Palm Beach County PAL Release and Liability Waiver:

Participation in any Palm Beach County PAL league, program, or activity, and use of any recreational facilities, involves a risk of accidental injury despite all safety precautions. Having been informed of the activities to be conducted by the Palm Beach County Police Athletic League, I, as parent/guardian of the youth named herein, assume all risk and hazards incidental to my child’s participation in Palm Beach County PAL. Any athlete who is suspected of sustaining a concussion or head injury in a practice or competition will be immediately removed from the activity. A youth athlete who has been removed from an activity may not return to practice or competition until the youth submit to the athletic coach a written medical clearance to return stating that the youth athlete no longer exhibits signs, symptoms, or behaviors consistent with a concussion or other head injury. I, as a parent/guardian, release from responsibility and agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners, Palm Beach County PAL, National Association of Police Athletic Leagues, and their employees, officers, directors, agents and volunteers for any illness or injury to my child and/or family members occurring during participation in any PAL activities or use of recreational facilities at, or conducted by, the Palm Beach County PAL, including any transportation provided to my child, whether or not said injury or illness is caused by the negligence of the said employees, officers, directors, independent contractors, agents, and volunteers, or by a third party.
