CCS Code of Conduct

1. Catholic Challenge Sports (“CCS”) is a sports-based ministry serving the Diocese of Kansas City-St Joseph, Missouri.
2. Participation in CCS sports leagues emphasizes fun and Christian fellowship.
3. Each CCS league encourages sportsmanship and safety.
4. Inaccurate or dishonest information supplied during the application process may be grounds for penalties, as determined by CCS.
5. CCS leagues do not tolerate profanity, rowdiness, poor sportsmanship or dangerous play. Inappropriate behavior may lead to ejection from a game, suspension from the league, or other penalties at the sole discretion of CCS.
6. The CCS liaison and league commissioner are authorized to eject a player from a game. Volunteer refs should first address the player and then the captain. If that does not work, the CCS liaison or league commissioner may be brought in to make a decision.
7. A player or non-playing captain who is ejected from a game will be suspended for at least one following game.
8. A player or non-playing captain who is ejected from a game a second time is subject to suspension for the remainder of the season. A committee appointed by CCS will review the violations and determine the length of the suspension, including the possibility of extending it beyond the present CCS season and into future CCS seasons.
9. A player or non-playing captain who has been ejected from a game may be required to leave the premises by a referee/umpire/CCS representative if the behavior continues to be a distraction. Failure to leave may result in forfeiture of game and/or additional penalties. Spectators and guests are required to adhere to this Code of Conduct, where applicable. Spectators and guests in violation of the Code of Conduct are subject to ejection from the premises and, depending on the circumstances, may face legal consequences as well.
10. Any physical attack during or following a play will result in immediate ejection from the game, with the at fault player being required to leave the premises. Additionally, instances of this nature will be subject to review by CCS for consideration of expulsion for the rest of the season or additional penalties as deemed by CCS.

FITNESS EVENT PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT

The Port Authority of Kansas City, Missouri (“Port KC”) controls Berkley Riverfront located in Kansas City, Jackson County, Missouri (“Port KC Property”), and has offered to make a portion of the Port KC Property available for Catholic Challenge Sports (“Fitness Event”) as a public service. The person signing this document (“Releasor”) has elected to participate in the Fitness Event. In consideration of the authorization to occupy and use Port KC Property for the duration of the Fitness Event, Releasor agrees and covenants with Port KC as follows:
1. ASSUMPTION OF RISK. The Fitness Event, by its very nature, carries certain inherent risks that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid injuries. The specific risks vary, but the risks may include (1) minor injuries (such as, but not limited to, scratches, cuts, bruises, strains, and sprains), (2) major injuries (such as, but not limited to, eye injury or loss of sight, major joint or back injuries, major blood loss, bone fractures, heart attacks, strokes, and concussions), and even (3) catastrophic injuries (such as, but not limited to, paralysis and death). I acknowledge that the physical, social and economic losses and/or damages which could result from these inherent risks or dangers could be severe, and that there may even be risks not known to me or that are not reasonably foreseeable at this time. I voluntarily agree to participate in the Fitness Event and assume any and all responsibility, to the fullest extent allowed by law, for any loss, damage, or injury, including death, sustained by me.
2. RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY/HOLD HARMLESS. I hereby release, waive any liability of, and hold harmless Port KC and its commissioners, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns (collectively referred to as the “Released Parties”) from any and all liability, claims, demands, actions, costs and expenses, and causes of action whatsoever arising out of or related to any loss, damage, or injury, including death, that may be sustained by me, or to any property belonging to me, while participating in the Fitness Event, and while in, on or upon the Port KC Property in connection with the Fitness Event, regardless of whether such loss, damage or injury is caused by the negligence of the Released Parties, or otherwise, and further regardless of whether such liability arises in tort, contract, strict liability, or otherwise, to the fullest extent allowed by law.
3. COVENANT NOT TO SUE. I hereby covenant not to bring any legal proceeding against any Released Parties arising out of or related to any loss, damage, or injury, including death, that may be sustained by me, or to any property belonging to me, while participating in the Fitness Event, and while in, on or upon the Port KC Property in connection with the Fitness Event, regardless of whether such loss, damage or injury is caused in whole or in part by the Released Parties, or otherwise, and further regardless of whether such liability arises in tort, contract, strict liability, or otherwise, to the fullest extent allowed by law.
4. INDEMNIFICATION. I will defend and indemnify the Released Parties from and against all claims, damages, liability, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or related to any loss, damage, or injury, including death, that may be sustained by me, or to any property belonging to me, while participating in the Fitness Event, and while in, on or upon the
{00016077.DOCX; 1} Page 2 of 3
Port KC Property in connection with the Fitness Event, regardless of whether or not caused in whole or in part by any act or omission of Released Parties.
5. MEDICAL AUTHORIZATION. In the event of any injury to me that renders me unconscious or incapable of making rational medical decision as determined by application of a reasonable person standard, I authorize Port KC personnel and emergency medical personnel at the Fitness Event to make emergency medical decisions on my behalf (including, but not limited to, CPR and AED). I authorize Port KC personnel to secure emergency medical care or transportation when deemed necessary by Port KC personnel, on my behalf and at my expense.
6. PHOTOGRAPHY AUTHORIZATION. I understand that any and all photographs, motion pictures, recordings, and/or likenesses of any type of me captured during the Fitness Event by Port KC, its affiliated entities or contractors, and/or the media become the sole property of Port KC. I grant Port KC the right, permission and authority to use my name and any such photographs, motion pictures, recordings, and/or likenesses of any type for any legitimate purpose, including, but not limited to, promotions, advertising, and marketing activities. I further understand that Port KC, as sole owner, has the full right to sell and/or profit from the commercial use of such photographs, motion pictures, recordings, and/or likenesses of any type.
7. BINDING EFFECT. I am executing this Fitness Event Participation Agreement freely and of sound mind and it is my express intent to hereby bind myself and all existing and future members of my family and those otherwise having or potentially having standing to seek relief or redress on my behalf, if any, and my heirs, beneficiaries, devisees, legatees, executor, personal representative and assigns, if any, to the fullest extent allowed by law. This Fitness Event Participation Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri, without regard to its conflicts of law provisions, and any mediation, suit, or other proceeding must be filed or entered into only in Jackson County, Missouri.
8. SEVERABILITY. I expressly agree that the foregoing Fitness Event Participation Agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the law of the State of Missouri and that if any portion thereof is held invalid, it is agreed that the balance shall, notwithstanding, continue in full legal force and effect.
