Waiver template
The participant waiver for an outing or tournament: struck by a ball, lightning on open ground, and the prize-contest terms.
Not a sample we wrote for this page. This is the document the product puts in your account, as a draft, the moment you say what you do.
Name your trade during setup — golf courses and private clubs — and this is waiting for you, already written, in your words, with the blanks marked and the points a lawyer settles flagged for one. Edit it, or paste in what you already use. It is a starting point and not legal advice: the wording is yours to change and your attorney's to check.
Read off the document itself, so this list cannot drift away from what the document actually asks for.

6 blanks. They are filled once per send, from what you already know or from your own system through the API. They go into the document; they do not change its wording, and what somebody signed is the version they were shown.
These are the notes already written into the document, not our opinion about the law where you operate. The product refuses to send a document with one still in it, which is the point of them.
check who is responsible for withholding and reporting on a prize where you operate, and what a prize-contest insurer requires to be witnessed.
SignSealer does not give legal advice and this document is not legal advice. What it does is put the questions in front of you before somebody signs, rather than after.
The real text, with the blanks shown as blanks and the notes above lifted out so they are read rather than skimmed past.
Tournament and Outing Participant Waiver
business name — event name on date. Participant: guest name.
1. Taking part. I am playing in the event named, under its format and rules, and I will follow the instructions of the starter, the marshals and the professional staff.
2. The risks of a golf course. I understand that a golf course is a place where hard balls travel fast and not always where they are aimed, where clubs are swung near other people, where carts are driven, where lightning is a real danger in open ground, and where ground is uneven. I accept those risks for myself, including being struck by a ball or a club.
3. My own play. I will shout a warning when my ball may reach anybody, wait until the group ahead is clear, and not play into them.
4. Weather. I will leave the course and take shelter when play is suspended, and I understand that staying out is my decision and my risk.
5. Contests. If the event includes a hole-in-one, long-drive or other prize contest, the prize, its conditions and who insures it are as set out here: contest terms. Any tax on a prize is the winner's.
6. Food, drink and alcohol. If alcohol is served I will drink responsibly, and I understand that staff may refuse service and that driving after drinking is my own responsibility and offence.
7. Photographs. business name and the event organiser may photograph play for the event's own record and publication, unless I write otherwise here: photo preference.
8. Release. To the extent the law where business name operates allows, I release business name, the event organiser and their staff from claims for injury, loss or damage arising from my ordinary participation, other than claims arising from their negligence or misconduct that the law does not let a release cover.
By signing I confirm that I have read this, had the chance to ask about it, and meant to sign it.
