Vancouver All Star Cheer Waiver Form

 

Dear Parent/Guardian:

 

In regards to my child(ren) participating in the Vancouver All Stars cheerleading program(s), I waive any and all claims I may have against and release all liability and agree not to sue Vancouver All Stars, Elizabeth  Gigante Ulrich, Vancouver All Stars employees, agents or volunteers for any personal injury, death, property damage or loss sustained as a result of my child’s participation in the program, arising out of any cause whatsoever.

 

I am aware of the usual risks and dangers inherent in participation in all of the activities associated with the Vancouver All Stars Cheer Program and the possibility of injury, death, property damage or loss resulting from the activities.                                                                   

 

It is my responsibility to ensure that my child is wearing suitable clothing during participation in all activities associated with the program: team t-shirts, shorts and cheer shoes for practices and uniform and other items deemed necessary by the coaches.  This includes braces and/or athletic equipment that an athlete may be required to wear in order to participate.                                        

 

My child and I have read and understand the Vancouver All Star policies that apply at all times and are in place as safety protection measures.  I understand that I must report any and all injuries to my Coach(es) no matter how insignificant they may appear and/or whether or not they were a result of participation with VAS.          

 

Accidents can be a result of the nature of the activity and can occur with or without any fault on either part of the athlete or Vancouver All Stars, its employees, agents or the facility where the activity is taking place.  By allowing your daughter/son to participate, you are accepting the risk of an accident occurring and agree that the activities carried out in the course of a cheerleading club are suitable for your child.                                                                        

In signing this Consent and Waiver, I am not relying on any oral or written representation or statements made by Vancouver All Stars, its servants, agents, employees or authorized volunteers to induce me to permit my child to take part, other than set out in the Consent and Waiver.                                                                        

 

I am 19 years of age or older and have read and understood the terms of this Consent and Waiver and understand that it is binding upon me, my heirs, executors and administrators.
