnose, discover, or verify an undisclosed medical condition.

I agree to take reasonable steps to keep emergency-contact and safety information reasonably accessible during the scheduled activity and to update or correct team records when I become aware that materially important information previously provided to me is inaccurate or outdated.

Injury, Illness & Emergency Response

In the event of an injury, illness, suspected concussion, medical emergency, or other significant safety incident involving a Participant / Athlete, I agree to take reasonable immediate action appropriate to the circumstances.

Such action may include:

• Stopping or restricting the Participant / Athlete’s participation when reasonably necessary for safety;
• Contacting 911, emergency medical services, or other appropriate emergency responders when reasonably warranted;
• Promptly notifying the Participant / Athlete’s parent, legal guardian, or emergency contact when reasonably possible;
• Providing emergency responders or authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel with relevant emergency-contact, medical, allergy, medication, injury, or other safety information that has been provided to me and is reasonably necessary for the emergency response; and
• Following reasonable instructions provided by emergency responders or authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel during the emergency.

I understand that an immediate medical emergency may require contacting emergency services or taking other reasonable safety action before a parent, legal guardian, or emergency contact can be reached.

I understand that I should not delay contacting 911 or another appropriate emergency responder solely because a parent, legal guardian, emergency contact, CYOJ Hit Lab employee, or other person has not yet been reached when the circumstances reasonably require immediate emergency assistance.

If professional emergency responders assume responsibility for the emergency, I agree to reasonably cooperate with them and understand that medical, transport, treatment, destination, and patient-care decisions may thereafter be made by the Participant / Athlete, parent/legal guardian, emergency responder, health care provider, or other person possessing legal authority under the circumstances.

CYOJ Hit Lab Emergency Assistance

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation personnel may contact 911 or other emergency responders and may provide reasonable first-aid assistance within the scope of the individual responder’s training, available resources, and the circumstances while professional medical assistance is being obtained.

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab personnel, coaches, volunteers, and team representatives are not medical professionals unless specifically identified as such, are not responsible for diagnosing an injury or medical condition, and cannot guarantee any particular medical outcome.

The fact that CYOJ Hit Lab personnel are present does not transfer the outside team's ordinary coaching, supervision, emergency-information, or immediate-response responsibilities to CYOJ Hit Lab.

Likewise, the outside team's presence does not prevent CYOJ Hit Lab personnel from stopping an activity, contacting emergency services, providing reasonable first aid within the responder's training, or taking another reasonable immediate safety action when circumstances warrant.

Concussion, Head Injury & Return to Participation

If a Participant / Athlete experiences an observed or suspected blow to the head or body and exhibits signs, symptoms, or behaviors consistent with a concussion, or has been diagnosed with a concussion, I agree to immediately stop or restrict that Participant / Athlete’s participation as required by applicable law and applicable team or governing-body requirements.

Possible concussion signs or symptoms may include headache, dizziness, confusion, memory difficulty, balance problems, visual disturbance, nausea, unusual fatigue, loss of consciousness, unusual behavior, or other signs or symptoms reasonably associated with a suspected concussion.

I understand that a parent, legal guardian, Participant / Athlete, teammate, or coach who is not legally authorized to provide medical clearance cannot override an applicable concussion-removal or return-to-play requirement merely by requesting that the Participant / Athlete continue or return to activity.

When Oregon concussion law applies to the scheduled team or Participant / Athlete, I agree to comply with the applicable removal-from-play and return-to-participation requirements.

For a qualifying nonschool athletic team subject to ORS 417.875, this includes not allowing a member to participate in athletic training or an athletic event on the same day that the member exhibits signs, symptoms, or behaviors consistent with a concussion following an observed or suspected blow to the head or body, or has been diagnosed with a concussion, except as otherwise permitted by law.

Where ORS 417.875 applies, return to participation after such removal generally may occur no sooner than the following day and only after the Participant / Athlete no longer exhibits concussion signs, symptoms, or behaviors and receives the medical release required by applicable law, unless an applicable statutory exception permits earlier return following an authorized determination that the Participant / Athlete did not suffer a concussion.

If another concussion law, school rule, league requirement, tournament rule, governing-body policy, or medical restriction imposes a stricter or additional requirement, this agreement does not authorize me to disregard that requirement.

This agreement does not itself establish that I have completed any concussion training separately required by Oregon law, a league governing body, school, team, tournament, or other organization. Any required coach training, certification, policy acknowledgment, or education requirement remains separate and must be satisfied independently.

Medical Information & Emergency Disclosure

I understand that medical, allergy, medication, physical-limitation, and emergency information provided to me should be used reasonably for team safety, participation, and emergency-response purposes.

I may provide emergency responders, health care personnel, authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel, or another appropriate responsible person with relevant emergency-contact, medical, allergy, medication, injury, or safety information reasonably necessary to respond to an injury, illness, or emergency.

This provision does not authorize unnecessary public disclosure of a Participant / Athlete’s private medical or emergency information.

I understand that information reasonably necessary for an immediate emergency may need to be shared before the Participant / Athlete’s parent or legal guardian can be contacted.

Medication & Medical Devices

Information that a Participant / Athlete uses medication, an inhaler, epinephrine, glucose-management supplies, another emergency medication, or another medical device does not by itself make me responsible for storing, managing, administering, monitoring, or replacing that medication or device.

Unless I possess separate legal authority, appropriate training when required, and a separate authorization or arrangement applicable to the Participant / Athlete, this agreement does not create a general duty for me to administer prescription medication, over-the-counter medication, routine medical treatment, or another medical procedure.

Nothing in this paragraph prevents me from contacting emergency responders, providing information to them, following their reasonable instructions, or taking other reasonable emergency action permitted by law and appropriate to the circumstances.

Any medication-management, emergency-action, allergy, asthma, diabetes, seizure, or other medical plan separately provided by a parent/legal guardian, Participant / Athlete, team, school, medical provider, or other authorized person remains governed by that separate arrangement and applicable law.

No General Guardianship or Medical Authority

This acknowledgment does not appoint me as the legal guardian or general medical decision-maker for any Participant / Athlete and does not give me authority to consent to non-emergency medical treatment on behalf of a Participant / Athlete unless I possess separate legal authority to do so.

Any separate emergency-care or medical authority granted to me by a Participant / Athlete’s parent or legal guardian through another valid team or participation document remains separate from this agreement.

Nothing in this Section expands any separate authority I may possess or creates authority that applicable law does not otherwise permit.

If the Participant / Athlete is an adult, I understand that the adult Participant / Athlete retains the right to make their own medical decisions when legally capable of doing so.

If the Participant / Athlete is a minor, nothing in this agreement is intended to eliminate or override any independent medical-consent right the minor may possess under applicable Oregon law.

Staffed, Unstaffed & After-Hours Emergencies

I understand that a non-Hit Lab team practice may occur during staffed, partially staffed, extended-hours, unstaffed, or after-hours periods when specifically authorized by CYOJ Hit Lab.

During an authorized unstaffed or after-hours period, CYOJ Hit Lab personnel may not be physically present to observe or immediately respond to an injury, illness, equipment problem, medical emergency, or other incident.

The presence of security cameras, access-control systems, entry logs, communications systems, or other technology does not mean that CYOJ Hit Lab is continuously monitoring the scheduled practice or providing real-time medical or emergency supervision.

During such use, I agree to contact 911 or other appropriate emergency services when reasonably necessary and to take reasonable immediate action within the scope of my role while awaiting professional assistance.

Transportation & Medical Expenses

Unless separately authorized or arranged, this agreement does not make me or CYOJ Hit Lab responsible for routine transportation of a Participant / Athlete to or from the facility, hospital, medical provider, or another location.

Emergency transportation may be provided by emergency medical services or another appropriate responder when circumstances reasonably require it.

Authorization to contact emergency responders does not guarantee that transportation will occur, determine which emergency provider will respond, or determine which hospital or medical facility may receive the Participant / Athlete.

I understand that each adult Participant / Athlete—or the parent or legal guardian of each minor Participant / Athlete—remains responsible for medical decisions, insurance coverage, medical treatment, transportation, and related expenses, except to the extent otherwise required by law.

Individual Participant / Athlete Waiver & Medical Authorization

This coach/team representative acknowledgment does not replace the individual CYOJ Hit Lab waiver and medical authorization required from each adult Participant / Athlete or from the parent or legal guardian of each minor Participant / Athlete.

My possession of emergency-contact or medical information, my team roster, my signature, or my willingness to respond to an emergency does not substitute for the individual Participant / Athlete waiver or establish that I possess authority to sign that waiver for another person.

I agree to cooperate with CYOJ Hit Lab if individual waiver, emergency-contact, or other participation information must reasonably be verified in connection with the scheduled team practice.

Relationship to Other Coach Provisions

This Section addresses emergency response and medical information. It does not expand the Coach or Authorized Team Representative — Release of Liability, expand the Indemnification & Responsibility for Conduct provision, or eliminate any limitation or exception contained in those provisions.

Taking reasonable emergency action, reporting an injury, contacting 911, providing emergency information, or assisting a Participant / Athlete during an emergency does not by itself create general guardianship authority, a guarantee of medical outcome, or responsibility beyond the duties otherwise imposed by this agreement and applicable law.

I have read this Emergency Response & Medical Information provision, understand the responsibilities and limitations described in it, and agree to perform the reasonable emergency-response responsibilities applicable to my role.

Adult Participant / Athlete or Parent/Legal Guardian — Rules, Supervision & Conduct

I understand that use of CYOJ Hit Lab facilities, equipment, technology, programs, services, memberships, rentals, lessons, practices, events, and other activities is subject to applicable facility rules, posted warnings, safety instructions, access restrictions, equipment requirements, and reasonable directions provided by authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel.

I agree that the Participant / Athlete will comply with those requirements and will use CYOJ Hit Lab property, equipment, technology, training areas, and access privileges only as authorized and intended.

These rules apply in addition to any activity-specific requirements, membership terms, Academy rules, team rules, booking terms, rental terms, lesson or training requirements, access requirements, and other applicable written terms associated with the Participant / Athlete's authorized use.

Authorized Participation & Active Participants

For purposes of these rules, an Active Participant is a person who uses CYOJ Hit Lab facilities, training areas, equipment, machines, or technology for that person’s own athletic practice, instruction, training, exercise, competition, evaluation, or recreational participation.

Each Active Participant must have appropriate authorization to participate. Depending on the activity, authorization may consist of an active membership, Academy or team participation arrangement, lesson or training enrollment, rental, event registration, guest authorization, promotional authorization, household or family plan, or another arrangement approved by CYOJ Hit Lab.

Authorization to participate and completion of required waivers are separate requirements. A membership, payment, reservation, booking, roster placement, Academy enrollment, team arrangement, guest authorization, Access Credential, or other participation authorization does not by itself establish that all required waivers have been completed.

Likewise, completion of a waiver does not by itself create a membership, reservation, payment status, roster position, recurring access right, or authorization to use a particular facility area, program, machine, technology system, or activity.

Each adult Participant / Athlete—or the parent or legal guardian of each minor Participant / Athlete—must complete the applicable required CYOJ Hit Lab waiver before participation when a waiver is required.

For a non-Hit Lab team practice or other outside-team activity, a team roster, coach acknowledgment, Coach or Authorized Team Representative agreement, booking, or facility-access authorization does not replace the required individual Participant / Athlete waiver.

