Please read all Conduct, Liability, Medical Release waivers and Payment/Refund policies below. They are included in your registration and will require acknowledgment and confirmation.
PLAYER CONDUCT: I agree to follow all rules and regulations set by the coaching staff of WEST SIDE LACROSSE. I will conduct myself in an honorable manner as a member of this team and a representative of West Michigan Lacrosse. I will treat all people I encounter while I am a member of West Side with Class & Respect. That includes, but is not limited to, opposing players, parents, coaches and officials. I also agree to attend all practices, tournaments and team functions within my power. I will not engage in inappropriate behavior of any sort while participating in any team function, on the way to or from said team functions, or while staying at a hotel with the team. I am aware that failing to meet the requirements of team policies can result in losing play time and possibly my spot on this team without refund.
PARENT CONDUCT: I hereby allow my son/daughter permission to participate in all team functions (games, tournaments, practices, or other required) for the West Side Travel Lacrosse Program. I also agree to conduct myself accordingly at all games and/or events I attend. I will not disrespect opposing players, coaches, parents or officials in any manner and will set an example of sportsmanship for my child to follow. I understand that failure to do so may result in expulsion from team functions and could potentially embarrass my child scarring them for life. I will not be “that person.”
MEDICAL TREATMENT AUTHORIZATION: I authorize medical treatment and care for my son/daughter as may be deemed necessary. I understand that the consent and authorization granted herein does not include surgical procedures and are valid only during the time that my child is in attendance. I know that it is my responsibility to tell the coaching staff if my child has any physical condition or requires any treatment or medication that a clinician should be aware of (allergies, disabilities, medical condition, etc.) and I must provide this in written notification at the time of registration. I understand that every reasonable attempt will be made to contact me in case of an emergency. However, in the event of an emergency and if I cannot be reached, I give my consent for my child to receive the proper treatment and/or medical services needed to perform any necessary emergency procedures.
