Assumption of Risk

As a result I can confirm that my child is able to participate in Colchester Weightlifting Ltd's coached Youth sessions. I recognise that exercise, weightlifting and Olympic Weightlifting might be difficult and strenuous at times and is not free from risk that may result in injury.

Colchester Weightlifting reserves the right to refuse/revoke membership and/or training programmes if we feel the child is not able to participate in sessions safely.

In consideration of Colchester Weightlifting Ltd.’ agreement to instruct, assist, and train my child, I do hereby release and discharge and hereby hold harmless Colchester Weightlifting Ltd., and their respective agents, heirs, assigns, contractors and employees from any and all claims, demands, damages, rights or causes of action, present and future, arising out of or connected with my child's participation in this or any programme including any injuries resulting from them.
