Release of Liability/Acknowledgment of Risk
In consideration of your child being allowed to participate as a player in any Northeast Generals activity, the undersigned acknowledges and agrees that: (1) The participation in or observation of ice skating, ice hockey and dry land sporting activities have inherent physical risks that may result in serious injury including permanent paralysis or death. (2) I knowingly and freely assume all such risks, both known and unknown, and assume full responsibility for my child’s participation. (3) I understand and agree that neither the Program nor any of its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, coaches, referees, ice rink or employees of the ice rink used by the Program shall be responsible or held liable for any accidents, injury (including paralysis and/or death), loss of equipment or any other costs, expenses, damages, or losses in connection with such participation. (4) The player and their family are responsible for any and all medical costs for any injuries arising from or around the Program activities. (5) I hereby represent to the Program that my son or daughter has no known medical condition that restricts or prohibits participation in ice hockey, ice-skating or any related activity, nor does the player have any known medical condition which puts him or her at greater risk of injury or death resulting from any risks associated with participating in Program activities, whether such risks are known or unknown to parent or player. (6) In the event of injury or illness, I give permission for the Program or its designee to provide, or make arrangements for the provisions of, emergency first aid. (7) The Program reserves the right to terminate the player's participation in activities based upon inappropriate behavior by the player or parent without refund. The player is expected to act in a mature and responsible manner at all times. Any behavior that the Program deems an endangerment to the safety of other persons or property, or that jeopardizes the Program’s ability to conduct its business, will result in the player's immediate expulsion. The player may also be expelled from participation in Program activities for financial delinquency, failure to abide by all Program and ice rink rules and directives and/or falsification of registration information.
