I'll tell you the same thing that I tell the Amt group. "Free loaner weapons on first visit." Mundanes assume that things cost money, and they'll think they are getting over on the first visit. When they fall in love with hitting people with sticks, they'll be much happier to know it's all absolutely free. You need that worm, though.
Also, someone bite the * bullet and take phone calls. Put someone's phone number on there, and expect 2-3 calls weekly at best.
Start doing this now, as in today. Make sure everyone fighting has a properly signed waiver. If they're an adult, hand them a pen and a waiver and don't let them fight until it's signed. If they're still a minor, really push the importance of getting the waiver signed before they are allowed to fight, but give them a week to get it signed by their parents (unless they seem really accident prone ). If they show up next week without a signed waiver, tough ****. Hand them another one and tell them to go home, get it signed, bring it back, and fight.If their parents have questions, they can come out and see for themselves what's going on.iskatyel wrote:I haven't pushed waivers, although I have them ready. Please fill me in here on what has/can happen, especially with the reference to adults sparring with minors. I am missing the lawsuit related details behind 'clearly obvious'. I am not opposed to waivers, I just haven't required them yet and a few stories to enlighten others always helps to encourage compliance.
iskatyel wrote:So only the minors must get them notarized, right? I can probably live with that. Does anyone require both parents to sign? The link I posted cited at least one case where the parent who hadn't signed sued the school and won. Again, are we the only ones requiring notarized forms? I haven't seen this anywhere else.
I would love to use one written up by a real lawyer. I just picked my favorite bits out of several waivers I found online from private and public sports groups and combined them with the waiver in the NRSK. The link to the wolfpack waiver seems to be down. Is it the same as the one in the NRSK and if not, how do I get a copy?
