Pelion Rise
Liability Waiver & Release
Version v1-2026-07-06. Accepted electronically at each booking; your acceptance is timestamped and stored with the booking record.
1. Assumption of risk
Athletic training — including basketball skills work and bodyweight speed & agility training — involves inherent risks: falls, collisions, muscle and joint injuries, cardiac events, and in rare cases severe injury. On behalf of myself and my athlete, I understand those risks, confirm my athlete is physically able to participate, and voluntarily accept and assume all such risks, whether or not listed above.
2. Release of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, I release and hold harmless Pelion Rise, its owners, employees, and agents, and the independent trainer delivering the session, from any claims, demands, or causes of action arising out of ordinary negligence connected with participation in a booked session. This release does not extend to gross negligence, willful misconduct, or any conduct prohibited by law.
3. Independent trainers
Trainers on Pelion Rise are independent professionals, not employees of the platform. Pelion Rise verifies each trainer's Tier-0 credentials (government ID, background check, SafeSport training, current CPR/First-Aid/AED) before they can accept bookings, but does not supervise individual sessions.
4. Medical authorization
If my athlete is injured and I am not present or reachable, I authorize the trainer to secure emergency medical treatment. I am responsible for any resulting medical costs. I agree to disclose relevant medical conditions to the trainer before the first session.
5. Payment protection (how your money is handled)
You are charged when you book. Funds are held by the platform and released to the trainer only after a GPS-confirmed session. Cancellations follow the published policy: 100% refund up to 24 hours before the session; 50% inside 24 hours; trainer cancellations always refund 100%. Issues reported within 48 hours of a session freeze the trainer payout until a human reviews.
6. Agreement
By checking the waiver box at booking, I confirm I am the parent or legal guardian of the athlete, I have read and understood this waiver, and I agree to it on behalf of myself and my athlete for the booked session and any rescheduled continuation of it.
