THIS IS A RELEASE OF LIABILITY - READ BEFORE AGREEING, ONCE YOU INITIAL AND SUBMIT YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AGREEMENT TO THE TERMS AS WRITTEN HERE.
IN CONSIDERATION of being permitted to participate in any way in the sport and activities of Robotic Combat
under the auspices of the Northeast Robotics Club, I acknowledge, appreciate, and agree that:
1.) The risk of injury from this activity and weaponry involved in robotic combat is significant, including the
potential for permanent disability and death, and while particular protective equipment and personal
discipline will minimize this risk, the risk of serious injury does exist.
2.) I KNOWINGLY AND FREELY ASSUME ALL SUCH RISKS, both known and unknown, EVEN IF ARISING
FROM THE NEGLIGENCE of those persons released from liability below, and assume full responsibility for
my participation; and,
3.) I understand that the activities of robotic combat are physically and mentally intense. I understand the rules
of competition and will comply with all the rules and regulations. If I observe any unusual or unnecessary
hazard during my participation, I will bring such to the attention of the nearest official as soon as practical;
and
4.) I, for myself and on behalf of my heirs, assigned personal representatives and next of kin, HEREBY
RELEASE AND HOLD HARMLESS THE Northeast Robotics Club (NERC), its officers and crew, and the
owners and lessors of premises used to conduct the robotic combat activities, their officers, officials, agents
and/or employees (“Releases”), WITH RESPECT TO ANY AND ALL INJURY, DISABILITY, DEATH, or
loss or damage to personal property, WHETHER CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF THE RELEASES
OR OTHERWISE, except that which is in the result of gross negligence and/or wanton misconduct.
5.) I understand and agree that this Release of Liability Agreement covers each and every robotic combat
activity in which I participate.
6.) I irrevocably grant permission to the Club and its agents, licensees and licensors nonexclusively to utilize my
and my robots name and image or likeness in published photographs or incidental to any live or recorded