A person accompanying a Participant / Athlete does not become an Active Participant merely by providing reasonable incidental assistance, such as feeding or operating an authorized pitching machine, tossing or pitching balls to the Participant / Athlete, retrieving balls, helping with equipment, or otherwise assisting the Participant / Athlete.

The distinction between an Active Participant and a person providing incidental assistance is an access and participation classification only. It does not exempt an assisting person from any waiver, safety, equipment-use, supervision, or other requirement that CYOJ Hit Lab makes applicable to that person's activities or exposure.

A parent, legal guardian, coach, helper, or other person who enters an active cage or training area, throws batting practice, pitches or tosses balls, catches, operates a pitching machine or ball-feeding device, demonstrates athletic activity, or otherwise participates in an activity involving meaningful athletic or equipment exposure may be required to complete an applicable CYOJ Hit Lab waiver or other authorization before doing so.

A person who begins using the facility for that person’s own hitting, pitching, throwing, catching, fielding, training, exercise, or other athletic participation becomes an Active Participant and must have appropriate authorization.

The distinction between an Active Participant and a person providing incidental assistance addresses participation and access authorization. It does not eliminate any safety rule, conduct requirement, waiver requirement, supervision requirement, or other obligation that separately applies to that person.

Spectators, parents, legal guardians, and nonparticipating guests do not require a membership merely to observe or reasonably assist an authorized Participant / Athlete, but they remain subject to all applicable facility, safety, conduct, supervision, waiver when applicable, and access rules.

Guests may not actively participate merely because they entered with or accompanied a member. Active guest participation is permitted only when specifically included in the applicable plan, booking, program, event, team arrangement, promotion, or other authorization provided by CYOJ Hit Lab.

Minors, Supervision & Childcare

CYOJ Hit Lab does not provide general childcare, babysitting, or custodial supervision merely because a minor is a member, Participant / Athlete, guest, or otherwise present at the facility.

If I am the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I remain responsible for ensuring that the minor has the level of adult supervision required by the applicable activity, membership, program, booking, facility rule, age requirement, and circumstances.

Except when a minor is participating in a specifically scheduled lesson, Academy practice, team activity, camp, clinic, training session, or other program in which an authorized coach or staff member has expressly undertaken reasonable supervision for the scheduled activity, a minor may not be left at CYOJ Hit Lab without the supervision required by CYOJ Hit Lab rules.

The presence of CYOJ Hit Lab employees, coaches, security cameras, access-control systems, other members, other parents, or other persons does not by itself create individual supervision or childcare responsibility for a minor.

A coach or staff member supervising a scheduled activity is responsible only for reasonable supervision within the scope and duration of that scheduled activity and does not become the minor Participant / Athlete’s legal guardian, general custodian, or transportation provider.

Unless expressly authorized under a specific written program or access arrangement, a minor may not use CYOJ Hit Lab during unstaffed or after-hours access without the required authorized supervising adult.

A parent, legal guardian, or other supervising adult may not assume that another parent, coach, member, employee, spectator, or facility user has accepted responsibility for supervising a minor unless that responsibility has actually been undertaken as part of an authorized activity or other clear arrangement.

Any drop-off, pickup, arrival, departure, or waiting arrangement for a minor must comply with the supervision requirements applicable to that minor's activity and does not extend CYOJ Hit Lab supervision beyond the authorized scheduled activity.

Access Credentials, Check-In & Identity Verification

CYOJ Hit Lab may use physical or electronic methods to verify membership status, eligibility, reservations, bookings, identity, or facility access.

For purposes of these rules, an Access Credential includes any membership card, QR code, barcode, mobile credential, digital pass, PIN, temporary code, key card, key fob, tap-enabled credential, electronic identifier, or other approved current or future method used for facility entry, check-in, reservation verification, or access control.

Access Credentials are personal and nontransferable unless CYOJ Hit Lab expressly designates the credential as transferable or group-based.

A person may not share, loan, copy, duplicate, publish, distribute, sell, transfer, or otherwise permit unauthorized use of an Access Credential.

CYOJ Hit Lab may require a member or other authorized person to check in, present or scan an Access Credential, confirm a reservation, or otherwise reasonably verify eligibility to use the facility or a particular area, service, or piece of equipment.

If an Access Credential is lost, stolen, compromised, shared, copied, or believed to have been used without authorization, the user must promptly notify CYOJ Hit Lab.

CYOJ Hit Lab may deactivate, replace, reset, suspend, or otherwise restrict a lost, stolen, compromised, shared, duplicated, expired, or unauthorized Access Credential when reasonably necessary to protect facility security or verify authorized access.

A person may not intentionally bypass check-in or identity-verification requirements, enter through a secured access point without authorization, use another person's credential, or allow another person to use an assigned credential contrary to these rules.

Temporary, Team, Event & One-Time Access

Unless a membership plan or separate written authorization expressly provides recurring access, an Access Credential issued for a practice, team event, rental, lesson, training session, party, booking, tournament preparation, or other scheduled activity is valid only for the authorized person or group, date, time period, location, and activity.

A one-time or temporary Access Credential does not create ongoing membership rights or continuing facility-access privileges.

Temporary access may expire automatically at the end of the authorized period and may be restricted to particular doors, areas, cages, equipment, or activities.

Temporary or team access may not be used to admit unrelated persons or unauthorized Active Participants.

Temporary access also does not authorize use before the approved access period, after that period ends, or for a different activity, team, booking, person, or purpose unless CYOJ Hit Lab separately authorizes that use.

Staffed, Unstaffed & After-Hours Access

CYOJ Hit Lab may, but is not obligated to, offer staffed, partially staffed, extended-hours, unstaffed, or after-hours access to eligible members, teams, coaches, Participants / Athletes, or other authorized users.

Eligibility for such access may depend on membership type, age, program, booking, payment status, waiver status, supervision requirements, safety requirements, facility operations, or other reasonable criteria established by CYOJ Hit Lab.

Unstaffed or after-hours access does not mean that CYOJ Hit Lab personnel are continuously observing or supervising the persons using the facility.

During authorized unstaffed or after-hours use, users must:

• Enter only during the authorized access period;
• Use only authorized areas and equipment;
• Follow all facility and safety rules;
• Keep exterior doors and other secured access points properly closed and secured;
• Never prop open a secured door or intentionally defeat an access-control system;
• Never admit an unauthorized person or Active Participant;
• Promptly stop using damaged, malfunctioning, or unsafe equipment;
• Contact emergency services when reasonably necessary;
• Report significant injuries, damage, equipment failures, security concerns, or other serious incidents to CYOJ Hit Lab; and
• Leave the facility and training areas in a clean, secure, and reasonably reset condition.

During unstaffed or after-hours access, users must also take reasonable care not to leave exterior doors, gates, emergency exits, equipment rooms, access-controlled areas, or other secured locations open or unsecured in a manner that permits unauthorized access.

Users must not interfere with, cover, disable, disconnect, redirect, tamper with, or intentionally obstruct authorized cameras, access-control systems, alarms, locks, security equipment, networking equipment, or other facility security systems.

CYOJ Hit Lab may suspend, restrict, or revoke after-hours or other access privileges when reasonably necessary because of safety concerns, credential sharing, unauthorized entry, rule violations, nonpayment, property damage, misuse, repeated failure to secure or reset the facility, or other material violations of an applicable agreement.

Facility & Equipment Use

The Participant / Athlete and associated users must remain in authorized areas and use batting cages, pitching areas, bullpens, machines, balls, bats, nets, screens, weights, training devices, technology, seating, and other property only as intended and permitted.

Users must comply with applicable occupancy restrictions, protective-equipment requirements, machine-operating instructions, posted warnings, and directions from authorized personnel.

No person may intentionally alter, dismantle, disable, disconnect, repair, relocate, bypass, reconfigure, or misuse facility equipment, machines, technology, cameras, security devices, networking equipment, access-control equipment, electrical equipment, or other CYOJ Hit Lab property without authorization.

Damaged, malfunctioning, improperly configured, or unsafe equipment must not be used and should be reported promptly.

Horseplay, intentionally dangerous conduct, throwing or hitting balls into unauthorized areas, swinging bats outside designated areas, and other conduct that could reasonably endanger another person or property are prohibited.

Users must remain alert to active hitting, pitching, throwing, fielding, machine-use, strength-training, and other athletic areas and may not enter another person's active swing path, throwing lane, pitching area, machine-use area, or other active training space unless authorized and reasonably safe to do so.

Before entering an active hitting, pitching, throwing, or machine-use area to retrieve balls, move a screen, adjust equipment, clear a machine, or perform another task, users must take reasonable steps to ensure that the applicable hitting, pitching, throwing, or machine operation has stopped and that it is reasonably safe to enter.

Pitching machines, automated ball-feeding systems, radar systems, training technology, strength equipment, and other equipment subject to operating restrictions may be used only by persons authorized to operate or use them under the applicable activity, program, booking, instructions, age requirements, or facility rules.

A user may not reach into, open, adjust, clear, repair, bypass, or manipulate moving or energized machine components except as expressly authorized and consistent with applicable operating instructions.

Nets, screens, barriers, gates, cage dividers, padding, backstops, and other protective structures may not be intentionally moved, opened, bypassed, altered, or repositioned in a way that creates an unsafe condition or defeats their intended protective function, except when authorized as part of normal facility setup or use.

Emergency Exits, Fire Safety & Clear Access

Emergency exits, exit routes, fire-safety equipment, electrical panels, doors, hallways, walkways, and other required access areas must remain reasonably clear and may not be intentionally blocked, obstructed, disabled, or used for storage contrary to facility requirements.

Users must not tamper with fire alarms, extinguishers, emergency lighting, exit signs, sprinkler equipment, or other emergency or life-safety equipment.

Nothing in these rules prohibits a person from using an emergency exit or taking reasonable emergency action when reasonably necessary for safety.

Cleaning, Resetting & Care of the Facility

Every member, Participant / Athlete, coach, team, renter, and other authorized user is responsible for helping leave the space used in a clean, orderly, and reasonably reset condition.

When applicable:

• Balls must be collected and returned to the appropriate location;
• Machines, screens, nets, training aids, bases, weights, seating, and other movable equipment must be returned to the designated or appropriate position;
• Personal belongings must be removed;
• Food, bottles, cans, wrappers, athletic tape, packaging, and other trash must be placed in appropriate receptacles;
• Spills or significant messes must be promptly addressed or reported;
• Doors, gates, equipment, and access points must be left in the condition required by CYOJ Hit Lab; and
• The user must not leave conditions that create an unnecessary safety hazard for the next person using the space.

If a spill, breakage, equipment problem, exposed hazard, damaged net or screen, or other condition cannot be safely corrected by the user, the condition should be reported rather than handled in an unauthorized or unsafe manner.

Repeated failure to clean, reset, secure, or appropriately care for the facility may result in restrictions on access or participation.

Noise, Music, Language & Neighboring Businesses

CYOJ Hit Lab operates within a shared business community. Participants / Athletes, members, coaches, teams, families, spectators, and guests must maintain reasonable noise levels and appropriate behavior based on the time of day, activity, neighboring business operations, and facility rules.

