DARKHORSE WRESTLING takes member privacy very seriously. Our guiding principal is that your contact information is and should remain private. Coaches, administrative staff, and appointed representatives of DARKHORSE WRESTLING, if any, determine which information is to be displayed via public and social media services or distributed through email, and which members they choose to exchange information with based upon content and relevance. Any information collected from our members will be used exclusively to conduct DARKHORSE WRESTLING club business and provide proscribed services. DARKHORSE WRESTLING does not sell or distribute information to third parties. Members can, at any time, modify their preferred contact methods via their TeamSnap account. Media, information, and/or images may, from time to time, be used to promote DARKHORSE WRESTLING using web or social media services. All images and information used will be either obtained through club activities (tournaments, practice, etc) OR will be used with the express permission of the wrestler/parent or guardian if images/media do not derive directly from DARKHORSE WRESTLING activities or services.

I have read and understand the registration information contained within this document and attest to the accuracy of all information provided. I understand the dues and fee structure and agree to pay the proscribed amounts based upon my selected registration type by the 5th day of each month. I understand the participation of my wrestler, either in practices or tournaments, is dependent upon ensuring obligations are met in terms of registration and tuition and I will contact a staff member immediately if I am unable to meet any or all requirements. I also understand that any exceptions to the policies outlined within this document will be solely at the discretion of DARKHORSE WRESTLING.

IN CONSIDERATION of my minor child (the “Minor”) being permitted to participate in the sport of wrestling (the “Sport”) with Darkhorse Wrestling, a North Carolina non‐profit corporation (“Darkhorse”) and/or entering any portion of the wrestling facilities of Darkhorse (the “Facilities”), I represent and warrant and agree, for myself and on behalf of the Minor, the following:

1. I know the nature of the Sport and the Minor’s experience and capabilities, and believe the Minor to be qualified to participate in the Sport. I have inspected the Facilities, and have had the opportunity to question the staff and management of Darkhorse about the Facilities and Darkhorse’s program. I have instructed the Minor that if he or she ever observes or suspects any condition or conduct that he believes to be unsafe, inappropriate or potentially harmful to the Minor or to others, he or she is to immediately leave the facility and refuse to participate further in wrestling activities. I will immediately report to Darkhorse management any such condition or conduct known to or suspected by me.

2. I am aware that the Sport requires both physical and mental stamina and strength. I believe, and I represent to Darkhorse, that the Minor is physically and mentally fit to participate in the Sport. I understand and I have instructed the Minor that: (a) the Sport is dangerous and participation in the Sport and/or entry into the Facilities involves RISKS OF SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, INCLUDING PERMANENT DISABILITY, PARALYSIS AND DEATH (collectively, the “Risks”); (b) the Risks may arise out of the nature of the Sport itself, or out of the Minor’s own actions or inactions, the actions or inactions of others, the condition and layout of the Facilities and equipment, or the negligence of the Releasees; (c) there may be other risks not known to me or that are not readily foreseeable at this time; (d) the social and economic losses and/or damages that could result from those Risk(s) could be severe and could permanently change the minor’s future.

3. I consent to the Minor’s participation in the Sport with Darkhorse, including, without limitation, any participation in or travel to tournaments, dual meets or other facilities with or on behalf of Darkhorse, and/or entry into the Facilities or the facilities of other wrestling organizations, and I HEREBY knowingly and voluntarily ACCEPT AND ASSUME ALL RISKS THEREOF, KNOWN or UNKNOWN, and assume all responsibility for any loss, cost, damage or injury that may result from or arise out Minor’s participation in the Sport with Darkhorse, EVEN IF CAUSED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF one or more of the RELEASEES.

4. For myself and on behalf of the Minor, I HEREBY WAIVE, RELEASE, AND DISCHARGE ANY CLAIMS, DEMANDS, LIABILITIES, ACTIONS OR CAUSES OF ACTION OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER AGAINST DARKHORSE, its directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents, attorneys or invitees (collectively, the “Releasees”) arising out of or in any way related to Minor’s participation in the Sport or in Darkhorse’s programs or the use of the Facilities, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO CLAIMS FOR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO BY THE ACTS, OMISSIONS OR NEGLIGENCE OF MINOR, OF THIRD PARTIES, OF THE RELEASEES OR OTHERWISE.

5. I also AGREE TO INDEMNIFY, HOLD HARMLESS AND DEFEND THE RELEASEES from and against any claims, demands, actions, causes of action, loss or expense, including without limitation their reasonable attorney fees, arising out of or in any way related to Minor’s participation in the Sport or in Darkhorse’s programs or the use of the Facilities, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO CLAIMS FOR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO BY THE ACTS, OMISSIONS OR NEGLIGENCE OF MINOR, OF THIRD PARTIES OR OF THE RELEASEES, whether such claims or demands be asserted by me, by Minor, by others on Minor’s behalf, by third parties or otherwise.

6. I consent to the use of Minor’s name, photographs, image and/or likeness by Darkhorse and its advertising or public relations agency for advertising, promotions, publicity releases and/or trade purposes in any and all media, including, without limitation, radio, television, print media, internet web sites and any other print, electronic and computer‐based media, without restriction as to frequency or duration of usage and without right of approval or claim for compensation or benefits by the undersigned or by Minor.

7. I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS PARENTAL CONSENT, RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY, ASSUMPTION OF RISK, INDEMNITY AGREEMENT AND IMAGE LICENSE, UNDERSTAND THAT BY SIGNING IT I GIVE UP SUBSTANTIAL RIGHTS I AND/OR THE MINOR MAY OTHERWISE HAVE AGAINST RELEASEES TO RECOVER DAMAGES FOR LOSSES OCCASIONED BY THE MINOR’S PARTICIPATION IN THE SPORT OR USE OF THE FACILITIES, AND SIGN IT VOLUNTARILY AND WITHOUT INDUCEMENT, ON MY OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF MINOR.
