SOUTH SOUND 3 ON 3 PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT, ASSUMPTION OF RISK, RELEASE OF ADULT

In consideration for permitting my child to participate in South Sound 3 on 3 basketball games, practices, camps, clinics, tournaments, and related activities (“Program Activities”), I agree as follows:

1. Parent or Legal Guardian Authority

I certify that I am the participant’s parent or legal guardian and have authority to enter into this agreement and authorize the participant’s involvement in Program Activities.

1. Acknowledgment and Assumption of Inherent Risks

I understand that basketball and related athletic activities involve inherent risks that cannot be completely eliminated, even when reasonable safety precautions are used. These risks include, but are not limited to:

• Running, jumping, pivoting, falling, and physical exertion;
• Contact or collisions with players, coaches, spectators, basketballs, equipment, walls, floors, or other objects;
• Sprains, strains, fractures, concussions, dental injuries, cuts, bruises, heat-related illness, cardiac events, and other serious injuries; and
• The actions or mistakes of the participant, other participants, officials, coaches, volunteers, or spectators.

I understand these risks and voluntarily authorize my child to participate. I agree to instruct my child to follow Program rules, facility rules, officials’ directions, and reasonable safety instructions.

1. Participant Health and Fitness

I certify that my child is physically able to participate, except for any medical condition, allergy, limitation, medication, or accommodation that I have disclosed during registration. I agree to notify South Sound 3 on 3 if this information changes.

I understand that South Sound 3 on 3 does not provide medical insurance for participants. I am responsible for determining whether my child has appropriate health and accident insurance and for expenses arising from my child’s participation, except where another party is legally responsible.

1. Emergency Medical Authorization

If I cannot be reached during an emergency, I authorize South Sound 3 on 3 personnel to obtain reasonable emergency evaluation, first aid, transportation, and medical treatment for my child. I understand that Program personnel are not medical professionals and that this authorization does not guarantee any particular treatment or outcome.

I accept financial responsibility for authorized emergency transportation and medical treatment, except to the extent another party is legally responsible. This authorization does not permit nonemergency treatment without my consent.

1. Release of Parent or Guardian’s Own Claims

To the fullest extent permitted by Washington law, I release and agree not to bring my own claims against South Sound 3 on 3, its owners, directors, employees, coaches, officials, volunteers, agents, sponsors, and participating facilities arising from the ordinary negligence of a released party in connection with my child’s participation in Program Activities.

This provision releases only claims that legally belong to me as the parent or guardian. It is not intended to waive any claim belonging to my child that Washington law does not permit a parent or guardian to waive. Nothing in this agreement releases gross negligence, reckless conduct, intentional misconduct, or any liability that cannot legally be released.

1. Rules and Conduct

I understand that South Sound 3 on 3 may remove a participant or spectator for unsafe behavior, fighting, abusive conduct, repeated rule violations, or conduct that significantly disrupts the Program. Any refund following removal will be determined under the published Refund Policy.

1. Severability and Washington Law

This agreement is governed by Washington law. If one provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.

1. Electronic Agreement

By checking the required agreement box and submitting registration, I confirm that:

• I have read and understand this agreement;
• I have had an opportunity to ask questions;
• I voluntarily authorize my child’s participation;
• I agree to the terms in my individual capacity as the participant’s parent or legal guardian; and
• My electronic acceptance is intended to serve as my signature.