Music, amplified sound, yelling, language, hitting or throwing activity, gatherings, vehicle noise, and other conduct must be maintained at a reasonable level and must not unnecessarily interfere with neighboring businesses, customers, property users, or shared common areas.

Particular care must be taken during hours when neighboring businesses are operating and during early-morning, evening, or other extended-access periods.

Threatening, abusive, discriminatory, harassing, excessively disruptive, or persistently inappropriate language or behavior is prohibited.

Nothing in these conduct rules prohibits a good-faith safety complaint, report of misconduct, request for assistance, report to law enforcement or another appropriate authority, or other lawful communication concerning a legitimate safety or legal concern.

Parking Areas, Entrances & Common Areas

Parking lots, sidewalks, entrances, loading areas, drive aisles, and other common areas used in connection with CYOJ Hit Lab must be treated respectfully and kept reasonably clean.

Trash, cans, bottles, food containers, equipment packaging, and other waste must be placed in appropriate receptacles.

Users may not block neighboring businesses, reserved spaces, entrances, exits, drive aisles, loading areas, fire access, emergency access, or other areas where parking or obstruction is prohibited.

Bats, balls, pitching, hitting, throwing, athletic drills, and similar activities are not permitted in parking or common areas unless specifically authorized.

Users must comply with posted parking requirements and reasonable requirements established by the property owner, property manager, or CYOJ Hit Lab.

Participants / Athletes, children, guests, and other persons should remain appropriately supervised in parking, driveway, entrance, loading, and other vehicle-traffic areas based on their age and circumstances.

Security Monitoring & Video Surveillance

CYOJ Hit Lab uses, or may use, video surveillance, access-control records, entry logs, and other security systems in or around facility entrances, training areas, common areas, parking areas, and other appropriate locations.

These systems may be used for legitimate purposes including safety, security, access control, incident review, property protection, rule enforcement, insurance documentation, investigation of damage or unauthorized access, and legal or operational records.

Persons entering areas subject to posted or otherwise disclosed surveillance understand that video recording may occur.

CYOJ Hit Lab does not intend to place or use security surveillance in restrooms, changing areas, or other locations in which recording would violate applicable privacy law.

Security cameras and access-control systems are not a substitute for appropriate supervision and do not guarantee that a person, activity, facility area, vehicle, or personal property is being continuously watched or protected from injury, theft, loss, damage, or other incidents.

Nothing in this provision authorizes audio recording or another form of monitoring in circumstances where separate notice, consent, or other legal requirements apply.

Security, access-control, safety, incident, and operational recordings are separate from the promotional Photography, Video & Media Authorization addressed in Section 6. A promotional Media Opt-Out does not by itself prohibit legitimate security, access-control, incident, safety, insurance, legal, or operational recording.

Personal Property

Participants / Athletes, members, families, coaches, teams, guests, and other users remain responsible for reasonably safeguarding their own phones, wallets, bags, bats, gloves, helmets, clothing, vehicles, equipment, and other personal property.

CYOJ Hit Lab does not guarantee the security of personal property left in the facility, vehicles, parking areas, common areas, or unattended spaces, except to the extent responsibility is otherwise imposed by law.

Personal property must not be placed or stored in a manner that blocks exits, walkways, active training areas, doors, equipment access, or other locations where the property creates an unnecessary safety or operational hazard.

Unauthorized Business or Commercial Activity

No person may use CYOJ Hit Lab facilities, equipment, membership privileges, or access rights to independently operate a business, provide paid coaching or instruction, conduct commercial training, resell access, organize paid events, solicit customers, or conduct another commercial activity without prior authorization from CYOJ Hit Lab.

This rule does not prohibit activities specifically arranged, approved, contracted, or authorized by CYOJ Hit Lab.

A membership, team booking, rental, guest privilege, or other access authorization does not by itself authorize a person to advertise, sell, solicit, coach for compensation, conduct a business, collect participation fees, or use CYOJ Hit Lab facilities for an independent commercial purpose.

Alcohol, Cannabis, Drugs & Impairment

CYOJ Hit Lab maintains a zero-tolerance safety policy regarding alcohol, illegal drugs, unauthorized controlled substances, marijuana/cannabis, misuse of prescription or over-the-counter medication, and other impairing substances in connection with CYOJ Hit Lab activities.

This policy applies to Participants / Athletes and to parents, legal guardians, family members, members, coaches, guests, spectators, and other persons accompanying or associated with a Participant / Athlete while on CYOJ Hit Lab property, including parking and common areas, or while attending or participating in a CYOJ Hit Lab activity.

No person covered by this policy may consume or use alcohol, illegal drugs, marijuana/cannabis, or other prohibited substances on CYOJ Hit Lab property or during a CYOJ Hit Lab activity, or attend, participate in, supervise, accompany, or remain at an activity while impaired in a manner that could reasonably affect judgment, coordination, behavior, supervision, driving ability, or safety.

Lawfully prescribed or over-the-counter medication used as directed is not, by itself, prohibited.

Lawful medical treatment occurring away from CYOJ Hit Lab property and activities is not prohibited. Possession of an Oregon Medical Marijuana Program card or other lawful authorization for medical marijuana does not create an exception to CYOJ Hit Lab’s prohibition on marijuana/cannabis use on CYOJ Hit Lab property or during applicable activities and does not permit impairment that creates a reasonable safety concern.

If authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel reasonably believe that a person is impaired or is violating this policy, CYOJ Hit Lab may immediately stop or restrict participation, direct the person to leave or remain outside activity areas, require another responsible and unimpaired adult to provide transportation when appropriate, or take other reasonable immediate safety measures.

A person who is impaired or reasonably believed to be impaired may not transport a Participant / Athlete from a CYOJ Hit Lab activity or operate a vehicle in connection with the activity when doing so presents a reasonable safety concern.

CYOJ Hit Lab may contact law enforcement, emergency services, facility personnel, property management, or another appropriate authority when circumstances present an immediate safety risk.

Nothing in this policy requires CYOJ Hit Lab personnel to diagnose intoxication, impairment, substance use, or a medical condition. Immediate safety decisions may be based on reasonably observed conduct and circumstances.

Smoking, Vaping & Similar Products

Smoking, vaping, aerosolizing, or use of tobacco, nicotine, marijuana/cannabis, or similar smoking or vapor products is not permitted inside CYOJ Hit Lab or in another area where such use is prohibited by CYOJ Hit Lab rules, property rules, or applicable law.

This prohibition includes any legally required smoke-free or vapor-free area surrounding entrances, exits, windows that open, ventilation intakes, or other locations protected by applicable law.

CYOJ Hit Lab or the property owner may establish a broader smoke-free, vape-free, tobacco-free, nicotine-free, or cannabis-free property rule when permitted by law, and persons using the facility must comply with that rule.

Incident Reporting & Good-Faith Safety Reports

I agree to promptly report significant injuries, suspected concussions, medical emergencies, unsafe conditions, damaged or malfunctioning equipment, property damage, unauthorized entry, suspected impairment creating a safety concern, threatening or violent behavior, or other significant incidents to authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel.

Nothing in this agreement prohibits or delays a good-faith report of suspected abuse, assault, harassment, criminal activity, immediate danger, child-safety concerns, or other serious matters to law enforcement, emergency services, child-protection authorities, medical personnel, or another appropriate authority.

A person should contact 911 or another appropriate emergency responder directly when circumstances reasonably require immediate emergency assistance rather than delaying emergency action solely to make an internal report first.

A requirement to report an incident to CYOJ Hit Lab is not intended to replace or interfere with any reporting obligation, protected report, mandatory report, or right to contact an appropriate governmental, medical, child-protection, or law-enforcement authority.

Facility Access, Closures & Operational Rules

CYOJ Hit Lab may temporarily modify operating hours, access availability, reservations, permitted areas, capacity, equipment availability, or facility operations because of weather, utility interruption, emergencies, maintenance, repairs, staffing, events, safety concerns, equipment failure, property-management requirements, legal requirements, or other reasonable operational circumstances.

Facility access, membership, a reservation, or a scheduled activity does not guarantee that every cage, machine, piece of technology, training area, or other resource will be available at all times.

CYOJ Hit Lab may adopt or update reasonable safety, operational, access, security, cleanliness, scheduling, and facility-use rules as circumstances and facility operations change.

Reasonable future operational or safety rules may govern future facility use after they are appropriately communicated or made applicable, but such rules do not by themselves retroactively change a signed Release of Liability, create a new indemnification obligation, or modify a previously accepted financial obligation.

Any change to a member’s financial obligation, fixed pricing commitment, automatic-renewal terms, or other material commercial terms remains governed by the applicable written membership, enrollment, checkout, payment, or renewal agreement and applicable law.

Enforcement & Safety Authority

CYOJ Hit Lab and authorized leadership of Create Your Own Journey Foundation retain authority over facility access, equipment, safety, security, and facility operations.

CYOJ Hit Lab may stop an activity, restrict equipment use, close an area, deny unauthorized participation, remove a Participant / Athlete or guest from an activity or area, suspend or restrict access, deactivate an Access Credential, or otherwise take reasonable immediate action because of unsafe conduct, impairment, credential sharing, unauthorized entry or participation, property damage, repeated cleanliness or reset violations, excessive disruption, harassment, threats, failure to provide required supervision, nonpayment when access is conditioned on account standing, or failure to follow authorized instructions.

CYOJ Hit Lab may take temporary immediate safety or access action while a significant incident, equipment issue, credential problem, unsafe condition, conduct concern, or unauthorized-use concern is being reviewed when such action is reasonably necessary to protect persons, property, security, or facility operations.

When an enforcement or safety action involves a minor Participant / Athlete, CYOJ Hit Lab may take reasonable steps appropriate to the minor's age, supervision arrangement, safety, and circumstances, including contacting a parent, legal guardian, emergency contact, or other authorized responsible adult when reasonably necessary.

Nothing in this Section requires or authorizes CYOJ Hit Lab to intentionally leave a minor unattended in circumstances requiring supervision or to knowingly release a minor into the care or transportation of a person who is unauthorized or whose impairment presents a reasonable safety concern.

Any refund, credit, cancellation, membership consequence, or other financial result associated with a suspension, termination, closure, or access restriction will be governed by the applicable written membership, enrollment, booking, reservation, checkout, payment, or other agreement and applicable law.

I agree to cooperate with reasonable safety, security, access, and facility-use decisions made by authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel.

Reasonable Accommodations & Nondiscrimination

CYOJ Hit Lab intends to apply its facility, safety, access, supervision, equipment, and conduct requirements consistently with applicable public-accommodation, disability, and nondiscrimination laws.

CYOJ Hit Lab may make reasonable modifications or accommodations to policies, practices, access procedures, or facility-use requirements when required by applicable law or when otherwise approved by CYOJ Hit Lab.

Nothing in these rules requires CYOJ Hit Lab to waive a legitimate safety requirement based on an actual safety risk, permit conduct that creates a significant safety or operational hazard, or authorize use of equipment or areas contrary to applicable safety requirements.

A request for a reasonable accommodation should be communicated to CYOJ Hit Lab so that the particular request and circumstances can be evaluated.

Relationship to Other Sections of This Agreement

This Section 5 establishes facility-use, supervision, access, safety, and conduct requirements. It does not independently expand the Release of Liability in Section 2, expand the Indemnification provision in Section 3, or eliminate any limitation or exception contained in those Sections.

