I understand that participating in the activities of an AOCRA affiliated Outrigger Canoe Club

(hereinafter known as “the Club”) will be on water and therefore I am required to be a

competent swimmer and I also understand that outrigger activity carries with it the

inherent risk of physical injury, including serious injury such as permanent disability,

paralysis and even death and in undertaking such activities I do so at my own risk.

I am also aware that it is a condition to my participation in any official or sanctioned

outrigger event that AOCRA, its officers, employees, representatives, agents, volunteers,

instructors, members, or servants are absolved from all liability howsoever arising from

injury or damage howsoever caused (whether fatal or otherwise) arising out of my

participation in an event or in training, instruction or carriage in any vessel being used for

or in connection with outrigger canoe racing or in any way whatsoever due to any negligent

act, breach of duty, default and/or omission on the part of AOCRA, its respective officers,

employees, representatives, agents, volunteers, instructors, members, or servants.

I am also aware that any person participating in outrigger canoe racing, learning to

outrigger, training or being involved with any vessel being used for or in connection with

outrigger canoe racing or participating in any activity carried out by AOCRA and the Club,

are only allowed to do so on the distinct understanding that they do so at their own risk.

This agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, their

successors, administrators, assigns and personal representatives.

In consideration of being allowed to participate in the activities of the Club, which includes

training for up to and including, but not more than 6 paddling sessions under the cover of

this signed form. This does not include the participation in regattas.
