By participating in any pickleball program, service or event offered by Play Pickle, whether as a participant, player, spectator, coach, or in any other capacity, you are accepting and agreeing to the terms and conditions of play. You acknowledge that you have had sufficient opportunity to read and understand these terms and conditions before choosing to participate.

Age Requirement: All Play Pickle programs (except dedicated children's programs) require participants to be 18 years or older. Participants under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Pickleball, like all sports, carries inherent risks that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to prevent or minimise harm. These risks range from minor injuries such as bruises, strains, and sprains to major injuries such as broken bones, torn ligaments, concussions, and other medical conditions, up to and including death. By choosing to participate, you recognise and understand these risks.

By participating in Play Pickle's pickleball programs, you knowingly and freely assume all such risks, both known and unknown, relating to your participation, and you accept personal responsibility for any damages resulting from such risks.

Play Pickle does not offer personal injury insurance for participants. All participants are strongly encouraged to have their own personal injury and health insurance coverage. It is the sole responsibility of each participant to secure adequate insurance to cover any injuries or damages they might sustain while participating in Play Pickle activities.

You confirm that you are physically fit and have no medical condition that would prevent your full participation in pickleball activities. If you have any concerns, speak to your registered medical professional.

You hereby discharge and hold harmless Play Pickle, its agents, representatives, employees, and any other individuals or entities acting on its behalf, from any and all claims, actions, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, or expenses, whether known or unknown, arising from or related to your participation in any Play Pickle pickleball program.

In the event of an injury or medical emergency while participating, you grant Play Pickle permission to seek emergency medical treatment on your behalf. You agree to be solely responsible for any associated medical or related bills that may arise.

By participating, you grant Play Pickle the right to take photographs or video footage of you and to use these for any lawful purpose, including promotional materials, without compensation to you.

Some activities run by Play Pickle are self-organised and may not have a designated facilitator or supervisor present.

Certain programs may take place without a first-aid kit or a designated first-aid officer on-site.

Participants are responsible for their own safety and are advised to have their own first-aid provisions and contact emergency services (000) in the event of an incident or injury.

Your participation in any Play Pickle pickleball program or event signifies your understanding and agreement to the terms of this Participation Agreement. By choosing to participate, you forgo any rights to bring legal action against Play Pickle for any reason covered by this agreement.

This agreement applies to all current and future participation in any pickleball program or event offered by Play Pickle.