Violation of a facility or conduct rule does not automatically determine legal liability for an injury, incident, loss, or claim. Any legal responsibility remains subject to the applicable facts, this agreement, and applicable law.

Nothing in this Section authorizes CYOJ Hit Lab to retroactively alter an accepted fixed-price commitment, automatic-renewal authorization, cancellation right, or other material commercial term merely by changing a facility rule.

Nothing in these rules prevents CYOJ Hit Lab from making reasonable accommodations, exceptions, or activity-specific arrangements when authorized and consistent with safety, facility operations, applicable agreements, and applicable law.

I have read these Rules, Supervision & Conduct requirements, understand that they apply to authorized use of CYOJ Hit Lab, and agree to comply with the requirements applicable to the Participant / Athlete and to me.

Coach or Authorized Team Representative — Team Supervision, Rules & Conduct

This Section addresses the reasonable team-supervision, facility-use, safety, access, conduct, and reporting responsibilities I accept as Coach or Authorized Team Representative for the scheduled non-Hit Lab team practice.

I understand that I am responsible for providing reasonable supervision and direction for the non-Hit Lab team during the scheduled practice and for cooperating with CYOJ Hit Lab personnel concerning facility safety, access, equipment use, and conduct.

I agree to follow all CYOJ Hit Lab facility rules, posted warnings, equipment instructions, occupancy limits, restricted-area requirements, and reasonable directions provided by authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel.

I agree to take reasonable steps to ensure that the team’s players, assistant coaches, parents, legal guardians, spectators, and guests who are present for the scheduled practice also follow applicable CYOJ Hit Lab rules and authorized staff instructions.

I understand that my responsibility is to exercise reasonable supervision within the scope of my role and circumstances. This agreement does not make me the legal guardian of any Participant / Athlete and does not give me unlimited control over another adult, parent, spectator, or guest.

My responsibility is limited to reasonable action within my role, authority, knowledge, and the circumstances. I am not required to guarantee another person's conduct, prevent every possible injury or rule violation, or exercise control that I do not reasonably possess.

The outside team's responsibility for coaching, practice organization, player direction, and ordinary team supervision does not transfer to CYOJ Hit Lab merely because the practice occurs at the facility. Likewise, nothing in this Section transfers to me any legal duty that applicable law places on CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation concerning facility operations, maintenance, or safety responsibilities that remain their own.

Participant / Athlete Waivers

Each adult Participant / Athlete, or the parent or legal guardian of each minor Participant / Athlete, must complete the required individual CYOJ Hit Lab waiver before participation.

I agree to take reasonable steps to ensure that only properly authorized Participants / Athletes take part in the scheduled practice and to cooperate with CYOJ Hit Lab personnel if waiver status needs to be confirmed.

I understand that my team roster, coach acknowledgment, or signature does not replace an individual Participant / Athlete waiver and does not authorize me to waive another person’s legal rights.

Payment, team registration, a roster entry, facility booking, coach signature, or possession of an Access Credential does not by itself establish that an individual Participant / Athlete waiver has been completed.

If an assistant coach, trainer, parent, legal guardian, or other adult personally participates in hitting, pitching, catching, throwing, fielding, demonstrating drills, operating equipment, throwing batting practice, hitting fungoes, or other athletic or training activity, that person may also be required to complete an applicable individual CYOJ Hit Lab waiver or other authorization before participating.

I am not responsible for making a legal determination concerning another person's parental authority or legal capacity to sign. My responsibility is to take reasonable steps to ensure that required waivers are completed and to cooperate with CYOJ Hit Lab when waiver status needs verification.

Team Roster & Authorized Attendance

I agree to provide team, practice, and roster information that is accurate and reasonably complete to the best of my knowledge.

I agree to take reasonable steps to ensure that persons participating in the scheduled practice are part of the authorized team, booking, or activity and that unrelated or unauthorized persons do not use the team’s booking or access privileges for their own participation.

If the expected roster materially changes before or during the scheduled practice, I agree to provide updated information when reasonably requested or necessary to verify participation authorization or waiver status.

This responsibility does not make me strictly responsible for an innocent roster error, an unknown last-minute change, or information that was not reasonably known to me.

Safe Facility & Equipment Use

I agree to take reasonable steps to ensure that Participants / Athletes and others associated with the team:

• Remain in authorized areas;
• Use batting cages, bullpens, pitching machines, balls, bats, nets, screens, training aids, and other facility equipment only as intended and permitted;
• Follow applicable safety instructions and equipment restrictions;
• Use appropriate protective equipment when required;
• Do not enter active cages, pitching lanes, bullpens, or other restricted training areas without authorization;
• Refrain from horseplay, intentionally dangerous conduct, unauthorized equipment use, and misuse of pitching machines or other training equipment; and
• Promptly stop using damaged, malfunctioning, improperly configured, or unsafe equipment and report the issue to authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel.

I agree to take reasonable action to stop or correct unsafe conduct that occurs within my supervision and to promptly seek assistance from CYOJ Hit Lab personnel when additional intervention is reasonably necessary.

I agree to take reasonable steps to keep Participants / Athletes and persons associated with the team out of another person's active swing path, throwing lane, pitching area, machine-use area, or other active training space unless entry is authorized and reasonably safe.

Before I enter, or direct a Participant / Athlete to enter, an active hitting, pitching, throwing, or machine-use area to retrieve balls, move a screen, adjust equipment, clear an area, or perform another task, I will take reasonable steps to ensure that the applicable hitting, pitching, throwing, or machine operation has stopped and that it is reasonably safe to enter.

Pitching machines, automated ball-feeding systems, radar or performance technology, strength equipment, and other equipment subject to operating restrictions may be operated only by persons authorized under CYOJ Hit Lab rules or instructions.

No person associated with the team may intentionally alter, dismantle, disable, disconnect, repair, bypass, reconfigure, or misuse CYOJ Hit Lab equipment, technology, cameras, access-control systems, security equipment, electrical equipment, or other property without authorization.

If equipment appears damaged, unstable, improperly adjusted, improperly configured, missing, malfunctioning, or unsafe, I agree to stop or restrict use when reasonably within the scope of my supervision and report the condition to authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel.

My responsibility to supervise equipment use and report observed concerns does not transfer to me any legal duty that applicable law places on CYOJ Hit Lab or another operator concerning maintenance or inspection of safety equipment and does not waive any claim that applicable law does not permit to be waived.

Access, Doors & After-Hours Use

I understand that the scheduled practice may occur during staffed, partially staffed, extended-hours, unstaffed, or after-hours periods when specifically authorized by CYOJ Hit Lab.

If the team receives an Access Credential, temporary code, digital pass, key, key fob, mobile credential, or other access method, I agree to use it only for the authorized team, booking, date, time, location, and activity and not to share, publish, duplicate, transfer, or use it to admit unauthorized persons.

I agree to take reasonable steps to ensure that exterior doors and other secured access points are kept properly closed and secured and that no person associated with the team intentionally props open a secured door or defeats an access-control system.

During authorized unstaffed or after-hours use, I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab personnel may not be physically present to continuously observe or supervise the scheduled practice.

Security cameras, access-control systems, entry logs, or other technology do not constitute continuous personal supervision or guarantee immediate detection of or response to an injury, emergency, unauthorized entry, equipment problem, or rule violation.

During such use, I agree to contact 911 or another appropriate emergency responder when reasonably necessary and to notify CYOJ Hit Lab of significant safety, security, access, equipment, or incident concerns.

Practice Organization & Active Areas

I agree to organize and conduct the scheduled practice in a manner reasonably appropriate for the team, age group, number of Participants / Athletes, available space, equipment, and circumstances.

I agree to maintain reasonable awareness of active hitting, pitching, catching, throwing, fielding, machine-use, conditioning, and training areas and to take reasonable steps to prevent overlapping activities from creating an unnecessary hazard.

Participants / Athletes should not begin hitting, pitching, throwing, machine operation, or another active drill until the applicable area is reasonably clear and the activity is authorized to begin.

I understand that multiple cages, bullpens, pitching areas, or other training spaces may be active simultaneously and that I must take reasonable steps within my role to account for adjacent activity when directing the team.

Protective Equipment

I agree to take reasonable steps to ensure that Participants / Athletes use protective equipment required by CYOJ Hit Lab, the applicable activity, team rules, governing-body rules, or the circumstances.

I understand that helmets, face protection, catcher’s equipment, protective screens, nets, padding, and other protective equipment or barriers may reduce certain risks but cannot eliminate every possibility of injury.

I will not knowingly direct a Participant / Athlete to disregard a required protective-equipment rule.

Cleaning, Resetting & Care of the Facility

I agree to take reasonable steps to ensure that the team leaves the areas it uses in a clean, orderly, secure, and reasonably reset condition.

When applicable, this includes taking reasonable steps to ensure that:

• Balls are collected and returned to the appropriate location;
• Screens, nets, machines, training aids, bases, weights, seating, and other movable equipment are returned to the designated or appropriate position;
• Personal belongings are removed;
• Trash, bottles, cans, food containers, athletic tape, and other waste are placed in appropriate receptacles;
• Spills or significant messes are addressed or reported;
• Doors, gates, equipment, and access points are left in the condition required by CYOJ Hit Lab; and
• The team does not knowingly leave an unnecessary safety hazard for the next facility user.

If a condition cannot be safely corrected by the team, I agree to report it rather than direct an unauthorized or unsafe repair or alteration.

Alcohol, Cannabis, Drugs & Impairment

CYOJ Hit Lab maintains a zero-tolerance safety policy regarding alcohol, illegal drugs, unauthorized controlled substances, marijuana/cannabis, misuse of prescription or over-the-counter medication, and other impairing substances in connection with activities at CYOJ Hit Lab.

This policy applies to the Coach or Authorized Team Representative, assistant coaches, Participants / Athletes, parents, legal guardians, family members, spectators, guests, and other persons associated with the team while on CYOJ Hit Lab property, including parking and common areas, or while attending or participating in the scheduled team practice.

No person covered by this policy may consume or use alcohol, illegal drugs, marijuana/cannabis, or other prohibited substances on CYOJ Hit Lab property or attend, participate in, supervise, accompany, or remain at the scheduled practice while impaired in a manner that could reasonably affect judgment, coordination, behavior, supervision, driving ability, or safety.

Lawfully prescribed or over-the-counter medication used as directed is not, by itself, prohibited. Lawful medical treatment occurring away from CYOJ Hit Lab property and activities is not prohibited. However, lawful possession or use of medication or medical marijuana does not create an exception to CYOJ Hit Lab facility rules and does not permit impairment that creates a reasonable safety concern.

If I reasonably believe that a Participant / Athlete, assistant coach, parent, spectator, guest, or other person associated with the team is impaired or is creating an immediate safety concern, I agree to promptly involve authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel and to cooperate with reasonable safety directions.

CYOJ Hit Lab may stop or restrict participation, direct an impaired or unsafe person to leave or remain outside activity areas, require another responsible and unimpaired adult to provide transportation when appropriate, or take other reasonable immediate safety measures.

A person who is impaired or reasonably believed to be impaired may not transport a Participant / Athlete from CYOJ Hit Lab or operate a vehicle in connection with the practice when doing so presents a reasonable safety risk.

CYOJ Hit Lab may contact law enforcement, emergency services, facility personnel, or another appropriate authority when circumstances present an immediate safety concern.

