In consideration of the acceptance of my application for membership in Team BSC (hereinafter ‘BSC’), I hereby freely and voluntarily agree to the following representations, waivers, and agreements. I know and understand that BSC is a Multi-Sport Club and that the sports of running/walking, biking, and swimming are action sports each of which independently, or in any combination with other sports carry significant risks of serious personal injury, death, and property damage. I also know that while participating in and/or training for these sports, I am exposed to many natural, mechanical, and environmental conditions and risks which independently or in combination with my activities or the activities of others may cause property damage or bodily injury including severe or fatal injuries to myself or others.

I agree that I alone am responsible for: (a) my proper preparation and safety while participating in any organized BSC race, training session, event or other club or team related activity; (b) providing, utilizing and maintaining the equipment necessary for the safe enjoyment of my participation in any such club or team event; (c) and wearing a properly functioning SNELL or ANSI approved helmet while participating in any BSC event which includes bicycling. I also represent that I have no physical or medical condition, which to my knowledge would endanger others or myself, while I participate in these sports.

Being fully aware of the risks, conditions, and hazards associated with these sports, I HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE that BSC, its directors, founders, members, sponsors, agents and any other club or team affiliated individuals and/or entities are not in any way responsible for my safety while participating in any BSC organized race, training session, event or other club or team activity and I FURTHER AGREE TO WAIVE, RELEASE AND DISCHARGE for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators, legal representative, assignees and successors in interest (hereinafter collectively ‘successors’) any and all claims for damages for death, personal injury or property damage which I may have or which may hereafter accrue to me as a result of my participation in any BSC event, against any person or entity identified above, whether such injury or damage was the result of negligence or carelessness on the part of persons or entities mentioned above, and whether such injury or damage was foreseeable or not, including all such claims regarding the design or condition of any equipment utilized by me in such events without regard to whether such equipment is specified or recommended by such persons or entities identified above.

I further agree to forever HOLD HARMLESS and INDEMNIFY all persons and entities identified above, general, and specifically, from any and all liability for death, personal injury or property damage resulting in any way from my participating in BSC events. I also agree, for myself and successors, that the above representations are not mere recitals and are binding; and that should I or my successor assert any claim in contravention of this agreement, I or my successor shall be liable for the expenses (including legal fees) incurred by the other party or parties in defending against such a claim unless they are found liable for willful and wanton negligence. This document contains the entire agreement between the parties and if any term or provision of this agreement is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms and provisions of this agreement shall still remain binding and enforceable.

I acknowledge that I am 18 years of age or older and that I have read and understood the contents of this document.
