Age Qualification

Must be completed by the Guardian of all persons under 18 years of age.

And I, the minor’s parent and /or legal guardian, understand the nature of sailing activities and the minor’s experience and capabilities and believe the minor to be qualified, in good health and in proper physical condition to participate in such activities. I hereby release, discharge, covenant not to sue, and agree to indemnify and save and hold harmless each of the released parties from all liability, claims, demands, losses or damages on the minor’s account caused or alleged to be caused in whole or in part by the negligence of the released parties or otherwise and further agree that if, despite this release, I, or the minor, or anyone on the minor’s behalf makes a claim against any of the released parties named above, I will indemnify, save and hold harmless each of the released parties from any litigation expenses, attorney fees, loss liability, damage or cost any may incur as the result of any such claim.

Agreement and Waiver of Liability

Liability Act 2002 to all persons wishing to participate in the water activities conducted by Woollahra Sailing Club. Participants are warned that, regardless of the precautions, which might be taken by reasonable and experienced persons, water sports can be a dangerous pursuit, and participants are exposed to significant risk of property damage, physical harm and possibly death. As an indication, these risks may include, but are not limited to:

  • The extremes of weather and sea conditions.
  • The potential that control of vessels may be lost, resulting in collision with objects and other vessels.
  • The sudden movement of the vessel at any time and the possibility that participants may fall or be thrown overboard, resulting in drowning.
  • The possibility that participants may be injured by equipment on the vessel.
  • The absence of immediate medical care and the likelihood that significant delays may occur before medical care is available.
  • Exposure to the elements for extended periods. 

Woollahra Sailing Club and Transport NSW also warn participants that regardless of their best intentions, they may be unable to render assistance to participants who are in distress. Participants are warned to consider the above risks and all other risks before deciding to participate in any water sports event with Woollahra Sailing Club. Ordinary Membership of WSC entitles you to personal accident insurance while participating in organised club activities. My acceptance below means that I have read, understood and agree to the conditions and responsibilities as outlined in this agreement.
