In consideration of my minor child listed below, being permitted to play amateur baseball for a NEO Roy Hobbs Baseball, Inc. (“NEORH”) team, the undersigned acknowledges and agrees that:

NEORH is not responsible for the care and supervision of my minor child while participating in NEORH, whether at designated sites under the control of NEORH or elsewhere.

NEORH has adopted the mandatory rules issued by the Ohio Department of Health regrading participation in amateur baseball. These mandatory rules are attached hereto and made a part hereof. I agree that I will comply with all mandatory rules issued by the Ohio Department of Health, and any amendments thereto during my participation in NEORH baseball as a player.

I acknowledge and understand that the participation in the game of baseball can result in the risk of injury, including permanent disability and death, and severe social and economic losses that might result not only from my minor child’s actions, inactions or negligence of others, the rules of play, or the condition of the premises or of any equipment used, are inherent in my participating in the game of baseball, and, having full knowledge of such risk, I voluntarily, on behalf of my minor child, assume them of my own accord. I further acknowledge that my minor child may be exposed to an infectious disease, viral infection and/or bacterial infection while participating in NEORH, and I am aware of the contagious nature of potential exposure to an infectious disease, viral infection and/or bacterial infection while participating in NEORH. I, on behalf of my minor child voluntarily assume the risk that my minor child may be exposed to or infected by an infectious disease, viral infection and/or bacterial infection while participating in NEORH, and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death. I further understand that the risk of becoming injured and/or exposed to or infected by an infectious disease, viral infection and/or bacterial infection while participating in NEORH may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of my minor child and others, including, but not limited to NEORH employees, volunteers, and program participants and their families. Further, I understand there may be other risks not known to us or not reasonably foreseeable at this time. NEORH is not responsible for the health and wellbeing of my minor child while participating in NEORH, whether at designated sites under the control of NEORH or elsewhere. I, on behalf of my heirs, assigns, personal representatives, and next of kin, hereby release and hold NEORH harmless, along with its officers, trustees, officials, agents, and/or employees, its sponsors, field owners and other participants and their families with respect to any and all injury, disability, death, loss, or damages to person or property as a result of my minor child’s participation in NEORH at designated sites under the control of NEORH or elsewhere. Participation in the game of baseball can result in physical injuries. I understand that the risk of injury, including serious injury, death and disability, does exist.

The undersigned, knowingly and freely assumes all such risks, both known and unknown, and assumes full responsibility for the participation of the minor child noted above.

The undersigned, on his or her behalf, on behalf of the minor child noted above, and behalf of all heirs, assigns, personal representatives, and next of kin, hereby releases and holds harmless NEORH, its officers, trustees, officials, agents, and/or employees, its sponsors, field owners and other participants and their families with respect to any and all injury, illness, disability, death, loss, or damages to person or property as a result of my minor child’s participation in NEORH, whether playing, practicing, travelling to or from events or participating in any other activity while participating in NEORH.

The undersigned, on his or her behalf, on behalf of the minor child noted above, and behalf of all heirs, assigns, personal representatives, and next of kin covenant not to sue or bring any claim, demand or cause of action which is in any way connected to my minor child’s participation in NEORH as a result of negligent acts or omissions of NEORH whether playing, practicing, travelling to or from events or participating in any other activity while participating in NEORH.

I understand that should NEORH incur any attorneys fees and/or costs related to any claim made with regard to the participation of my minor child in NEORH, or to enforce this agreement, I agree to indemnify NEORH for such fees and costs and hold NEORH harmless therefrom.

I HAVE READ THIS RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK AGREEMENT, FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS AND SIGN IT FREELY AND VOLUNTARILY WITHOUT ANY INDUCEMENT OR ASSURANCE OF ANY NATURE AND INTEND IT TO BE A COMPLETE AND UNCONDITIONAL RELEASE OF ALL LIABILITY TO THE GREATEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW.
