PREGNANCY STATEMENT The following wording is derived from advice provided by Minter Ellison Sports and Litigation Lawyers.
"Pregnant players are advised the continued playing during pregnancy exposes them and their unborn child to health risks. Advice should be sought from an appropriately qualified medical practitioner about those risks and whether, or for how long, it is safe to continue participating.
Australian Law imposes on a pregnant player a duty to take reasonable care to avoid foreseeable risks of injury to her unborn child. If a player fails to do so, she runs the risk of being sued by her child later in life.
Players owe no greater duty of care to a pregnant player than they owe to another player. Players are liable only for those injuries that they cause by acting outside the rules of the game in a manner that is not ordinarily and reasonable contemplated by other players.
The duty of care owed to an unborn child by another player is similar to that owed to the mother and all other players; namely, to play by the rules in a manner that other players would ordinarily and reasonably expect."
I have read and understood the terms and conditions associated with my registration with Wesley South Perth Hockey Club and agree to abide by them. Please tick box to confirm your agreement with the above.
