This Cup is her way of giving thanks for God’s goodness and faithfulness in her life — through the sport she loves.

I release the organizers, Yeshua Community Center, the referees, and the volunteers from all claims arising from any injury, loss, or damage I may sustain during the event, except in cases of gross negligence.

In a medical emergency, I authorize the organizers or a designated representative to obtain emergency medical care on my behalf, including transportation to the nearest medical facility. I understand that the cost of such treatment is my own responsibility.

I will use a paddle suitable for play, wear court-appropriate footwear, and follow the USA Pickleball Rulebook. I will respect the Tournament Director’s decisions, my fellow players, and the venue.