Nothing in this policy requires me or CYOJ Hit Lab personnel to make a medical diagnosis of intoxication, impairment, or substance use. Immediate safety action may be based on reasonably observed conduct and circumstances.

Parents, Spectators & Guests

I agree to take reasonable steps to maintain an orderly practice environment and to address disruptive, threatening, abusive, unsafe, or unauthorized behavior by persons associated with the team when the behavior occurs within the scope of the scheduled practice.

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab may independently enforce its facility rules and may restrict or remove any Participant / Athlete, coach, parent, spectator, guest, or other person whose conduct creates a safety concern, materially disrupts facility operations, violates facility rules, or fails to comply with reasonable authorized staff instructions.

I am not required to physically confront or restrain another person when doing so would create an unreasonable safety risk. When necessary, I should involve CYOJ Hit Lab personnel, law enforcement, emergency services, or another appropriate authority.

Minor Participants / Athletes, Arrival & Pickup

I understand that reasonable team supervision applies during the scope and duration of the scheduled practice and does not create unlimited childcare or custodial responsibility before or after the scheduled activity.

I agree to take reasonable steps consistent with the team's procedures and circumstances to ensure that minor Participants / Athletes are not knowingly left without required supervision during the scheduled activity.

When a safety or conduct issue requires a minor Participant / Athlete to stop participating or leave an activity area, I agree to take reasonable steps appropriate to the minor's age and circumstances, including contacting the parent/legal guardian or other authorized responsible adult when reasonably necessary.

Nothing in this Section requires me to knowingly release a minor Participant / Athlete into the care or transportation of a person whose lack of authorization or apparent impairment presents a reasonable safety concern.

Incidents & Reporting

I agree to promptly report to authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel any significant injury, suspected concussion, medical emergency, unsafe condition, damaged or malfunctioning equipment, property damage, threatening or violent behavior, suspected impairment creating a safety concern, or other significant incident arising during the scheduled practice.

Nothing in this agreement prohibits or delays a good-faith report of suspected abuse, assault, criminal activity, immediate danger, or other serious safety concern to law enforcement, emergency services, child-protection authorities, medical personnel, or another appropriate authority.

Nothing in this agreement eliminates, reduces, or replaces any reporting obligation that applicable law independently imposes on me.

If circumstances reasonably require immediate emergency assistance, I understand that I should contact 911 or another appropriate emergency responder rather than delay emergency action solely to make an internal report first.

CYOJ Hit Lab Safety Authority

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab retains authority over its facility, equipment, access, and safety rules.

CYOJ Hit Lab may immediately stop an activity, restrict equipment use, close or restrict an area, remove a Participant / Athlete or other person, suspend or terminate facility access, or end the scheduled practice when reasonably necessary because of unsafe conduct, impairment, rule violations, unauthorized use, property damage, failure to provide reasonable supervision, refusal to follow authorized staff instructions, or another significant safety or operational concern.

When immediate action involves a minor Participant / Athlete, reasonable safety measures may include keeping the minor in an appropriate supervised area while a parent/legal guardian or other authorized responsible adult is contacted, when reasonably necessary under the circumstances.

Any refund, credit, cancellation, or other financial consequence resulting from a practice being stopped or ended will be governed by the applicable written reservation, rental, booking, or payment terms and applicable law.

I agree to cooperate with reasonable safety decisions and directions made by authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel during the scheduled practice.

Relationship to Other Coach Provisions

This Section establishes team-supervision, facility-use, access, safety, and conduct responsibilities. It does not expand the Coach or Authorized Team Representative — Release of Liability, expand the Indemnification & Responsibility for Conduct provision, or eliminate any limitation or exception contained in those provisions.

A violation of a facility rule or team-supervision requirement does not automatically determine legal liability for an injury, incident, loss, or claim. Legal responsibility remains subject to the applicable facts, this agreement, and applicable law.

Nothing in this Section authorizes me to waive, release, or surrender the legal rights of another Participant / Athlete, parent, legal guardian, assistant coach, spectator, guest, or other person.

I have read these Team Supervision, Rules & Conduct requirements, understand the responsibilities applicable to my role, and agree to comply with them during the scheduled non-Hit Lab team practice.

Adult Participant / Athlete or Parent/Legal Guardian — Photography, Video & Media Authorization & Opt-Out

CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation may create photographs, video recordings, and other visual media involving Participants / Athletes during training sessions, practices, lessons, tryouts, camps, clinics, games, tournaments, events, facility activities, community activities, and other programs.

This Media Authorization addresses intentional photography, video, audio associated with authorized media productions, and public-facing organizational media use. It is separate from facility security, access-control, incident, safety, and other legitimate non-promotional recording addressed below.

When reasonably appropriate and permitted by law, a deliberately created video, interview, testimonial, training recording, or similar media production may also capture the Participant / Athlete’s voice or other audio associated with that specific recording.

This Media Authorization does not itself authorize continuous, ambient, or security audio recording in circumstances where separate notice, consent, or other legal requirements apply.

Nothing in this Media Authorization eliminates any separate notice, disclosure, consent, or other requirement that applies to the recording of a conversation or other audio under applicable law. When applicable law requires persons participating in a conversation to be informed that the conversation is being recorded, this Media Authorization does not replace that requirement.

Permitted Organizational Uses

Unless the Media Opt-Out is selected below, photographs, video, and other authorized media may be used for legitimate CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation purposes, including:

• Websites and digital communications;
• Social-media posts and stories;
• Advertising and promotional materials;
• Fundraising and nonprofit-development materials;
• Newsletters and email communications;
• Printed publications, flyers, posters, brochures, banners, and signage;
• Community outreach and public-relations materials;
• Team, Academy, program, camp, clinic, or event highlights;
• Athlete or program recognition;
• Training, instructional, or program-review materials; and
• Other similar legitimate organizational communications.

If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I authorize these uses on my own behalf. If the Participant / Athlete is under 18, I provide this authorization as the Participant / Athlete’s parent or legal guardian.

Unless I select the Media Opt-Out below, I authorize CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation to photograph or video record the Participant / Athlete and to edit, reproduce, display, publish, distribute, and use the Participant / Athlete’s image, likeness, name, voice when lawfully captured as part of an authorized recording, and athletic participation for the purposes described above without compensation.

Reasonable editing may include cropping, resizing, color or exposure correction, formatting, captioning, combining media with organizational graphics or text, adapting material for different publication formats, and other ordinary production or editorial changes consistent with the authorized organizational purposes.

This authorization is not intended to permit CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation to knowingly create a materially false or misleading representation of the Participant / Athlete, fabricate a testimonial or statement that the Participant / Athlete did not make, or intentionally use the Participant / Athlete’s image or likeness to imply endorsement of an unrelated third-party product or service without additional authorization when such authorization is required.

This Media Authorization does not by itself authorize CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation to use artificial intelligence or similar technology to create a materially synthetic or deceptive depiction of the Participant / Athlete, clone the Participant / Athlete’s voice, or depict the Participant / Athlete as saying, doing, endorsing, or participating in something that did not actually occur. Any materially synthetic use requiring separate authorization under applicable law or organizational policy must be separately authorized.

CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation may use employees, volunteers, photographers, videographers, printers, website providers, social-media or communications providers, designers, contractors, or other service providers to create, process, store, publish, or distribute authorized organizational media on their behalf.

This authorization does not itself authorize the sale or licensing of the Participant / Athlete’s name, image, likeness, or voice to an unrelated third party for that third party’s independent advertising or commercial purposes.

This authorization does not transfer ownership of personal photographs or recordings independently created by the Participant / Athlete or family and does not authorize CYOJ Hit Lab to access private personal accounts, devices, or files.

Names, Tags & Personal Social-Media Accounts

Authorization to use the Participant / Athlete’s name, image, likeness, voice, or athletic participation does not itself authorize CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation to access a private social-media account, personal device, private message, private file, or other private account or content belonging to the Participant / Athlete or family.

CYOJ Hit Lab does not require a Participant / Athlete to provide a personal social-media username merely because media permission is granted.

For a minor Participant / Athlete, CYOJ Hit Lab may refrain from tagging, linking, or directly identifying the minor’s personal social-media account unless the parent or legal guardian has separately authorized or requested that identification or the identification is otherwise appropriate and permitted by law.

Personal & Sensitive Information

Authorization to use the Participant / Athlete’s name, image, likeness, voice, or athletic participation does not itself authorize public disclosure of unrelated personal or sensitive information.

This Media Authorization does not by itself authorize CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation to publicly disclose the Participant / Athlete’s home address, personal telephone number, personal email address, date of birth, medical information, emergency-contact information, payment information, access credential, password, or other unrelated sensitive personal information.

Nothing in this paragraph prevents disclosure when separately authorized, reasonably necessary for a legitimate non-promotional organizational purpose, or otherwise permitted or required by law.

Media Authorization Is Separate From Participation

The Participant / Athlete is not required to authorize intentional promotional or public-facing media use as a condition of ordinary participation merely because CYOJ Hit Lab photographs or records other Participants / Athletes.

Selecting the Media Opt-Out does not, by itself, change the Participant / Athlete’s membership eligibility, Academy eligibility, team status, playing time, access rights, fees, training eligibility, or other participation rights governed by separate applicable terms.

This does not mean that CYOJ Hit Lab can guarantee complete physical separation from all cameras or recordings during team, tournament, event, public, group, security, or third-party activity as explained below.

Media Opt-Out

If I do not want the Participant / Athlete intentionally photographed, recorded, identified, or featured by CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation for promotional, advertising, fundraising, website, social-media, publication, or similar public-facing organizational use, I may select the Media Opt-Out option below.

Selecting the Media Opt-Out on this form is sufficient to record the opt-out. A separate email is not required.

CYOJ Hit Lab will make reasonable efforts not to intentionally photograph, record, identify, or feature a Participant / Athlete who has selected the Media Opt-Out for promotional or public-facing organizational purposes.

A Media Opt-Out does not prevent the Participant / Athlete from participating in CYOJ Hit Lab activities merely because photography or video may otherwise occur at the facility or activity.

A Media Opt-Out applies to intentional promotional and public-facing organizational use under CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation’s reasonable control. It does not represent that CYOJ can prevent every incidental appearance, third-party recording, livestream, tournament recording, security recording, or other recording outside that intentional promotional use.

Incidental Appearance & Third-Party Media

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab cannot guarantee that a Participant / Athlete who has selected the Media Opt-Out will never appear incidentally in a photograph, video, livestream, or other recording.

Incidental appearance may occur when the Participant / Athlete is:

• In the background of another activity, photograph, or recording;
• Present in a common, spectator, shared, or public area;
• Participating in a large group, team, tournament, game, community event, or public event;
• Present during a livestream or real-time recording not reasonably controlled by CYOJ Hit Lab;
• Photographed or recorded by another Participant / Athlete, family member, spectator, coach, team, tournament organizer, facility operator, media organization, visitor, or other third party; or
• Included in material that was created, printed, published, posted, distributed, or otherwise used before the Media Opt-Out was received.

CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation do not control photographs, videos, livestreams, social-media posts, or other recordings independently created or distributed by third parties.

