Pond Sessions – Waiver and Release of Liability

By registering for and participating in Pond Sessions programs, I acknowledge and agree to the following:

I understand that participation in hockey training and related activities involves inherent risks, including but not limited to falls, collisions, contact with other participants, sticks, pucks, boards, and other equipment, which may result in serious injury, permanent disability, or death. I voluntarily assume all such risks on behalf of myself and/or the participant.

I confirm that the participant is physically fit and able to safely participate in all activities associated with the program. I agree to inform Pond Sessions of any medical conditions, injuries, or limitations that may affect participation.

In consideration of being permitted to participate, I hereby release, waive, and discharge Pond Sessions, its owners, directors, coaches, instructors, employees, contractors, and affiliates from any and all liability for any injury, loss, or damage arising out of or related to participation in the program, whether caused by negligence or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

I agree to indemnify and hold harmless Pond Sessions and its representatives from any claims, demands, or actions brought by or on behalf of the participant arising from participation in the program.

I understand that Pond Sessions reserves the right to remove any participant from a session if it is deemed necessary for safety or behavioral reasons.

In the event of an emergency, I authorize Pond Sessions to secure medical treatment for the participant as deemed necessary, and I agree to be responsible for any associated costs.

I acknowledge that photographs and video recordings may be taken during sessions and grant permission for these to be used for promotional and marketing purposes without compensation.

I confirm that I have read and understand this waiver and release of liability, and I agree to its terms freely and voluntarily. If I am registering on behalf of a minor, I certify that I am the parent or legal guardian and have the authority to agree to these terms on their behalf.
