COVID Waiver

Assumption of the Risk and Waiver of Liability Relating to Coronavirus/COVID-19

The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health

Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-

person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies

recommend social distancing and have, in many locations, prohibited the congregation of groups of

people.

Willows Jiu Jitsu & MMA (“the Gym”) cannot guarantee that you or your child(ren) will not become

infected with COVID-19. Further, attending the Gym could increase your risk and your child(ren)’s

risk of contracting COVID-19.

By signing this agreement, I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily

assume the risk that my child(ren) and I may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by attending

the Gym and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent

disability, and death. I understand that the risk of becoming exposed to or infected by COVID-19 at

the Gym may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of myself and others, including, but

not limited to, Gym employees, volunteers, and program participants and their families.

I voluntarily agree to assume all of the foregoing risks and accept sole responsibility for any injury to

my child(ren) or myself (including, but not limited to, personal injury, disability, and death), illness,

damage, loss, claim, liability, or expense, of any kind, that I or my child(ren) may experience or incur

in connection with my child(ren)’s attendance at the Gym or participation in Gym programming

(“Claims”). On my behalf, and on behalf of my children, I hereby release, covenant not to sue,

discharge, and hold harmless the Gym, its owners, employees, agents, and representatives, of and

from the Claims, including all liabilities, claims, actions, damages, costs or expenses of any kind

arising out of or relating thereto. I understand and agree that this release includes any Claims based

on the actions, omissions, or negligence of the Gym, its employees, agents, and representatives,

whether a COVID-19 infection occurs before, during, or after participation in any Gym program.