The fact that CYOJ Hit Lab does not control independently created third-party media does not itself authorize a third party to record or use the Participant / Athlete’s image, release that third party from liability, or waive any legal right the Participant / Athlete or parent/legal guardian may otherwise have against that third party.

I understand that material lawfully posted or distributed through social-media platforms, websites, news media, public events, tournament platforms, or other third-party systems may be copied, shared, reposted, archived, downloaded, or otherwise redistributed by persons or systems outside CYOJ Hit Lab’s control.

Security, Safety, Incident & Operational Recording

The Media Opt-Out applies to intentional promotional and public-facing organizational use. It does not prohibit video recording, photography, or other documentation reasonably used for:

• Facility security;
• Access control;
• Incident documentation;
• Safety review;
• Investigation of injury, damage, misconduct, unauthorized access, or rule violations;
• Insurance purposes;
• Legal compliance;
• Internal operational records; or
• Another legitimate non-promotional organizational purpose.

Security surveillance and access-control systems are governed by the applicable facility rules and are separate from this promotional Media Authorization.

A Media Opt-Out does not require CYOJ Hit Lab to disable, obscure, or avoid legitimate security, access-control, safety, incident, insurance, legal, or operational recording merely because the Participant / Athlete enters an area where such recording lawfully occurs.

However, if a Participant / Athlete has selected the Media Opt-Out, security, access-control, incident, safety, or operational footage involving that Participant / Athlete will not intentionally be repurposed by CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation for promotional or similar public-facing media use unless separately authorized or otherwise permitted by applicable law.

Nothing in this section authorizes audio recording, biometric identification, facial-recognition technology, or another form of monitoring in circumstances where separate disclosure, consent, or other legal requirements apply.

This Media Authorization does not by itself authorize the creation of a biometric identifier, facial-recognition template, voiceprint, or other biometric profile from the Participant / Athlete’s media where separate authorization, notice, or legal requirements apply.

Privacy-Sensitive Areas

Nothing in this Media Authorization authorizes photography, video recording, surveillance, or other visual recording in a restroom, enclosed changing area, locker-room area used for dressing or showering, or another location or circumstance in which recording would violate applicable privacy law.

This Media Authorization does not eliminate any reasonable expectation of privacy that applicable law recognizes in a particular location or circumstance.

Previously Published Material

If a Media Opt-Out is submitted after photographs, videos, publications, posts, printed materials, or other media have already been lawfully created or distributed, CYOJ Hit Lab is not required to retrieve, destroy, recall, or remove every previously distributed copy.

CYOJ Hit Lab will make reasonable efforts to apply the updated preference to future intentional promotional use under its control.

When reasonably practicable after a Media Opt-Out has been received and processed, CYOJ Hit Lab will discontinue future intentional promotional or public-facing use of controlled media involving the Participant / Athlete.

I understand that previously distributed printed materials, downloaded files, archived materials, screenshots, reposts, copies held by third parties, social-media shares, or other material outside CYOJ Hit Lab’s reasonable control may continue to exist after a preference is changed.

A changed preference does not require CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation to retrieve, erase, destroy, or remove every previously published, printed, distributed, archived, downloaded, reposted, shared, or third-party copy and does not guarantee removal from platforms, systems, publications, or records outside CYOJ Hit Lab’s reasonable control.

Changing a Media Preference

The adult Participant / Athlete or the parent/legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete may contact support@cyojhitlab.com to request a change to the Participant / Athlete’s media preference.

CYOJ Hit Lab will make reasonable efforts to apply a changed preference to future intentional promotional and public-facing use after the request is received and processed.

A change from permission to Media Opt-Out operates prospectively after the request is received and processed and does not automatically invalidate media use that was authorized and lawfully created, published, printed, distributed, or provided to third parties before the changed preference became effective.

A change from Media Opt-Out to permission applies to future intentional media use after the updated preference is received and processed unless CYOJ Hit Lab separately confirms that an earlier image or recording may also be used.

Relationship to Other Sections of This Agreement

This Section 6 governs photography, video, media authorization, and the Media Opt-Out. It does not independently expand the Release of Liability in Section 2, expand the Indemnification provision in Section 3, or eliminate any limitation or exception contained elsewhere in this agreement.

Authorization to photograph, record, publish, or use media does not by itself constitute an assumption of another person's negligence, a release of an otherwise nonwaivable claim, an agreement to indemnify another person, or a surrender of privacy rights unrelated to the media uses actually authorized in this Section.

Likewise, selecting the Media Opt-Out does not modify the Participant / Athlete’s separate waiver, membership, Academy, team, booking, payment, access, or other participation terms.

MEDIA OPT-OUT — CHECK ONLY IF YOU DO NOT GIVE PERMISSION

Leave the Media Opt-Out box below UNCHECKED if you permit CYOJ Hit Lab / Create Your Own Journey Foundation to use the Participant / Athlete’s image, likeness, name, voice when lawfully captured, and athletic participation as described above.

CHECK the box below ONLY if you are choosing to opt out of intentional promotional, advertising, fundraising, website, social-media, publication, or similar public-facing organizational use.

Non-Hit Lab Team Practice — Photography, Video & Media Notice

This Section addresses photography, video, media use, individual Participant / Athlete media rights, and the optional Team Media Opt-Out for a non-Hit Lab team practice. It does not authorize the Coach or Authorized Team Representative to grant media permission on behalf of individual Participants / Athletes unless that person independently possesses legal authority to do so.

CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation may create photographs, video recordings, and other visual media during activities occurring at CYOJ Hit Lab for legitimate organizational purposes.

Such purposes may include facility operations, training or program review, websites, social media, promotional or fundraising materials, newsletters, printed publications, community outreach, team or facility highlights, and other legitimate digital or print communications.

When reasonably appropriate and permitted by law, a deliberately created interview, testimonial, training recording, or similar media production may also capture a person’s voice or other audio associated with that specific recording.

This notice does not itself authorize continuous, ambient, or security audio recording in circumstances where separate notice, consent, or other legal requirements apply.

Nothing in this notice eliminates any separate notice, disclosure, consent, or other requirement that applies to recording a conversation or other audio under applicable law.

Individual Participant / Athlete Media Rights

The Coach or Authorized Team Representative acknowledges that photography or recording may occur during the scheduled non-Hit Lab team practice and agrees to take reasonable steps to notify participating adults and the parents or legal guardians of minor Participants / Athletes that such recording may occur.

This acknowledgment does not authorize the Coach or Authorized Team Representative to grant photography, recording, publicity, or media permission on behalf of an individual Participant / Athlete unless the representative possesses separate legal authority to do so.

Each adult Participant / Athlete—or the parent or legal guardian of each minor Participant / Athlete—must complete the required individual CYOJ Hit Lab waiver.

The individual Participant / Athlete’s media authorization or Media Opt-Out selection contained in that waiver controls CYOJ Hit Lab’s intentional promotional or public-facing use of that individual’s image, likeness, name, voice when lawfully captured, or athletic participation.

The absence of a Team Media Opt-Out does not itself grant CYOJ Hit Lab media permission for an individual Participant / Athlete. Individual media authorization remains governed by the applicable individual Participant / Athlete waiver.

Likewise, the Coach or Authorized Team Representative may not override an individual Media Opt-Out by signing this agreement, listing the Participant / Athlete on the team roster, permitting the Participant / Athlete to attend the practice, or declining to select the Team Media Opt-Out.

If the Coach or Authorized Team Representative is also the parent or legal guardian of an individual minor Participant / Athlete, any individual media permission or Media Opt-Out for that minor must be made through the applicable individual Participant / Athlete waiver and not merely through this team-level provision.

Team-Level Media Opt-Out

The Coach or Authorized Team Representative may request that the team as a group not be intentionally photographed, video recorded, identified, or featured by CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation for promotional, advertising, fundraising, website, social-media, publication, or similar public-facing organizational use by selecting the Team Media Opt-Out option below.

Selecting the Team Media Opt-Out on this form is sufficient to record the team-level opt-out. A separate email is not required.

A team-level opt-out does not override or reduce an individual Participant / Athlete’s rights or media preferences. Likewise, the absence of a team-level opt-out does not override an individual Participant / Athlete’s Media Opt-Out.

CYOJ Hit Lab will make reasonable efforts not to intentionally identify or feature a team that has selected the Team Media Opt-Out in promotional or public-facing organizational materials.

The Team Media Opt-Out applies to intentional presentation of the outside team as a team, group, or identifiable team activity. It is an additional team-level restriction and does not replace the individual media preference applicable to each Participant / Athlete.

If the Team Media Opt-Out is selected, CYOJ Hit Lab will make reasonable efforts not to intentionally create or use promotional or public-facing media that identifies or features the outside team as a group.

An individual Participant / Athlete’s separate media authorization does not cancel a Team Media Opt-Out with respect to intentional team-as-a-group promotional use. Individual media use outside a team-as-a-group presentation remains governed by that individual’s applicable media authorization and the circumstances of the proposed use.

A Team Media Opt-Out does not prevent the team or its Participants / Athletes from using CYOJ Hit Lab merely because photography, video, security recording, or third-party media activity may otherwise occur at or around the facility.

Names, Team Identification & Personal Information

Permission to identify or feature a team does not by itself authorize public disclosure of unrelated personal or sensitive information concerning an individual Participant / Athlete, coach, parent, legal guardian, or other person.

This team-level provision does not itself authorize public disclosure of an individual Participant / Athlete’s home address, personal telephone number, personal email address, date of birth, medical information, emergency-contact information, payment information, access credential, password, or other unrelated sensitive personal information.

Any use of an individual Participant / Athlete’s name, image, likeness, voice, or athletic participation remains subject to the applicable individual media authorization or Media Opt-Out.

Incidental Appearance & Third-Party Media

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab cannot guarantee that a team or individual Participant / Athlete who has selected an applicable opt-out will never appear incidentally in a photograph, video, livestream, or other recording.

Incidental appearance may occur when the team or individual is:

• In the background of another activity, photograph, or recording;
• Present in a common, spectator, shared, or public area;
• Included in group or facility-wide footage;
• Present during a livestream or other real-time recording not reasonably controlled by CYOJ Hit Lab;
• Photographed or recorded by a Participant / Athlete, parent, spectator, outside coach, tournament organizer, media organization, facility visitor, or other third party; or
• Included in material that was created, published, distributed, printed, or otherwise used before the applicable opt-out was received.

CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation do not control photographs, videos, livestreams, social-media posts, or other recordings independently created or distributed by outside teams, coaches, parents, Participants / Athletes, spectators, tournament operators, media organizations, facility visitors, or other third parties.

The fact that CYOJ Hit Lab does not control independently created third-party media does not itself authorize the third party to record, publish, distribute, or use another person's image, waive another person's rights, or release the third party from responsibility that otherwise exists under applicable law.

I understand that media lawfully posted or distributed through social-media platforms, websites, livestream services, tournament systems, public events, or other third-party systems may be copied, shared, reposted, archived, downloaded, or redistributed outside CYOJ Hit Lab’s reasonable control.

Security, Safety, Incident & Operational Recording

A Team Media Opt-Out or individual Media Opt-Out applies to intentional promotional and public-facing organizational use. It does not prohibit video recording, photography, or other documentation reasonably used for:

• Facility security;
• Access control;
• Incident documentation;
• Safety review;
• Investigation of injury, property damage, misconduct, unauthorized access, or rule violations;
• Insurance purposes;
• Legal compliance;
• Internal operational records; or
• Another legitimate non-promotional organizational purpose.

