By participating at the Purdue Ballroom Classic, either as a competitor or spectator, you are agreeing to the following:


Waiver, Release and Hold Harmless Agreement

In consideration of permission granted by Purdue University allowing me to participate in The Purdue Ballroom Classic, including the Friday Welcome Dance, The Competition Day, and the Sunday Workshops (the "Activity"), which will occur from Nov 10th, 2017 through Nov 12th, 2017 which is sponsored by the Purdue Latin & Ballroom Dance Team, I (together with my parent or guardian, if I am under the age of eighteen or under a legal disability) represent, covenant and agree, on behalf of myself and my heirs, assigns, and any other person claiming by, under or through me, as follows:

      I.    I acknowledge that participating in the Activity involves certain risks (some of which I may not fully appreciate) and that injuries, death, property damage or other harm could occur to me or others. I accept and voluntarily incur all risks of any injuries, damages, or harm which arise during or result from my participation in the Activity, regardless of whether or not caused in whole or in part by the negligence or other fault of Purdue University, the Trustees of Purdue University, and/or its or their departments, affiliates, employees, officers, agents or insurers ("Released Parties").

     II.    I waive all claims against any of the Released Parties for any injuries, damages, losses or claims, whether known and unknown, which arise during or result from my participation in the Activity, regardless of whether or not caused in whole or part by the negligence or other fault of any of the Released Parties. I release and forever discharge the Released Parties from all such claims.

    III.    I agree to indemnify and hold the Released Parties harmless from all losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and other litigation costs and expenses) incurred by any of the Released Parties as a result of any claims or suits that I (or anyone claiming by, under or through me) may bring against any of the Released Parties to recover any losses, liabilities, costs, damages, or expenses which arise during or result from my participation in the Activity, regardless of whether or not caused in whole or part by the negligence or other fault of any of the Released Parties.

   IV.    I have carefully read and reviewed this Waiver, Release and Hold Harmless Agreement. I understand it fully and I execute it voluntarily.

    V.    I understand that the team reserves the right to eject any person(s) deemed unruly or unfit to stay within the activity.
