IN CONSIDERATION of being permitted to participate in the Event, I, for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators, successors, assigns, insurers and estate:
1. HEREBY CONFIRM THAT I AM 18 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER. I UNDERSTAND, HAVE CONSIDERED AND EVALUATED THE NATURE, SCOPE AND EXTENT OF THE RISKS INVOLVED AND I VOLUNTARILY AND FREELY CHOOSE TO ASSUME ALL RISKS OF PARTICIPATING IN THE EVENT. I acknowledge that the game of hockey and the other portions of the Event are inherently dangerous, and my participation and attendance at the Event is a potentially hazardous activity, which involves certain risks and danger of accidents, serious bodily injury (including, but not limited to, permanent disability, paralysis, and death), and property loss or damage either specifically as a result of me being a Participant or generally in connection with my attendance at the Event;
2. acknowledge and agree that it is my responsibility to determine whether I am sufficiently physically fit and active enough to safely participate in the Event. I represent and warrant that I am, or will be at the time of the Event, in sufficient health and physical condition to participate in the Event, which I am freely electing to participate in. I certify that I have not been advised against my participation in the Event by any healthcare provider, nor am I aware of any medical condition – whether physical or otherwise – that would endanger myself or others, including other Participants, if I participated in the Event. I acknowledge that I alone, am solely responsible for my health and safety, and any personal property that I bring with me to the Event;
a. ( ) I am fully and personally responsible for my own safety and actions while and during my participation
b. ( ) With full knowledge of the risks involved, I hereby release, waive, discharge the Organization, its board, officers, directors, independent contractors, affiliates, employees, representatives, successors, and assigns from any and all liabilities, claims, demands, actions, and causes of action whatsoever, directly or indirectly arising out of or related to any loss, damage, injury or death, that may be sustained by me while participating in the Event during all associated activities while in, on, or around the premises or while using the facilities that may lead to injury or illness
c. ( ) I agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Organization from and against any and all costs, expenses, damages, lawsuits, and/or liabilities or claims arising whether directly or indirectly from or related to any and all claims made by or against any of the released parties due to injury, loss or death
3. accept responsibility for the condition and adequacy of any equipment I use to participate in the Event. I agree that, at all times when I am on the ice, I shall wear a hockey helmet approved by the CSA (Canadian Standards Association);
4. agree that if I believe or become aware that any facilities to be used in connection with the Event are unsafe, I will immediately advise Baycrest Foundation (the “Event Organizer”);
5. understand and acknowledge the dangers associated with the consumption of alcohol and/or drugs before, during and after the Event and I recognize that any such consumption may impair my judgment and motor skills. Without limiting the effect of any other provision of this Release and Waiver, I assume responsibility for any injury, loss or damage associated with my consumption of alcohol or drugs before, during or after the Event;
