I understand that all extra-curricular activities have a certain degree of risk, including known and unknown risks. I understand that many of these risks are essential to the activity and, therefore, cannot be eliminated. I understand that these risks include bodily injury ranging from minor sprains and contusions, to major injuries including concussion, spinal injuries, disfigurement, and injuries that may cause
paralysis, illness, disease or even death, as well as psychological injury. I understand an injury may impair the participant’s future ability to earn a living, to engage in business, social, and recreational activities, and to
generally enjoy life. I understand the following describes some but not all of the risks that may result in injury, death or property damage:
•Equipment failure
•Failure to properly maintain equipment
•Inadequate coach/instructor training or supervision
•Failure to give adequate warnings or instruction
•Failure by participants to follow instruction
(continued from above)
•Participant’s exceeding their skills or physical condition
•Vehicular accidents
•The participant’s own negligence and the negligence of others
•Dehydration, exhaustion, cramps, hypothermia and fatigue
•Collisions with other participants, equipment and other objects
•Collisions with the ground and floors

•Unavailability of immediate medical care
I understand that ASD/The Alliance for the Support of American Legion Baseball will not assume responsibility for injuries,
death and damages sustained in connection with the activities.
By submitting this, I acknowledge that the participant and I are
ULTIMATELY RESPONSIBLE for my/his/her own safety during
the participation in ASD activities, including the use of facilities and equipment.
I expressly agree and promise to accept and assume all the risks to myself and/or the participant associated with the ASD activity.
I understand that primary accident insurance coverage is my responsibility. If the participant is a non-ASD alternative education program/home school student, I further understand that ASD secondary accident insurance will not cover the participant.
I give my consent to emergency treatment, hospitalization, or other medical treatment as may be necessary by emergency medical personnel, hospitals, physicians and other medical providers, in the event of an injury or illness.
I authorize the school to transport the participant to and from ASD activities via ASD approved transportation. I accept the responsibility to pay the cost of transportation should the participant be sent home early from an out-of-town event as a result of their behavior.
I HEREBY VOLUNTARILY RELEASE, FOREVER DISCHARGE, AND AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE ASD/THE ALLIANCE FOR THE SUPPORT OF AMERICAN LEGION BASEBALL IN ALASKA FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, OR CAUSES OF ACTION, WHICH ARE IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH PARTICIPATION IN THESE ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING ANY SUCH CLAIMS WHICH ALLEGE NEGLIGENT ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF ASD. I ACCEPT SOLE FINANCIAL AND LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE NAMED STUDENT IN THE EVENT OF INJURY OR ILLNESS AND AGREE TO INDEMNIFY FOR ANY INJURIES TO MY CHILD ARISING OUT OF THE ASD ACTIVITY. I ACCEPT SOLE FINANCIAL AND LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE NAMED STUDENT FOR PROPERTY DAMAGE, LOST EQUIPMENT, AND/OR DISCIPLINARY SANCTIONS.
By submitting this document, I acknowledge that if anyone is hurt or killed or property is damaged during the participant’s participation in the ASD activity, I may be found by a court of law to have waived my right to maintain a lawsuit against ASD/The Alliance for the Support of American Legion Baseball in Alaska on the basis of any claim from which I have released them herein.
