Parent/Guardian Consent and Supervision Form

This form is required for all competitors under 18 years of age as of the first day of the event. It must be signed by the parent/guardian of the young person and NOT their representative.
Risk Statement
Sailing is by its nature an unpredictable sport and therefore inherently involves an element of risk.

a) I am aware of the inherent element of risk involved in the sport and accept responsibility for exposing my child to such inherent risks;

c) I will not allow my child to participate in racing whilst under the undue influence of alcohol, drugs or whilst otherwise unfit to participate;
d) I am responsible for ensuring that the boat is in good order, equipped and insured (includuing third party insurance of at least £3 million);
e) I am responsible for my child’s property whether afloat or ashore;
f) I accept responsibility for any injury, damage or loss to the extent caused by my own actions or omissions or actions or omissions of my child;
g) the provision of a race management team, patrol boats and other officials and volunteers does not relieve me of my parental/guardianship responsibilities or my child of his/her responsibilities;
h) the provision of patrol boat cover is limited to such assistance, particularly in extreme weather conditions, as can be practically provided in the circumstances;
i) I consent to my child participating in drug testing procedures and if asked providing a urine sample under observation for analysis at an accredited laboratory.
Acceptance of the Rules
