WAIVER & RELEASE
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The Woodridge Park District is committed to conducting its recreation programs and activities in a safe manner and holds the safety of
participants in high regard. The Woodridge Park District continually strives to reduce such risks and insists that all participants follow
safety rules and instructions that are designed to protect the participants’ safety. However, participants and parents/guardians of
minors registering for this program must recognize that there is an inherent risk of injury when choosing to participate in recreational
activities.
You are solely responsible for determining if you or your minor child/ward is physically fit and/or adequately skilled for the activities
contemplated by this agreement. It is always advisable, especially if the participant is pregnant, disabled in any way or recently
suffered an illness, injury or impairment, to consult a physician before undertaking any physical activity.
WARNING OF RISK
Soccer is intended to challenge and engage the physical, mental and emotional resources of each participant. Despite careful and
proper preparation, instruction, medical advice, conditioning and equipment, there is still a risk of serious injury. All hazards and
dangers cannot be foreseen. Because soccer is a contact sport played with little or no equipment and because it puts great demands
on stamina, the very nature of the game of soccer is hazardous and risky. Such risks and dangers include, but are not limited to, acts of
kicking, heading and fielding the ball, colliding with other players or stationary objects, being struck by errant balls, running, jumping,
stretching, sliding, diving, acts of God, inclement weather, poor officiating, inadequate or defective equipment, failure in supervision
or instruction, poor officiating, unsportsmanlike conduct, dangerous or defective playing conditions such as rocks or holes on or off
the playing field, incorrect footwear in poor weather conditions, horseplay, carelessness, and all other circumstances inherent to sport
of soccer. In this regard, it is impossible for the Woodridge Park District to guarantee absolute safety.
WAIVER AND RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK
Please read this form carefully and be aware that in signing up and participating in this program/activity, you will be expressly
assuming the risk and legal liability and waiving and releasing all claims for injuries, damages or loss which you or your minor
child/ward might sustain as a result of participating in any and all activities connected with and associated with this program/activity
(including transportation services and vehicle operations, when provided).
I recognize and acknowledge that there are certain risks of physical injury to participants in this program/activity, and I voluntarily
agree to assume the full risk of any and all injuries, damages or loss, regardless of severity, that my minor child/ward or I may sustain as
a result of said participation. I further agree to waive and relinquish all claims I or my minor child/ward may have (or accrue to me or
my child/ward) as a result of participating in this program/activity against the Woodridge Park District, including its officials, agents,
volunteers and employees.
I have read and fully understand the above important information, warning of risk, assumption of risk and waiver and release
of all claims. If registering on-line or via fax, my on-line or facsimile signature shall substitute for and have the same legal
effect as an original form signature.

Tournament Rules
USSF Outdoor Governing Rules Applies
1. Length of Games: Running Clock Games are 30 minutes in length. Teams may have 1-2 minute warmup.
Clock starts at 32 minutes at the end of the game prior. Game starts at 30 minute mark. No half time. Play
shall be extended at the end of any period to allow a penalty kick to be taken or re-taken. In such
situation, the kick is considered completed when the ball energy is spent where any rebounds (from the
ground, goalkeeper, crossbar or goal posts) will not be considered playable. In the case of an injury that
delays play, the referee will indicate the game time if there is a time change. The clock MAY be stopped
for serious injury only.
2. Teams Playing: The Home team (listed first) must change to their alternate jersey if there is a conflict of
color. Teams may take either bench.
3. Number of Players: (7 v 7). The maximum number of players on the field shall be 7 (includes a goalie). All
Players must have a player card from their state organization. The Woodridge Park District waiver for
each player must be turned in at registration.
4. For matters not specifically covered by these rules, FIFA Laws of the Game shall be followed when
reasonably applicable.
5. NO PUNTING FOR ANY AGES.

procedure may incur warning (Yellow Card) from the official.
