1. Participation and scope
This agreement concerns membership wrestling instruction, practices, drills, live wrestling, supervised conditioning and related activities conducted by Este Built LLC, doing business as Este Built Wrestling Club (the Club), at 7 Naughright Road, Suite 7M, Hackettstown, New Jersey 07840. Participation is voluntary. The participant and signer agree to follow the Club's safety directions.
2. Acknowledgment of risks
Wrestling is a contact sport. Activities involve falls, takedowns, throws, holds, collisions, close physical contact, exertion and contact with mats or equipment. Risks include sprains, fractures, dislocations, skin infections and other communicable illness, concussion, head or neck injury, spinal cord injury, paralysis and death. Injury can occur despite instruction, supervision, protective equipment or reasonable precautions. Risks may arise from the participant's actions, other participants, facility conditions or equipment. The participant and signer understand these risks; they do not agree to assume risks that applicable law does not permit them to assume.
3. Adult participant release — participants age 18 or older only
If I am the adult participant, I voluntarily accept the inherent risks of these activities. To the fullest extent permitted by New Jersey law, I release Este Built LLC and its owners, coaches, employees and volunteers acting in their Club roles from claims I personally may have for injury, death or property damage arising from their ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE in these membership activities. Ordinary negligence means a failure to use reasonable care. This provision does not release gross negligence, recklessness, intentional misconduct, nonwaivable statutory duties or any right or claim that cannot lawfully be released. This adult release applies only to a signer participating as an adult.
4. Parent or legal guardian consent — minor participants
If the participant is under age 18, I confirm that I am the participant's parent or legal guardian and have authority to consent to participation. I have read the risks above, understand that serious injury is possible and consent to the minor's participation. I will explain age-appropriate safety rules to the participant and inform the Club of restrictions relevant to safe participation. My signature acknowledges risks and gives participation consent; it does not purport to release the minor's prospective tort claims, require the minor to indemnify anyone, or surrender rights that New Jersey law preserves.
5. Safety and fitness to participate
The participant will follow instructions, use equipment as directed, avoid deliberately unsafe conduct and promptly report an injury, suspected concussion, illness or unsafe condition. The participant will stop activity when injured, unwell or instructed to stop. The signer confirms that no known restriction preventing participation is being concealed and will seek medical guidance when appropriate. Club staff do not provide a medical clearance or guarantee that participation is safe.
6. Emergency assistance
If an emergency occurs, I authorize Club staff to request emergency assistance and to contact the listed emergency contact. When I cannot be reached, I authorize evaluation and treatment by licensed medical professionals as permitted by applicable law. I understand that emergency and medical services may be provided by independent professionals and may create costs payable under applicable law and insurance arrangements. The Club does not promise insurance coverage.
7. Acknowledgment and electronic signature
I have read the complete agreement, had the opportunity to ask questions and understand that the adult release, when applicable, affects legal rights. I am at least age 18 and sign either for myself as the adult participant or as the minor's parent/legal guardian. I intend a typed or drawn signature, together with an affirmative agreement selection in an electronic form, to serve as my electronic signature. A record must identify the participant, signer, signer role, agreement version and signing date/time. No signature may be supplied by a coach for an athlete or parent.
8. General terms
New Jersey law governs this agreement. If any provision is unenforceable, the remaining lawful provisions continue to apply. Nothing in this agreement eliminates a duty or right that cannot legally be waived. This document does not add payment, cancellation, automatic renewal, media release or marketing terms.
