While particular rules, equipment and/or personal discipline may reduce the Risks, the Risks do exist, and I understand that these Risks may be caused in whole or in part by Minor's own actions or inactions, the actions or inactions of others participating in the Event, or the negligent acts or omissions of the Event Organizers (defined below). The risk of injury includes but is not limited to minor injuries such as bruises, cuts and scrapes and more serious injuries including sprains, strains, fractures, over-use syndrome, broken bones, dislocation of joints, muscle pulls and ligament/tendon damage.

4.

Such practices may include but are not limited to: (i) recognized social distancing practices; (ii) wearing a face mask; (iii) washing hands and/or using hand sanitizer frequently and avoiding touching of the face, and (iv) complying with other applicable laws, rules and regulations. I acknowledge that Minor’s compliance with these safety and mitigation practices is not only for Minor’s own benefit but also for the benefit of other Event participants and the Event Organizers. I further agree that I, on behalf of Minor, will neither attend nor participate in an Event if Minor has, in the past 10 days: (a) been tested for or have a suspected or confirmed case of COVID-19; (b) experienced any symptoms of Updated November 29, 2021 1/3 COVID-19 including, without limitation, fever, cough or shortness of breath; or (c) been exposed to or in close contact with a person known to have COVID-19 (or any known symptoms thereof).

I further agree that if, despite this Agreement, Minor, or anyone on Minor's behalf, makes a claim for Liability against any of the Event Organizers, I will indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Event Organizers from any such Liabilities which any may be incurred as the result of such claim.
