Parent/Guardian Understanding

I understand participating in sports can be an extremely valuable experience for young people. The Scholars Academy Athletics Program makes every attempt to recruit experienced, skilled and motivated volunteer coaches and supply our athletes with appropriate equipment. However, athletes are exposed to moving objects, stationary objects, various playing surfaces, transportation and other items that can cause injury and/or death. This communication is being written so you and your athlete can understand that there are potential risks/dangers involved in participation in athletics. By signing this form, I hereby release the Athletic Director, School Director, Associate Director or Coach from any and all liability for injury and/or damages which may occur.
