RELEASE FROM LIABILITY and CONSENT TO DRUG TEST:

 

NOTE:  (Please read this release very carefully as when you sign it, you will be giving up important legal rights.)

In consideration of the acceptance of my entry form for the 2008 1nd OHIO, WEST VIRGINIA & KENTUCKY POWERLIFTING & BENCH PRESS COMPETITION, I intend to be legally bound for not only myself, but also my heirs, executors and my administrators. 

Additionally, I understand that Powerlifting is an inherently hazardous activity and that participation in this sport exposes me to the risk of injury or death.  I further understand that the A.D.F.P.F. will NOT reimburse me for, or coverage of any medical expenses incurred by me as a result of injuries that I might sustain, training for, traveling to or from, or participating in the competition. 

In signing this release from liability, I waive and release anyone connected with this competition; i.e. the meet director, the ADFPF, competition sponsors and staff, the World Drug-Free Powerlifting Federation (WDFPF), the contest facilities or any persons associated with the competition from any and all liability, including any results of negligence which may arise from this competition.  Moreover, I agree that any testing method selected by A.D.F.P.F. recognized testing officers may be applied to detect the presence of drugs, as listed on the International Olympic Committee (IOC) banned substances list SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE. I agree to co-operate fully with all required IOC sampling and testing procedures. This includes any testing procedures that may be considered necessary prior to or after this event. 

Should I fail to pass the drug testing procedures, I agree to forfeit any trophy, award, record or placing which I won during the competition and I also forfeit any previous trophy, award, record or placing should the offence be deemed serious enough, according to ADFPF & WDFPF rules, to warrant such an action.  I understand and agree that if I fail to pass the drug testing process, my name will appear on a published list of suspended members.  If determined that I failed the drug test, I agree to waive any claim for which legal relief is available.  I also agree to waive any claim that might arise under state, national or international law for defamation, slander, libel, or any other claim for which legal relief is available.

I realize that if I do not attend this 2008 POWERLIFTING & BENCH PRESS COMPETITION for any reason, I will forfeit all fees, which cannot be exchanged.

I agree to pay any attorney fees and litigation expenses incurred by any person real or corporate, whom I may sue in an effort to challenge this release from liability.

I understand that my agreement to pay attorney fees and litigation expenses is the SINE QUA NON for acceptance of my entry in this championship.   If any provision of this Release From Liability shall be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the remainder of this Release from Liability shall remain in full force and effect.  I also certify with my signature that this release/agreement cannot be modified orally.
