SEATTLE SQUASH RACQUETS ASSOCIATION
2026-2027 WINTER SQUASH LEAGUE
MINORS’ (13 – 18 YEARS OLD) LIABILITY WAIVER AND RELEASE, ASSUMPTION OF RISKS, INDEMNITY AND AGREEMENT NOT TO SUE
I, the undersigned, hereby express my desire and approval for my child(ren)’s participation in the SEATTLE SQUASH RACQUETS ASSOCIATION (SSRA) 2026 – 2027 Winter Squash League, hereafter “the League”. I acknowledge that such participation will include, without limitation, participation in squash matches against adults and other minors, and involve traveling to and utilizing the squash courts at various athletic facilities in the greater Seattle area. I assume all responsibility for my child(ren) in connection with their participation in League, including but not limited to their transportation to and from League matches and events, and agree to accompany and supervise my Minor Child(ren) aged 13 to 16 (as of January 1, 2026) at all times during their participation in League.
I FULLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE that I further acknowledge that participation in the League is voluntary and involve risks and dangers of serious bodily injury, including permanent disability, paralysis and death, which may be caused by my child(ren)’s own actions or inactions and/or the actions and inactions of others participating in League, or during transportation to or from a League match or event, including but not limited to the fault or negligence of the SSRA.
I ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE NOT TO SUE or make any claim(s) against the SSRA or any of its past, present or future board members, officers, agents, sponsors or representatives (“Released Parties”, hereinafter “Releasees”) for any losses, costs, expenses, injuries, damages, whether known or foreseeable, resulting or arising in any way from my child(ren)’s participation in League.
I AGREE to RELEASE, HOLD HARMLESS, and INDEMNIFY the SSRA/Released Parties from all claims of any nature brought against the SSRA by any person or entity, or by or on behalf of my minor child(ren), arising out of my Minor child(ren)’s participation in League, including but not limited to any claims for medical expenses, costs, attorneys fees or any other expenses or economic liabilities.
I FURTHER AGREE TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS the SSRA/Released Parties from any and all claims whatsoever brought by or against my Minor child(ren) and all claims whatsoever brought by any third party arising out of or in connection with my Minor child(ren)’s participation in the League, including all costs and attorneys’ fees to defend such claims or actions.
I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS DOCUMENT and have the authority to execute it as the parent or guardian on behalf of the Minor child(ren) named on this form. I understand that I am releasing certain legal rights that I and/or my minor child(ren) otherwise may have, and which will legally prevent me, or any other person, from filing suit or making any other claims for damages on behalf of my child(ren), including in the event of personal injury, death and/or property damage. I freely and voluntarily enter into this agreement, and verify that I have made no misrepresentations herein regarding my name, age or any other information.
I UNDERSTAND, ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE that this document is a legally binding release of liability and agreement not to sue governed by the laws of the State of Washington and is binding as to any other person, including all family members, heirs, and executors. This document shall be interpreted to provide as broad and inclusive a RELEASE OF LIABILITY as is legally permissible, but it is not intended to assert any claims or defenses that are prohibited by law. I agree that exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any legal action involving parties or issues relating to or arising out of participation in the Program, and/or this agreement, against the Releasees, shall be in the courts of King County, Washington, and such courts shall have personal jurisdiction.
This LIABILITY WAIVER AND RELEASE and all its terms shall survive and continue in force beyond the termination of the current League season with respect to any liability, injury, cost, expense or damage occurring prior to such termination. If any part of this agreement is determined to be unenforceable, all other parts shall still be given full force and effect.
