Assumption of the Risk and Waiver of Liability Relating to Coronavirus/COVID-19
As we’re reopening post lockdown due to the worldwide pandemic as declared by the WHO (world health organisation), there are still associated risks associated with training as with all aspects of day to day life.
As such, by booking any of our classes you agree to the following as a prerequisite to training and attendance:
Attendance / coming to the facility

- You may not attend any classes if anyone in your household has presented any signs or symptoms of the virus, or indeed any form of possibly related illness within the last 14 days this includes cough, temperature, loss of smell or taste, breathing difficulties, migrane, fever etc.
- You may not attend any classes if you believe yourself or anyone in your social circle or household to have been in contact with anyone who has contracted COVID-19, and must not do so for 14 days after the contact was made.
Risk of infection:
COVID-19 has not yet had a vaccination or counter measures to infection in circulation. As such there is an ongoing risk of infection in any activities in day to day life. By booking a class, you agree that you are taking full responsibility for this decision on behalf of yourself or your child, and release Asylum Weightlifting Club Ltd. from all liability arising from possible infection in connection with any activities carried out by the Club or its coaches and volunteers.

- go directly to my allocated plafrom or area, and remain there to minimise the risk of spread throughout the duration of my training
- Any immediate risk to health as deemed necessary by the coaching staff shall take precedent and priority over distancing measures. All coaches are authorised to be within the social distancing requirement, but only where an immediate risk to health, such as a failed lift, or first aid is reqiured. This applies only to coaches, and athletes must maintain distance at all times.
- An isolation room is available, and may be utilised as a waiting area to be picked up should anyone present with symptoms during training.
