READ Carefully Before Accepting
In applying to the MBRC
surfing tournaments, I promise to inspect the contest sites, and assure myself
that the areas are safe for surfing, and further agree that I will not surf in
any contest, unless I am satisfied that the area and conditions are safe for
surfing purposes. As a participant or Parent /Legal Guardian of competitor, I
agree it is my choice to enter the contest area (Ocean & Beach) based on my
own level of skill and experience given the conditions of the day. In exchange
for the Manasquan Board Riders Club (MBRC) accepting my entry and entry fees, I
voluntarily agree to assume all risks related to the sport of surfing. I fully
understand and comprehend the dangers of surfing created by the surfboard’s
sharp edges and fins, along with the natural buoyancy of a surfboard when acted
upon by the powerful forces of the ocean and ocean waves. With full knowledge,
comprehension and understanding of these dangers, I voluntarily accept and
assume all risks involved in the sport of competitive surfing including, but
not limited to, communicable diseases, COVID19 and / or any other potentially
known or unknown hazards or risks. I will further read and comply with all the
MBRC rules and regulations, noting existing weather conditions, and do agree
that I voluntarily assume all risks arising from conditions related to the use
of contest sites by myself and others. In consideration of your acceptance of
my entry, I intend to be legally bound, hereby, for myself, my heirs, executors
and administrators, hold harmless and release and forever discharge the
Manasquan Board Riders Club, The Borough of Manasquan, the State of New
Jersey, and all MBRC Corporate Sponsors and local sponsors, their members,
agents and any directors or officials connected with this competition, from all
