All-Star Insurance Issues

Doesn't the EP have cheerleaders sign waivers, which releases them from being liable?

This was addressed earlier in the thread.

Signing a waiver doesn't mean anything.

In Canada, at least, if a parent or guardian signs a waiver for a minor, that minor can pursue legal action after they reach the age of majority. As someone already said, if waivers are misleading or untrue, they can be nullified.

Waivers are just barely covering your own booty. If something goes seriously wrong, there are ways around a signed waiver. And people who have been hurt (emotionally, physically) are pretty darn resourceful when it comes to seeking repentance and/or damages.

We need insurance. Athletes, gyms, EPs.

The "banning" of standing fulls and doubles isn't because of people getting injured doing them in competition...it's because of people getting seriously injured when learning them (and a lot are learning from under qualified coaches).
