WARNING UNDER THE AUSTRALIAN CONSUMER LAW

Under the Australian Consumer Law (Victoria), several statutory guarantees apply to the supply of certain goods and services. These guarantees mean that Tennis Victoria is required to ensure that the recreational services Tennis Victoria supply to the Participant are rendered with due care and skill; and are reasonably fit for any purpose which the Participant, either expressly or by implication, make known to Tennis Victoria; and might reasonably be expected to achieve any result the Participant has made known to Tennis Victoria. Under section 22 of the Australian Consumer Law and Fair Trading Act 2012, Tennis Victoria is entitled to ask you to agree that these statutory guarantees do not apply to you. If you sign this waiver and release form, you will be agreeing that your rights to sue us under the Australian Consumer Law and Fair Trading Act 2012 if the Participant is killed or injured because the services provided were not in accordance with these guarantees, are excluded, restricted or modified in the way set out in this form.

NOTE: The change to your rights, as set out in this form, does not apply if the Participant’s death or injury is due to gross negligence on Tennis Victoria’s part. Gross negligence, in relation to an act or omission, means doing the act or omitting to do an act with reckless disregard, with or without consciousness, for the consequences of the act or omission. See regulation 5 of the Australian Consumer Law and Fair Trading Regulations 2012 and section 22(3)(b) of the Australian Consumer Law and Fair Trading Act 2012