Security surveillance and access-control systems are governed by the applicable CYOJ Hit Lab facility rules and are separate from promotional media authorization.

A Team Media Opt-Out or individual Media Opt-Out does not require CYOJ Hit Lab to disable or avoid legitimate security, access-control, safety, incident, insurance, legal, or operational recording merely because the team or Participant / Athlete enters an area where such recording lawfully occurs.

If a Team Media Opt-Out has been selected, security, safety, incident, access-control, or operational footage will not intentionally be repurposed by CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation to feature the outside team as a group for promotional or similar public-facing organizational use unless separately authorized or otherwise permitted by applicable law.

Nothing in this notice authorizes continuous or ambient audio recording, biometric identification, facial-recognition technology, or another form of monitoring in circumstances where separate disclosure, consent, or other legal requirements apply.

This notice does not itself authorize creation of a biometric identifier, facial-recognition template, voiceprint, or other biometric profile from media involving a Participant / Athlete, coach, or other person when separate authorization, disclosure, or other legal requirements apply.

Artificial Intelligence & Synthetic Media

This media notice does not by itself authorize CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation to use artificial intelligence or similar technology to create a materially synthetic or deceptive depiction of a Participant / Athlete, coach, team representative, or outside team; clone a person's voice; or depict a person or team as saying, doing, endorsing, or participating in something that did not actually occur.

Ordinary media production activities such as cropping, resizing, formatting, exposure or color correction, captioning, and combining authorized media with organizational text or graphics are different from materially synthetic or deceptive media creation.

Privacy-Sensitive Areas

Nothing in this notice authorizes photography, video recording, surveillance, or other visual recording in a restroom, enclosed changing area, locker-room area used for dressing or showering, or another location or circumstance in which recording would violate applicable privacy law.

This notice does not eliminate any reasonable expectation of privacy recognized by applicable law.

Previously Created or Distributed Media

If an applicable media preference changes after photographs, videos, publications, posts, printed materials, or other media have already been lawfully created or distributed, CYOJ Hit Lab is not required to retrieve, destroy, recall, or remove every previously distributed copy.

CYOJ Hit Lab will make reasonable efforts to apply a changed preference to future intentional promotional use under its control after the change is received and processed.

Previously distributed printed materials, downloaded files, archived materials, screenshots, reposts, social-media shares, copies held by third parties, or other media outside CYOJ Hit Lab’s reasonable control may continue to exist after a Team Media Opt-Out or individual Media Opt-Out is submitted or changed.

Changing the Team Media Preference

The Coach or Authorized Team Representative may contact support@cyojhitlab.com to request a change to the outside team’s team-level media preference.

CYOJ Hit Lab will make reasonable efforts to apply a changed Team Media Opt-Out preference to future intentional team-as-a-group promotional and public-facing use after the request is received and processed.

A change to the team-level preference does not automatically change, cancel, create, or override any individual Participant / Athlete’s media authorization or Media Opt-Out.

A later Team Media Opt-Out also does not automatically invalidate media that was lawfully created, published, printed, distributed, or provided to third parties before the changed preference became effective.

Relationship to Other Coach & Participant Provisions

This media notice does not expand the Coach or Authorized Team Representative — Release of Liability, expand the Coach Indemnification & Responsibility for Conduct provision, or waive any legal right belonging to an individual Participant / Athlete or another person.

The Coach or Authorized Team Representative’s signature confirms acknowledgment of this media notice and any team-level Media Opt-Out selection but does not substitute for the individual Participant / Athlete media authorization required through the applicable individual waiver.

The individual Participant / Athlete's media preference and the team's Team Media Opt-Out operate together: individual authorization controls intentional use of the individual, while the Team Media Opt-Out provides an additional restriction on intentionally featuring the outside team as a team or group.

Adult Participant / Athlete or Parent/Legal Guardian — Final Acknowledgment

This Final Acknowledgment confirms my review and acceptance of the provisions applicable to the activity, program, membership, facility use, or other participation arrangement I selected. It does not independently expand the scope of any Release of Liability, indemnification obligation, medical authorization, media authorization, or other provision contained elsewhere in this agreement.

I acknowledge that I have carefully read and understand this agreement and the provisions displayed for the activity or program I selected, including, when applicable:

• The activity-specific Assumption of Risk contained in Section 1;
• The Release of Liability contained in Section 2;
• Indemnification & Responsibility for Conduct contained in Section 3;
• Medical Authorization & Emergency Response contained in Section 4;
• Rules, Supervision & Conduct contained in Section 5;
• Photography, Video & Media Authorization & Opt-Out contained in Section 6;
• Facility-access, supervision, Access Credential, staffed or unstaffed use, security, conduct, cleanliness, and other applicable facility requirements; and
• Any activity-specific conduct agreement, team agreement, membership terms notice, policy acknowledgment, program requirement, or other additional terms displayed for the activity or program I selected.

I understand that the Section 1 displayed to me identifies risks associated with the activity or program I selected and that Section 2 contains the separate Release of Liability governing certain claims for injuries resulting from those disclosed risks.

I understand that describing a risk in this agreement as an “inherent” risk, an “inherent and other” risk, or another type of risk does not by itself determine whether that risk is legally inherent to an activity. Any legal determination concerning whether a particular risk is inherent remains subject to applicable law.

If I am the adult Participant / Athlete, I sign this agreement on my own behalf. If the Participant / Athlete is under 18, I certify that I am the Participant / Athlete’s parent or legal guardian and that I have authority to sign this agreement on behalf of the minor Participant / Athlete.

If I am signing as a parent or legal guardian, my signature applies only to the minor Participant / Athlete for whom I possess legal authority. My signature does not waive rights or create contractual obligations on behalf of another adult, another family, another minor for whom I lack legal authority, or another person merely because that person is participating in or associated with the same activity.

I understand that participation is voluntary and that athletic, recreational, instructional, training, facility-use, and related activities involve inherent and other risks that cannot be completely eliminated.

I understand that, by signing this agreement, I am accepting the risks disclosed in this agreement and giving up substantial legal rights, including the right to bring certain claims for ordinary negligence, to the fullest extent permitted by Oregon law.

I specifically understand that the Release of Liability in Section 2 addresses certain claims for damages for injuries resulting from ordinary negligence arising out of the applicable sport, fitness, recreational, training, or related activity and from the risks disclosed for that activity, only to the extent permitted by Oregon law.

I understand that this agreement does not release or waive any claim that applicable law does not permit to be released or waived.

I understand that the limitations and exclusions stated in Section 2 remain effective and are not eliminated, narrowed, or overridden by this Final Acknowledgment or by any other section of this agreement.

If any release language is broader than applicable law permits, I understand that the agreement is intended to operate only within the lawful limits applicable to that release and not to create a waiver of claims that applicable law does not permit to be waived.

I certify that the information I have provided is accurate and reasonably complete to the best of my knowledge, including information concerning the Participant / Athlete’s identity, age, emergency contacts, medical conditions or restrictions, and other information requested for safe participation or emergency response.

I understand that I am responsible for notifying CYOJ Hit Lab of material changes to information that could reasonably affect the Participant / Athlete’s safe participation, supervision requirements, emergency response, eligibility, or authorized facility access.

I understand that this responsibility applies to information reasonably known to me and does not require me to diagnose an unknown medical condition or predict an unexpected medical event.

I understand that the Participant / Athlete and persons associated with the Participant / Athlete must comply with applicable CYOJ Hit Lab safety, conduct, supervision, access, security, equipment-use, cleanliness, and facility rules.

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab may use Access Credentials and other current or future access-control methods and that possession or use of an Access Credential does not guarantee staff presence, continuous supervision, or unrestricted facility access.

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab does not provide general childcare or custodial supervision merely because a minor is a member, Participant / Athlete, guest, or present at the facility. Any supervision undertaken by a coach or staff member is limited to the scope and duration of the applicable scheduled activity.

I understand that authorized unstaffed, extended-hours, or after-hours access may involve periods when CYOJ Hit Lab personnel are not physically present and that security cameras, access-control systems, or other technology do not constitute continuous personal or emergency supervision.

I understand that any Media Opt-Out selection I make is incorporated into this agreement and that security, safety, incident, access-control, and legitimate internal operational recording are separate from intentional promotional media use as described in Section 6.

I understand that selecting the Media Opt-Out does not invalidate, cancel, or modify the other provisions of this agreement and does not by itself affect the Participant / Athlete’s otherwise authorized participation.

I understand that any additional activity-specific terms, membership terms, conduct agreement, team agreement, program acknowledgment, policy acknowledgment, or other requirement actually displayed for the activity or program I selected is incorporated into this agreement.

For purposes of this acknowledgment, incorporated terms are limited to terms that are applicable to the activity, program, role, or arrangement I selected and that were actually displayed, presented, linked, or otherwise made available to me as part of the applicable agreement process.

Nothing in this acknowledgment incorporates an undisclosed future release of liability, future indemnification obligation, or other material waiver merely because CYOJ Hit Lab later creates or changes a policy, form, or agreement.

Reasonable future safety, facility-use, access, security, scheduling, cleanliness, and operational rules may apply to future facility use as described in Section 5, but those operational rules do not by themselves retroactively expand the Release of Liability in Section 2 or the Indemnification provision in Section 3.

I understand that payment, enrollment, checkout, booking, or other commercial arrangements may be governed by separate written terms applicable to the selected membership, program, team, training service, rental, event, or other purchase, and that this waiver does not itself replace or modify those separate commercial terms.

Completion of payment, checkout, enrollment, or booking does not replace the requirement that the applicable waiver be completed by the adult Participant / Athlete or by the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete.

I also understand that completion of this waiver does not by itself establish that payment has been made, an account is current, a membership is active, a roster position exists, a reservation has been created, or any other separate commercial or participation requirement has been satisfied.

Understanding of Separate Provisions

I understand that the sections of this agreement perform different functions:

• Section 1 discloses risks associated with the selected activity or program and documents assumption and acceptance of those risks;
• Section 2 contains the Release of Liability and describes the claims intended to be released and the claims or conduct that remain outside that release;
• Section 3 addresses responsibility for conduct, property damage, expressly accepted responsibilities, and certain third-party claims;
• Section 4 addresses medical information, immediate safety action, first aid, and emergency response;
• Section 5 establishes applicable facility-use, supervision, access, safety, security, and conduct requirements; and
• Section 6 governs photography, video, media authorization, and the Media Opt-Out.

I understand that my acceptance of one Section does not enlarge the scope of another Section beyond the terms actually stated in that Section and permitted by applicable law.

Opportunity to Review

I acknowledge that the applicable provisions of this agreement have been presented to me before I sign and submit the agreement.

I acknowledge that I have had the opportunity to read the agreement carefully and to consider the activity-specific risks, Release of Liability, indemnification responsibilities, medical authorization, facility rules, supervision requirements, media provisions, and other applicable terms before deciding whether to participate or permit the minor Participant / Athlete to participate.

I understand that I may ask CYOJ Hit Lab questions concerning the agreement or decline participation or facility use rather than sign an agreement I do not understand or do not wish to accept.

Voluntary Agreement

I acknowledge that I have had the opportunity to review this agreement, ask questions before signing, and decline participation or facility use.

