Relationship to Minor:

1. ASSUMPTION OF RISK

I understand and acknowledge that participation in boxing, fitness training, sparring, striking drills, partner drills, conditioning, and use of gym equipment involves inherent and significant risks.

These risks include, but are not limited to, cuts, bruises, sprains, strains, broken bones, joint injuries, eye injuries, dental injuries, neck injuries, head injuries, concussions, brain trauma, serious injury, permanent disability, or death.

I understand that boxing is a contact sport and that physical contact, including strikes, may be part of training. I acknowledge that injuries may occur even when safety rules and coaching instructions are followed.

I voluntarily accept these risks for myself, or on behalf of the minor participant if I am signing as a parent or legal guardian.

2. RELEASE & LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, I release Coliseu Boxing Club, its owners, coaches, staff, representatives, volunteers, and affiliates from claims arising out of the inherent risks of participation in boxing, fitness training, sparring, conditioning, contact drills, equipment use, and related activities.

I understand that this agreement does not release liability for gross negligence, reckless conduct, intentional harm, or any liability that cannot legally be waived.

3. MEDICAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT & EMERGENCY CONSENT

I certify that I, or the minor participant if applicable, am physically able to participate in strenuous physical activity.

I understand it is my responsibility to consult with a physician before participating if I have any medical condition, injury, concern, or limitation that may affect my ability to safely participate.

I agree to notify Coliseu Boxing Club staff of any medical condition, injury, or limitation that may affect safe participation.

In the event of an emergency, I authorize Coliseu Boxing Club to seek emergency medical treatment for me, or for the minor participant if I am signing as a parent or legal guardian.

I accept full responsibility for any medical expenses incurred.

4. CONCUSSION & HEAD INJURY ACKNOWLEDGMENT

I understand that participation in boxing, sparring, and related training activities involves a risk of head injury, including concussions.

I understand that repeated head impacts may result in serious and long-term health effects, including brain injury.

I understand that signs of a concussion may include, but are not limited to, headache or pressure in the head, dizziness, balance problems, nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, sensitivity to light or noise, confusion, difficulty concentrating, memory problems, mood changes, unusual behavior, or drowsiness.

I agree to immediately report any symptoms of a concussion or head injury to a coach or staff member.

I understand that continuing to train while experiencing symptoms increases the risk of serious injury.

I understand that if a concussion or head injury is suspected, Coliseu Boxing Club may remove me, or the minor participant if applicable, from training immediately.

I agree not to return to training until medically cleared if Coliseu Boxing Club staff, a medical professional, or applicable law requires medical clearance.

I understand that Coliseu Boxing Club is not responsible for diagnosing or treating medical conditions. I accept full responsibility for seeking medical evaluation and care.

5. CONTACT TRAINING & SPARRING CONSENT

I understand that boxing training may involve controlled physical contact, partner drills, striking drills, defensive drills, and supervised training activities.

I understand that sparring is optional and involves a higher risk of injury, including head injuries and concussions.

By signing this agreement, I consent for myself, or for the minor participant if I am signing as parent or legal guardian, to participate in supervised contact training and sparring when approved by Coliseu Boxing Club staff.

I understand that no participant is required to spar. I may stop participating at any time, and Coliseu Boxing Club staff may stop or deny sparring at any time for safety, behavior, readiness, or any other reason.
