These risks and dangers may be caused by the negligence of the participant or the negligence of others, including 'releasees' identified below. These risks and dangers include, but are not limited to, those arising from participating with bigger, faster and stronger participants, and these risks and dangers will increase if participant participates in inline hockey and member team activities in an age group above that which participant would normally participate in. I/We further acknowledge that there may be risks and dangers not known to us or not reasonably foreseeable at this time. Participant (and participant's parent(s)/guardian(s), if applicable) acknowledge, understand and agree that all of the risks and dangers described throughout this agreement, including those caused by negligence of participant and/or others, are included within the waiver, release and relinquishment described in the proceeding paragraph.

If the law in any controlling jurisdiction renders any part of this agreement unenforceable, the remainder of this agreement shall nevertheless remain enforceable to the full extent, if any, allowed by controlling law.

Significant exclusions may apply to USA ROLLER HOCKEY's insurance policies, which could affect any coverage. For example, there is no liability coverage for claims of one player against another player. If you have any questions, contact USA ROLLER HOCKEY.
