MEDICAL AND LIABILITY WAIVER

 

 

ALL PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES HAVE RISKS.

 

I participate in the game of soccer because it is physically and mentally challenging.  In consideration of my participation in such programs, activities and events, I hereby acknowledge that I am aware of the risks and hazards associated with or related to this activity.  The risks and hazards include, but are not limited to:

 

  • Injuries from executing strenuous and demanding physical techniques in soccer;

  • Injuries from dry land training including weights, running and massage:

  • Injuries from grass, turf and other surfaces including bacterial infections and rashes;

  • Injuries resulting from falls to the ground due to uneven or irregular terrain or surface;

  • Injuries from collisions and soccer equipment;

  • Injuries resulting from failure to properly use any piece or equipment or from mechanical failure of any piece of equipment;

  • Spinal cord injuries which may render me permanently paralyzed;

  • Injuries from extreme weather conditions which may result in heatstroke, sunstroke or hypothermia;

  • Injuries from contact, colliding or being struck by other participants, spectators, equipment or vehicles;

  • Injuries resulting from vigorous physical exertion and strenuous cardiovascular workouts;

  • Injuries from exerting and stretching various muscle groups; and

  • Travel to and from competitive events and associated non-competitive events which are an integral part of the organization’s activities.

Furthermore, I am aware:

 

  • That injuries sustained in soccer can be severe;

  • That I may experience anxiety while challenging myself during the activities.

  • That I may come into close contact with other participants, including the possibility of accidental and unexpected contact;

  • That my risk of injury is reduced if I follow all rules established for participation; and

  • That my risk of injury increases as I become fatigued.

 

I AGREE TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MYSELF.

 

I am participating voluntarily in these activities, events and programs.  I agree that there are risks in soccer as described above.  By participating voluntarily in these events, activities and programs, I am exposed to these risks and hazards.  I agree to accept them and be responsible for any injury or other loss which I might receive while participating in these events, activities and programs.

 

In the event that something happens to me, I release the organizers of responsibility for any claims, demands, actions and costs which might arise out of my participation.  In this Agreement I understand “organizers” to mean: The Red Devils Academy (RDA), it’s affiliate associations and their directors, officers, members, employees, volunteers, officials, participants, clubs, agents, sponsors, owners/operators of facilities and representatives.

 

PRE-EXISTING INJURIES OR CONDITIONS

 

RDA, its agents and affiliates, will not be held responsible for preexisting injuries or conditions that occurred prior to participating in any RDA training program and/or tryout session.

 

Disqualification due to a preexisting problem is at the discretion of the Staff at RDA. Failure to report and document preexisting medical problems releases RDA from any liability in the event of another problem caused by the initial problem.  RDA will not be financially responsible for medications for preexisting conditions or for non-athletic injuries or conditions such as asthma, allergies, diabetes, etc.  These conditions should be reported to the Staff at RDA prior to attending any session and/ or tryouts being run or hosted by RDA.

 

Full and complete disclosure of all preexisting medical and non-medical conditions is the absolute responsibility of the trainees and their legal guardians where applicable. RDA can and will disqualify any applicant that refuses to divulge these conditions and may apply a financial penalty for the trainee’s failure to do so.

 

The financial penalty will be at the discretion of the Staff at RDA and will be based on costs and fines associated with the trainee’s failure to disclose any preexisting medical and non-medical conditions that bring the reputation of RDA into disrepute.

Failure to provide the requested Medical Certificate will disqualify me from participation in any RDA sessions until such certificate is presented accordingly.                                                                    

 

In further consideration of being permitted to participate in classes, workshops, and therapies, I knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waive any claim I may have against RDA for injury or damages that I may sustain as a result of participating in this program.
