NCAA/HIGH SCHOOL ELIGIBILITY. I understand and agree that if I am, or may become, a student-athlete I am responsible for my own eligibility and/or amateur standing. I am aware of, and agree to comply with, all applicable rules, regulations, and bylaws of my state/territory/national association(s), the NCAA and of any other governing bodies that may be applicable to me (“the Rules”). I understand the consequences of any failure to comply with the Rules, including but not limited to, loss of my eligibility to participate in future athletic contests in any sport.
For purposes of this “Participant Release” document, “THE ONE” means any event being held at 620 S Broadway, Los Angeles, CA 90014 from 8.2.2025 – 8.03.2025, any and all transportation to, from and between Event locations, all product testing at the Event, and all other activities related to the Event and to my participation in the Event. In consideration of the opportunity to participate in the Event, I, the undersigned participant, acknowledge and agree that:
ASSUMPTION OF RISK. Participation in or attendance at the "THE ONE" involves inherent risks and dangers of accidents, personal and bodily injury (including death) and property loss or damage, and severe social and economic losses. These may result from my own actions or inactions or negligence, as well as the actions or inactions or negligence of others, the rules of play, and the condition of the facilities and equipment or vehicles. Further, there may be other risks not known to me and not reasonably foreseeable at this time. I understand and I have considered and evaluated the nature, scope and extent of the risks involved, and I voluntarily choose to assume all such risks, both known and unknown, even those risks that result from the negligence of the Released Parties (defined below) or others and assume full responsibility for my participation in the Event. I warrant that I am physically and mentally able to fully participate in the Event. I consent to treatment in the event of an emergency or other incident in which, in the reasonable judgment of the on-site personnel, I require medical care. I further agree to pay all costs associated with such medical care and to indemnify and hold harmless the Released Parties (as defined below) from any costs or claims arising from such medical care.
RELEASE FROM LIABILITY. I, for myself and on behalf of my heirs, estate, insurers, successors and assigns, fully and forever release and discharge NIKE, Inc. and the affiliates and subsidiaries of NIKE, Inc., their respective officers, directors, shareholders, employees, agents, distributors, representatives, contractors, successors, assigns, and insurers, all Event sponsors, advertisers, volunteers, and staff, and all owners or lessors of premises used in connection with the Event (collectively, the “Released Parties”) from any and all injuries (including death), losses, damages, claims (including negligence claims, excluding gross negligence and intentional misconduct claims), demands, lawsuits, expenses, and any other liability of any kind, of or to me, my property, or any other person, directly or indirectly arising out of or in connection with my participation in or attendance at the Event, including transportation related to the Event, even if it is due to the negligence of the Released Parties, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
AUTHORIZATION TO RECORD AND TO USE RECORDINGS AND NAME. I hereby grant to NIKE, Inc., its affiliates, subsidiaries, successors, assigns and licensees (collectively “NIKE”) permission to film, photograph, video record and otherwise record my image, voice, quotes, avatar, name, biographical data, silhouette, body dimension, shape, posture, personal property, or any other aspect of my attendance at the Event (collectively the “Recording”) and the right, throughout the world, in perpetuity, to register for copyright, to use and to assign and/or license others to use all or any portion of the results thereof (or a reproduction thereof), in all media and in any manner now known or hereafter developed, in connection with the Event or otherwise without any additional consideration. I shall have no right of approval and no legal claim arising out of any use or editing of the Recording or my name. NIKE shall have no obligation to use any of the rights I grant.

The hearing shall be conducted in Portland, Oregon unless both parties consent to a different location. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon all parties, and judgment upon the award rendered pursuant to such arbitration may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
