Amateur Athletic Minor Waiver and Release of Liability

In consideration of being allowed to participate in any way in Alaska Arsenal programs, related events, and activities, I agree that I, as parent or legal guardian, will instruct the minor participant that prior to participating, they should inspect the facilities and equipment to be used, and if the participant believes anything is unsafe, they should immediately advise their team manager or coach of such condition and refuse to participate.

I willingly agree to comply with the program's stated and customary terms and conditions for participation. If I observe any unusual significant concern in my child's readiness for participation and/or in the program itself, I will remove my child from participation and bring such attention to the nearest board member, coach, or assistant coach immediately.

I acknowledge and fully understand that each participant will be engaging in activities that involve risk of serious injury, including permanent disability and death, and that severe social and economic losses might result not only from their own actions, inactions, or negligence, but the action, inaction, or negligence of others, the rules of play, or the condition of the premises or of any equipment used. Further, there may be other risks not known to us or not reasonably foreseeable at this time.

These risks of baseball and softball include, but are not limited to:

• Slips, trips, and falls
• Being struck by bats, balls, or other equipment
• Collisions with players, coaches, spectators, fences, or field equipment
• Muscle strains, sprains, fractures, concussions, and other injuries
• Heat- or cold-related illnesses
• Travel-related risks associated with practices, games, tournaments, and team activities

I assume all of the foregoing risk and accept personal responsibility for the damages following such injury, permanent disability, or death. For myself, my spouse, and my child, I knowingly and freely assume all such risks, both known and unknown, even if arising from the negligence of the releasees or others, and assume full responsibility for my child's participation.

I release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue Alaska Arsenal, its affiliated clubs, their respective administrators, directors, board members, agents, coaches, and other employees of the organization, other participants, sponsoring agencies, sponsors, advertisers, volunteers, and, if applicable, owners and lessees of premises used to conduct the event, all of which are hereafter referred to as "releasees," from any and all liability to each of the undersigned, his or her heirs and next-of-kin for any and all claims, demands, losses, or damages on account of injury, including death or damage to property, caused or alleged to be caused in whole or in part by the negligence of the releasees or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

I have read this Waiver and Release of Liability and Assumption of Risk, understand its terms, understand that I have given up substantial rights by signing it, and sign it freely and voluntarily without any inducement.

By signing, I also certify that:

• I am the parent or legal guardian of the minor participant.
• I have had the opportunity to ask questions before signing.
• This agreement is intended to remain in effect for the current Alaska Arsenal season unless replaced by a newer agreement.

If a parent or emergency contact cannot be reached, I authorize Alaska Arsenal representatives to obtain emergency medical treatment for my child when reasonably necessary. I understand that every reasonable effort will be made to contact me before treatment whenever possible. I accept financial responsibility for medical expenses not covered by insurance.
