ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF RISKS
I understand that cheerleading involves risks, including:
• Falls from stunts or pyramids
• Impact during catches and group dismounts
• Head, neck, or back injury from tumbling landings
• Wrist, shoulder, or ankle strain while basing or jumping
I understand that these examples do not describe every possible risk.

AGREEMENTS
☐ I understand each athlete must follow the coach's assigned role and timing during stunt practice.
☐ I will ask about an unfamiliar skill rather than trying it with teammates without instruction.
☐ I understand mats, bases, and spotters do not eliminate the risk of falls or injury.

RELEASE AND CONSENT — SAMPLE WORDING
To the extent permitted by applicable law, I voluntarily assume the risks described in this agreement and release [Business name] from claims arising from my participation in the described activities, except claims that cannot lawfully be released.
If signing as a parent or guardian, I confirm my authority to consent to the named minor’s participation. This consent does not release rights that applicable law does not allow a parent or guardian to waive.

SIGNATURE
I have read this agreement and had the opportunity to ask questions before signing.

Illustrative signing preview. Your published form reflects the fields and wording you choose.

01
Athlete, squad, and season
Identify the athlete, age group, team or clinic, and covered season. Separate the guardian's details from the athlete's identity.
02
Cheer activities included
Describe jumps, dance, tumbling, partner stunts, and pyramids where offered. Distinguish a tumbling-only clinic from a program that includes elevated stunts.
03
Stunt and tumbling risks
Explain falls, awkward catches, landings, and contact within a stunt group. Include reviewed risk terms for potentially serious injuries.
04
Group responsibilities and progression
Describe following the coach's assigned role, timing, and progression. Make clear that changing a stunt or attempting a new skill needs instruction.
05
Practice handoff and emergencies
Define arrival and collection points, the contact reachable during practice, and how athletes or guardians report concerns before the next session.
06
Guardian agreement and other permissions
Capture the correct signer and date. Distinguish optional media consent, travel authorization, and competition-organizer documents from routine gym participation.

Questions to settle

Review before you publish.

Does a tumbling waiver cover stunting?

Not automatically. Stunts introduce shared lifting, catches, and elevated positions. Review the activity description before using a tumbling-only document for a cheer team or stunt clinic.

Should the waiver record an athlete's stunt position?

You can collect experience context, but roles may change. Describe the program's activities broadly enough to be accurate and let coaches assign positions through their normal training process.

Can our season waiver replace a competition release?

Do not assume so. Event organizers and venues may require separate documents. Track those requirements in your competition planning while retaining the gym's own signed participation record.
