AGREEMENT:
NOTE THIS FORM INCLUDES A RELEASE OF LIABILITY:
Please review and complete the sections below and sign in the space provided to indicate your agreement with all 
statements made in such sections.

AUTHORIZATION AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY:
I the parent or guardian of the above-named child authorize the participation of my child in the Upward Unlimited 
athletic program (the "Program") of the above-named Church.  My child will participate in the Upward (Soccer, basketball, 
cheerleading, flag football) (circle program that applies) program.

I understand the this Program is a nonprofit Christian sports ministry program for youth and that my child's participation is 
voluntary and not essential to completion of requirements of any program, school or government agency.  I understand that 
the Program is conducted by the Church and its volunteers and staff, including parents of other participating children.  I also 
understand that the Church is solely responsible for all aspects of the Program including selection and supervision of all 
persons conducting the Program, and that Upward Unlimited is not responsible for the Program or selecting and supervising 
persons conducting the Program.  I further understand and agree that my child's participation in athletic and other activities 
of the Program necessarily involves the risk of injury and even death from various causes, including but not limited to accidents, 
falls, strenuous and prolonged physical activity, dehydration, illness, collision or dispute with other participants, weather 
related injuries, playing area and equipment defects, and negligence of coaches and referees.  On behalf of my child, me, and 
my family, I assume these risks.

In consideration of the privilege of my child's participation in the Program, and on behalf of my child and me as parent/ guardian, 
I hereby release, discharge, hold harmless and indemnify, and covenant not to sue, the Church and Upward Unlimited, and all 
of the Church's and Upward Unlimited's directors, officers, elders, trustees, deacons, employees, volunteers, insurers, agents, 
and representatives, and all other persons associated with the Program (including without limitation any other participating 
churches, sponsors, parents, vendors, coaches and other game and event workers, officials, drivers, and organizations) as to 
any and all claims of my child, me and other family members for personal injuries suffered by my child, property damage,
medical expenses, and economic loss arising directly or indirectly out of my child's participation in the Program, and any first aid, 
medical care or treatment provided to my child in the event my child is injured or becomes ill while participating in Program 
activities, and excepting claims that may not be released under applicable law.  This Release of Liability shall be as broadly 
construed as allowed by law to include all claims and rights that the child, that I as parent/guardian, and that other family 
members may have.  
I am a legally responsible parent or guardian of my child.  If any provision of this Release of Liability is deemed invalid, the 
remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.  This Release of Liability shall be binding on me, my family, heirs, 
next of kin, legal representatives, beneficiaries, successors and assigns.  I give permission for free use of my child's name and 
picture in broadcasts. telecasts or written accounts for any participation in an Upward Unlimited sponsored event.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS:
I understand that participation in the Program may involve strenuous and prolonged physical activity.  I agree that my child is 
healthy and able to participate in the Program activities.

I Understand that the Church or its representatives may request health information concerning my child and/or as my child to 
undergo a medical exam.  If the Church determines that my child does have a physical or mental condition that may affect his/her 
ability to safely and appropriately participate in Program activities, the Church may determine that my child cannot be permitted 
to participate.  I understand and agree that, while the Church desires that all children will be able to participate, such decisions 
may have to be made out of concern for the best interests of my child and other participants.

CONSENT TO MEDICAL TREATMENT
In the event my child is injured or becomes ill in Program activities, and if I, the parent or guardian of the above-named child, 
am not present to make medical decisions, I hereby authorize the Church, its staff, volunteers including volunteer parent participants,
coaches, assistant coaches, and referees, supervisors and drivers, to arrange for and consent on my behalf to emergency medical 
and dental care and treatment, including tests and radiological exams, and surgery, and hospital care and treatment, and to consent 
to medications for pain and other conditions as prescribed by medical personnel attending my child.  I am responsible for payment 
of any medical charges or expenses not covered by my insurance or the insurance applicable to my child (if any).

My signature below indicates that all information provided in the form is true and accurate, and that I fully agree to all statements
made on the form, including but not limited to the Authorization and Release of Liability, Medical Conditions, and Consent to

and custody of the child due to death or incapacity of the other parent/guardian or court order, or (2) I have made a good faith 
effort to obtain the signature from the other parent/guardian but have not been able to do so due to causes beyond my control,
