SPOTTING WAIVER DUE TO COVID-19 I am aware that while gymnastics and tumbling activities are individual sports, there will be times when incidental contact will occur. I acknowledge Pacific West Gymnastics has implemented several protocols and has taken specific measures to encourage social distancing throughout their various programs. While operating in a social and physical distancing environment, I recognize even with best efforts and intentions, there will be times the children will breach the prescribed (6’) distancing
recommendation. In addition, the teaching and coaching staff will spot (physically assist) when the circumstances require it. Spotting students and athletes is often necessary in order to teach skills safely, to help students and athletes perform skills correctly, and to prevent injury. I understand and agree that spotting will be part of the learning process at Pacific West Gymnastics and I agree to permit my child’s teacher and/or coach to physically assist my child when needed. Direct assistance will also be provided in the event of an injury. I HAVE HAD SUFFICIENT OPPORTUNITY TO READ THIS ENTRE DOCUMENT. I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND IT, AND I AGREE TO BE BOUND BY IT'S TERMS.