I understand that I should not sign this agreement if I do not understand or agree to the terms that apply to the selected activity or my role.

I understand that the Release of Liability in Section 2 involves the waiver of substantial legal rights and that I should review that Section carefully before signing.

I understand that no statement in this Final Acknowledgment is intended to cause me to waive a claim that applicable law does not permit CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation to require me to waive.

I am signing and submitting this agreement freely and voluntarily and without coercion.

By proceeding to the signature portion of this agreement, I confirm that I have reviewed the provisions applicable to the selected activity or program, understand that my signature is intended to evidence my acceptance of those applicable terms, and understand that the Electronic Signature & Certification provision below governs the electronic signing and submission of this agreement.

By signing and submitting this agreement, I consent to conduct this transaction electronically. I confirm that the electronic signature I provide is my signature, that I am signing in the role identified in this form, and that I intend my electronic signature to authenticate this agreement and evidence my acceptance of the provisions applicable to the selected activity, program, facility use, or other arrangement and to my identified role.

I confirm that I have had the opportunity to review the applicable provisions of this agreement before signing and that I have read, understood, and voluntarily accepted the terms displayed for the selected activity and my role as applicable:

• as the Adult Participant / Athlete, when I am participating on my own behalf;
• as the Parent or Legal Guardian of a Minor Participant / Athlete, when I possess legal authority to sign for that minor; or
• as the Coach or Authorized Team Representative, when I am completing the coach/team-representative provisions applicable to a non-Hit Lab team practice or other authorized outside-team activity.

If I am signing as the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete, I certify that I am the minor's parent or legal guardian and possess authority to sign this agreement on behalf of that minor.

If I am signing as a Coach or Authorized Team Representative, I understand that my signature applies only to the responsibilities and provisions applicable to that role and does not replace, satisfy, or waive the requirement that each adult Participant / Athlete—or the parent or legal guardian of each minor Participant / Athlete—complete any required individual Participant / Athlete waiver.

I understand that an electronic signature may have the same legal effect as a handwritten signature to the extent provided by applicable law, and I intend my electronic signature to have that effect.

I authorize CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation to retain this completed agreement and associated electronic submission records, including the signature and available submission date and time information, for later reference, recordkeeping, safety, operational, insurance, and legal purposes consistent with applicable law.

If an electronic copy of the completed agreement is provided to me by email, electronic download, or another electronic method, I consent to receive and retain that copy electronically.

I am signing and submitting this agreement freely and voluntarily.

Coach or Authorized Team Representative — Final Acknowledgment

This Final Acknowledgment confirms my review and acceptance of the provisions that apply to me as the Coach or Authorized Team Representative for the scheduled non-Hit Lab team practice. It does not independently expand the scope of the Coach Release of Liability, Indemnification & Responsibility for Conduct provision, emergency-response responsibilities, team-supervision responsibilities, media provisions, or any other provision contained elsewhere in this agreement.

I certify that I am the coach or an authorized representative of the team or organization identified in this agreement and that the team, practice, and roster information I have provided is accurate and reasonably complete to the best of my knowledge.

I understand that this certification applies to information reasonably known to me and does not make me strictly responsible for an innocent clerical error, an unknown last-minute roster change, or information that I could not reasonably know or verify.

I acknowledge that I have carefully read and understand the coach-specific provisions of this agreement, including the Non-Hit Lab Team Practice Assumption of Risk, Coach or Authorized Team Representative Release of Liability, Indemnification & Responsibility for Conduct, Emergency Response & Medical Information responsibilities, Team Supervision, Rules & Conduct requirements, Alcohol, Cannabis, Drugs & Impairment policy, facility safety requirements, and Photography, Video & Media Notice.

Understanding of Coach-Specific Provisions

I understand that the coach-specific provisions perform different functions:

• Coach Section 1 — Non-Hit Lab Team Practice Assumption of Risk identifies risks associated with my presence, coaching, supervision, movement through the facility, participation when applicable, assistance with athletic activity, and authorized facility and equipment use;
• Coach Section 2 — Release of Liability addresses certain claims belonging to me for my own injuries and applies only within the scope permitted by Oregon law;
• Coach Section 3 — Indemnification & Responsibility for Conduct addresses my own conduct, representations, property damage, expressly accepted responsibilities, and certain third-party claims;
• Coach Section 4 — Emergency Response & Medical Information addresses emergency-contact information, immediate safety action, concussion response, medical information reasonably provided to the team, and limited emergency-response responsibilities;
• Team Supervision, Rules & Conduct establishes reasonable team-supervision, facility-use, access, safety, equipment, conduct, and reporting responsibilities; and
• Photography, Video & Media Notice explains individual media rights, team-level media preferences, incidental and third-party media, and the Team Media Opt-Out.

I understand that acceptance of one coach-specific provision does not enlarge the scope of another provision beyond the terms stated in that provision and permitted by applicable law.

Coach Release of Liability

I understand that the Coach or Authorized Team Representative — Release of Liability affects substantial legal rights and is intended to release certain claims belonging to me for injuries resulting from ordinary negligence only to the extent permitted by Oregon law.

I understand that the limitations and exclusions contained in the Coach Release remain effective and are not eliminated, narrowed, or overridden by this Final Acknowledgment, the Indemnification provision, the Team Supervision provision, or another part of the coach agreement.

I understand that this Final Acknowledgment does not convert a claim that is excluded from or outside the lawful scope of the Coach Release into a released claim.

Reasonable Team Supervision

I understand that I am responsible for exercising reasonable supervision and direction within the scope of my role during the scheduled non-Hit Lab team practice and for cooperating with authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel concerning safety, facility access, equipment use, conduct, and emergency response.

I understand that my supervision responsibility is limited by my role, authority, knowledge, and the circumstances and does not make me an insurer or guarantor of every Participant / Athlete, assistant coach, parent, legal guardian, spectator, guest, or other person associated with the team.

I understand that the outside team remains responsible for its ordinary coaching, practice organization, player direction, and reasonable team supervision, while CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation retain responsibility and authority for their own facility, equipment, access systems, safety requirements, and operations as provided by applicable law and this agreement.

Individual Participant / Athlete Waivers

I understand that every adult Participant / Athlete—or the parent or legal guardian of every minor Participant / Athlete—must complete the required individual CYOJ Hit Lab waiver before participating.

I agree to take reasonable steps to ensure that required individual waivers are completed before participation and to cooperate with CYOJ Hit Lab personnel if waiver status must be confirmed.

I understand that the team roster, this acknowledgment, and my signature do not replace an individual Participant / Athlete waiver and do not authorize me to waive, release, or otherwise surrender the legal rights of any Participant / Athlete, parent, legal guardian, assistant coach, spectator, guest, or other person.

I understand that payment, team registration, roster placement, a facility reservation, an Access Credential, or permission to enter the facility does not by itself establish that an individual Participant / Athlete waiver has been completed.

I understand that I am not responsible for making a legal determination concerning another person's parental authority or legal capacity to sign. My responsibility is to take reasonable steps within my role to ensure that required waivers are completed and to cooperate with CYOJ Hit Lab when waiver status must be verified.

If I personally participate in athletic activity in a manner that requires a separate individual Participant / Athlete waiver under CYOJ Hit Lab rules, I understand that completion of this Coach or Authorized Team Representative agreement does not automatically replace that separate individual waiver requirement.

Emergency Information & Medical Authority

I certify that I have current emergency-contact information for the Participants / Athletes listed for the scheduled practice and will keep that information reasonably accessible during the activity.

I understand that this certification applies to emergency-contact information provided to me or the team and reasonably known to me. It does not require me to independently investigate or verify undisclosed medical information or conditions.

I understand that this agreement does not appoint me as the legal guardian or general medical decision-maker for any Participant / Athlete and does not give me authority to consent to non-emergency medical treatment for another person unless I possess separate legal authority to do so.

I understand that emergency circumstances may require me or another responsible person to contact 911 or other emergency responders before a parent, legal guardian, emergency contact, or CYOJ Hit Lab representative can be reached.

I understand that any applicable concussion-removal, medical-release, or return-to-participation requirement remains controlling and cannot be overridden merely because a Participant / Athlete, parent/legal guardian, coach, or other person requests continued or resumed participation.

Team Media Opt-Out & Individual Media Rights

I understand that any Team Media Opt-Out selection I make applies only at the team level and does not override or replace the individual media authorization or Media Opt-Out selection made by an adult Participant / Athlete or by the parent or legal guardian of a minor Participant / Athlete.

I understand that the absence of a Team Media Opt-Out does not itself grant media permission for any individual Participant / Athlete.

The individual Participant / Athlete’s applicable media authorization or Media Opt-Out controls CYOJ Hit Lab’s intentional promotional or public-facing use of that individual, while the Team Media Opt-Out provides an additional restriction concerning intentional presentation of the outside team as a team or group.

I understand that I do not have authority through this coach agreement to override an individual Participant / Athlete’s Media Opt-Out or to grant media rights belonging to another person unless I independently possess legal authority to do so.

CYOJ Hit Lab Facility & Safety Authority

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab and Create Your Own Journey Foundation retain authority over their facility, equipment, safety rules, and access and may take reasonable immediate action when necessary to address unsafe conduct, impairment, emergencies, rule violations, property damage, or other significant safety or operational concerns.

I understand that CYOJ Hit Lab's facility and safety authority does not eliminate the outside team's reasonable coaching and supervision responsibilities, and the outside team's responsibilities do not transfer to the Coach or Authorized Team Representative legal duties that applicable law independently places on CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation.

I agree to cooperate with reasonable immediate safety, access, equipment-use, emergency, and facility-operation decisions made by authorized CYOJ Hit Lab personnel during the scheduled practice.

Separate Commercial Terms

I understand that the reservation, rental, facility-use charge, team booking, cancellation terms, payment arrangement, or other commercial terms applicable to the scheduled practice may be governed by a separate written agreement, invoice, checkout, reservation, booking, or payment arrangement.

This Coach or Authorized Team Representative agreement does not itself change those separate financial terms, and those financial terms do not replace the safety, waiver, supervision, or participation requirements contained in this agreement.

Opportunity to Review & Voluntary Agreement

I acknowledge that I have had the opportunity to review this agreement, ask questions before signing, and decline to use the facility for the scheduled practice. I accept the responsibilities that apply to me freely and voluntarily.

I understand that I should not sign this agreement if I do not understand or agree to the terms applicable to my role.

I understand that the Coach or Authorized Team Representative — Release of Liability involves the waiver of substantial legal rights and that I should review that provision carefully before signing.

I understand that no statement in this Final Acknowledgment is intended to cause me to release a claim that applicable law does not permit CYOJ Hit Lab or Create Your Own Journey Foundation to require me to release.

I am accepting the coach-specific provisions and responsibilities displayed to me for the scheduled non-Hit Lab team practice freely and voluntarily and without coercion.

Electronic Submission

By signing and submitting this agreement, I consent to conduct this transaction electronically and to receive and retain an electronic copy of the completed agreement. I intend my electronic signature to authenticate this agreement and to have the same legal effect as my handwritten signature.

I understand that the separate Coach Electronic Signature and Certification portion of the form governs the electronic execution and authentication of this agreement and does not independently expand the substantive Release, indemnification, supervision, medical, media, or other obligations described above.
