TEXAS HIGH SCHOOL BOWLING CLUB CONSENT AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY
2023-24
For and in consideration of my son/daughter’s participation on the High School Bowling Team, the undersigned parent/guardian agrees as follows:
1) I consent to my son/daughter’s participation in the High School Bowling Club.
​
2) I and my son/daughter assume any, and all risk known and unknown, associated with such activity including transportation to and from the events and practice.
​
3) I understand that my son/daughter’s participation on the High School Bowling Team involves the risk of injury to my son/daughter, whether caused by my son/daughter or something or someone else. In consideration for being allowed to participate in this activity, I and my son/daughter (Releasing Party) agree that the school district, its employees, coaches, and related organizations; the sponsoring bowling center and theTexas Bowling Centers Association; and all adult leaders (Released Parties) will not be liable for any injury, including, without limitation, bodily or emotional injury, loss, or damage of any kind to my son/daughter or myself. The Releasing Party releases the Released Parties of and from any and all liability from this activity resulting from the negligence, strict liability, or other fault of the Released Parties and covenant not to sue Released Parties in the event of any injury or loss in association with my son/daughter’s participation on the High School Bowling Team.
4) I authorize the designated person in authority to approve and authorize emergency medical treatment to my child in the absence of the parent/guardian should it become necessary.
5) I understand that my son/daughter, coaches, and all spectators will abide by all bowling centers’ policies. Policies may include the wearing of facemasks at all times to stop the spread of communicable diseases. Any medical waivers any THSBC or center’s policies must be provided in writing from a licensed medical physician.
6) I understand that the Texas High School Bowling Club (THSBC) requires that all students be academically eligible, according to UIL standards, to compete in Club competition. A school sponsor should be appointed by the school principal, who shall ensure that each student is academically eligible. If the school does not provide a sponsor for this task, then I authorize a designated person in authority to check my child’s grades to ensure that he/she is fully academically eligible.
7) I certify that my child lives with me or other legal guardian inside the school district attendance zone. I understand that falsification of this statement will result in team forfeiture of all team wins and that my child will be removed for the THSBC program with no refund of fees paid.
8) I understand that no alcoholic beverages may be consumed, nor tobacco be used at any practice, match, or other THSBC sponsored activity.
​
9) I hereby grant THSBC, or its affiliated organizations permission to publish images, videos, and the name of my child on their website, association newsletter, social media, or promotional videos. I have read and understand this document and voluntarily enter into it.
​
By signing this form, I am granting WTHSBC my permission to check my student's grade eligibility with the School Districts Administration Office to ensure participation eligibility as specified in Article 8 of the Bylaws.
​
I have read the Bylaws of WTHSBC and THSBC and consent and agree to all the rules set forth in that document. Those rules can be found on this website and are publicly posted.
The success of WTHSBC for this year and for years to come has to come from parent involvement. We have coaches and volunteers that donate their time, but don't have students involved in the program, so it becomes difficult for them to attend every club function. WE MUST HAVE PARENTS WHO ARE INVOLVED.
