In consideration of the opportunity to participate in the Event, I, the undersigned participant, acknowledge and agree that:

1. ASSUMPTION OF RISK. Participation in or attendance at the Event involves inherent risks and dangers of accidents, personal and bodily injury (including death) and property loss or damage. These may result from my own actions or inactions, as well as the actions or inactions of others, the rules of play, and the condition of the facilities and equipment. Further, there may be other risks not known to me and not reasonably foreseeable at this time. I have considered the nature and extent of the risks involved, and I voluntarily choose to assume all such risks, both known and unknown, even those risks that result from the negligence of the Released Parties (defined below) or others and assume full responsibility for my participation in the Event. I consent to treatment in the event of an emergency or other incident in which, in the reasonable judgment of the on-site personnel, I require medical care. I further agree to pay all costs associated with such medical care and to indemnify and hold harmless the Released Parties from any costs or claims arising from such medical care.

I shall have no right of approval and no legal claim arising out of any use or editing of the Recording or my name. EDGE ATHLETICS shall have no obligation to use any of the rights I grant. I represent that it is not necessary for EDGE ATHLETICS to obtain permission from or to pay any third party in connection with the rights granted in this paragraph.
