Disclaimer, Assumption of Risk and Waiver and Consent Agreements

I warrant and acknowledge that I am the parent or legal guardian of the player named on the reverse side of this application, a minor (“Player”) and that I am authorized on behalf of myself, Player and our heirs, assigns and next of kin, to hereby enter into the following agreements IN CONSIDERATION OF Player’s being able to participate in any way at practices, games or other activities (“EVENTS”) sanctioned by the American Youth Soccer Organization (“AYSO”).

DISCLAIMER, ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND WAIVER: I acknowledge that participation in soccer necessarily involves travel, play in adverse field conditions, contact with considerable force, and risk of severe, permanent physical injury including bruises, scrapes, strained, sprained or torn muscles, tendons or ligaments, broken bones, dislocation of joints, concussion, brain damage, nerve and spinal cord injury, paralysis and death. I WILLINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY ASSUME ALL SUCH RISKS. I willingly and voluntarily agree to comply with the stated and customary terms and conditions for participation and, if Player or I observe any concern in Player's readiness for participation in the EVENTS, I will remove him/her from participation and bring such concern to the attention of the nearest official immediately and also of the Regional Commissioner as soon as possible thereafter.

I HEREBY RELEASE, DISCHARGE AND AGREE TO HOLD HARMLESS, to the fullest extent permitted by law, AYSO, its players, employees, volunteers, officials, sponsors and other representatives and any and all owners, lessors, lessees or other persons or entities allowing, permitting or authorizing the use of facilities by AYSO and the agents, employees, officers and directors of said persons or entities (“RELEASEES”) from any and all claims, demands, costs, expenses and compensation arising out of or in any way related to an injury or other damage that may result to said participant or to members of my family or my household or individuals I invite or for whom I am otherwise responsible while participating in or present at any of the EVENTS, WHETHER ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE RELEASEES OR OTHERWISE. I further acknowledge that AYSO is primarily administered by volunteers rather than paid professionals.

I further acknowledge and accept that this Disclaimer, Assumption of Risk and Waiver is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the laws of the state in which we live and agree that if any portion of this Disclaimer, Assumption of Risk and Waiver is deemed to be invalid, the remainder will continue in full legal force and effect.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND CONSENT: I understand the terms of the Soccer Accident Insurance Plan are set forth in a pamphlet available from the Safety Director of my region or on-line at http:// www.ayso.org/resources/insurance/insurance_forms.aspx, as the same may be amended from time to time, and either I have read and understand the terms or I will do so before permitting Player to participate.

I further acknowledge that I have received the AYSO/CDC Parent/Athlete Concussion Information Sheet (also available online at http://www.ayso.org/resources/safety.aspx) which contains information related to a) signs and symptoms of a concussion; b) danger signs associated with a concussion; c) why athletes should report symptoms related to a concussion; and d) what should be done if a concussion is suspected. I agree to review the Parent/Athlete Concussion Information Sheet with my child (Player) and return a signed copy as indicated on the form to my child’s coach on my child’s first day of practice.

For both internal and external use, I acknowledge that AYSO may compile and use addresses and soccer photographs of Player consistent with the AYSO Privacy Policy set forth at http:// www.ayso.org/resources/legal/privacy_policy.aspx, as the same may be amended from time to time. I consent to such uses and hereby waive all rights to approval and compensation.

On behalf of my child (Player), myself and all members of my child’s family, I hereby agree to abide by the AYSO Bylaws, rules, regulations, policies and philosophies as available at http:// www.ayso.org/resources/governing_documents.aspx, and all decisions and directions of the Regional Board, Area and Section staff, and the National Board of Directors, and I understand that the Player or any member of the Player’s family may be removed from the program at any time with or without cause. I further agree that the Player has not been convicted of any crime as a minor nor does the Player have any known condition that might pose undue risk to other participants.

(Please signify your agreement with the foregoing by signing in the space indicated on the reverse side of this form.)
