Event Participants and those Attending
Requirements and the 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, including
individuals without disease symptoms. As a result, federal, state, local
governments and health agencies recommend wearing masks and proactive
social distancing.
The health and well-being of our staff,
athletes and those attending our events remains our top priority. In
order to minimize the risk of COVID-19 entering our environment and
spreading among our community, we will only allow staff assigned to work
the event, athletes and coaches scheduled to compete in the event and
valid event pass holders. Depending on event capacity restrictions,
event attendance may be restricted.
Game Point Events, (hereafter
referred to as the “Event”) has put in place numerous preventative
measures and enhanced cleaning protocols to reduce the likelihood of
spreading COVID-19 in the event facility; however, the Event cannot
guarantee that you or your child(ren) will not become infected with
COVID-19. Further, attending sponsored activities at the Event could
increase your risk and your child(ren)’s risk of contracting COVID-19.
