Bridlebrook Park Tennis Club

(COVID-19)

During the COVID-19 pandemic, all Bridlebrook Park Tennis Club members must confirm their health status prior to the use of Bridlebrook Park Tennis Club facilities by signing the statement below.

I understand that if I am not able to confirm any part of the below statement, I will not be permitted to use DTC facilities until such time as I can confirm ALL parts of the Statement.

STATEMENT:

• I confirm that I have not been diagnosed by a health practitioner as having COVID-19 (this does not include people who have completely recovered from COVID-19 and have been symptom-free for 14 days)

• I confirm that my temperature is below 38 degrees Celsius and I am not experiencing any of the following symptoms: a new onset or worsening of a cough, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, sore throat, hoarse voice, difficulty swallowing, loss of taste or smell, runny nose/sneezing, nasal congestion, chills, muscle aches, diarrhea, malaise, or headache. (If you do not own a thermometer, you can confirm that you do not feel feverish.)

• I confirm that I have not been out of Canada at any time during the last 14 days.

• I confirm that, to the best of my knowledge, within the last 14 days, I have not been in “close contact” with anyone who has been diagnosed with COVID-19 or has been out of the country for 14 days.

Close contact is defined by Health Canada as being within 2 metres (6 feet) of an individual with diagnosed COVID-19 for a “prolonged period of time” or having direct contact with infectious body fluids of a person with COVID-19, such as being coughed/sneezed on, without the appropriate use of recommended personal protective equipment.

You can use 15 minutes as a reasonable gauge for what is a prolonged period of time.

Coronavirus/COVID-19 Assumption of Risk and Waiver of Liability

The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, provincial and local governments and health agencies recommend social distancing and have, in many locations, prohibited the congregation of groups of people.

Bridlebrook Park Tennis Club (“the Club”) has put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVD-19; however, the Club cannot guarantee that you (or your children) will not become infected with COVID-19. Further, attending the Club could increase your risk (and your children’s risk) of contracting COVID-19.

By signing this agreement, I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19 and voluntarily assume the risk that I (and my children) may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 by attending the Club, and that such exposure or infection may result in personal illness, injury, permanent disability, or death. I understand that the risk of becoming exposed to or infected by COVID-19 at the Club may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of myself and others, including, but not limited to, Club employees, volunteers, program participants and their families. I voluntarily agree to assume all of the foregoing risks and accept sole responsibility for any illness or injury to myself (or to my children), including, but not limited to, personal injury, disability, death, damage, loss, claim, liability, or expense, of any kind, that I (or my children) may experience or incur in connection with my (or my children’s) attendance at the Club or participation in any Club programs or activities (“Claims”). On my behalf (and on behalf of my children), I hereby release, covenant not to sue, discharge, and hold harmless the Club, its officers and directors, employees, agents and representatives, of and from the Claims, including all liabilities, claims, actions, damages, costs or expenses of any kind arising out of or relating thereto. I understand and agree that this release includes any Claims based on the actions, omissions, or negligence of the Club, its directors or officers, employees, agents and representatives, whether a COVID-19 infection occurs before, during, or after participation in any Club program or activity.
