I, the undersigned parent(s) or guardian(s), hereby consent to my child participating in the athletic programs and activities of Answers Academy (the “School”), including but not limited to volleyball, cross country, and basketball sports activity programs provided by the School during the 2024-2025 school year (collectively, the “Program”). I understand that the Program activities will include the following: athletic training and competitions in association with the School’s Program and with events and competitions of other private schools, public schools, or home school associations, and transportation to and from practice or athletic events. I certify that my child is willing and is physically, mentally, and emotionally able to participate in such Program events and activities. I UNDERSTAND AND HEREBY AGREE TO ASSUME ALL OF THE RISKS THAT MAY BE ENCOUNTERED DURING THE PROGRAM ACTIVITIES OR TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM THE EVENTS. I do, for myself and for my child, heirs, and assigns, to the fullest extent permitted by law, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release, acquit, forever discharge, and agree to indemnify and hold harmless Answers Academy and its parent company, Answers in Genesis, their respective directors, officers, teachers, administrators, representatives, agents, employees, and volunteers from any and all liability, actions, causes of actions, claims, expenses, obligations, and damages of any nature whatsoever, which I now have or which may arise in the future, in connection with my child's participation in the described activities or in any other associated activities including, but not limited to, any injury to my child or property, even injury resulting in death.
Please see HERE for the Concussion Flyer and HERE for the Sudden Cardiac Arrest Flyer. I affirm that I have received and read the fact sheets on Concussion and Sudden Cardiac Arrest to understand warning signs and action in case of an incident.
I expressly agree that this release, waiver, and indemnity agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and that if any portion hereof is held invalid, it is agreed that the balance shall, notwithstanding, continue in full legal force and effect.
Understanding that my child may need treatment during athletic programs at Answers Academy and other event locations, I hereby authorize the School to administer such first aid as deemed best under the circumstances, and I consent for my child to receive such treatment. I understand that the School will attempt to notify me in the event of an emergency requiring immediate medical care for my child and if the school is unable to notify me, it will have my child treated by a duly qualified physician at the nearest hospital or emergency center. Any medical information provided to the school may be shared with emergency medical personnel. I acknowledge that it is my responsibility to keep my child’s records current to reflect any significant changes, in writing, as they occur, e.g. telephone numbers, work location, emergency contacts, child’s physician and health status, and immunization records.
I further state that I HAVE CAREFULLY READ AND UNDERSTAND THE FOREGOING RELEASE AND KNOW THE CONTENTS HEREOF AND I SIGN THIS RELEASE AS MY OWN FREE ACT. I understand that this is a legally binding agreement.
