Requiring waivers at registration

You can make players read and sign a liability waiver before they register for your events. A club can require one, a sanctioning organization can require one, and an event under both can require both at once. Signatures are kept as a legal record you can review and export.

Setting up a waiver

  • Club waiver — go to your club's Settings and find the Registration waiver card.
  • Organization waiver — on your organization's Manage page, open the Waiver tab.

A brand-new waiver starts from a standard sample template you can edit or replace. Give it a title and paste the full waiver text — that exact text is what players agree to and what's stored with each signature.

Then choose your policy:

  • Require this waiver — turn the requirement on for every event (the club's events, or every event the organization sanctions).
  • Let event organizers turn it off for a specific event — when checked, an organizer can waive the requirement on a single event. When unchecked, the requirement is locked and can't be skipped per-event.
  • How often must players sign?
    • Once — valid until you change the waiver text.
    • Every event registration — a fresh signature is required for each event.

Note

Editing the waiver text creates a new version. Everyone must re-sign the new version — signatures on the old text no longer count.

Per-event override

When you create or edit an event, a Waiver card shows whenever a required waiver applies. If the owner allowed overrides, you'll get a toggle to turn the requirement off for that one event. If the requirement is locked, the card shows it as required and you can't turn it off — so you always know it's in effect.

Who signs, and how

  • Self-service — players sign a short scroll-and-agree step the moment they tap Register. They can't register past it.
  • Walk-ins — when you add a guest to a waiver-required event, they sign on your device (they type their legal name and agree) before they're seated.
  • Members you add — when you add existing members to the roster, they're seated right away and then notified to sign. They'll also see an in-app banner prompting them to sign the next time they open Skoryd.

Roster waiver status

On the event page, the roster shows a Waiver status list with a running signed / total count. Each player is marked ✔ Signed or ⚠ Waiver missing, so you can see at a glance who still owes a signature.

Exporting the signature record

Under the Waiver status list, Download signatures (CSV) gives you the full legal record for the event — one row per player per required waiver, with the signer's typed name, when they signed, the method (self, on-device, or attested by an organizer), who facilitated it, and the exact waiver text they agreed to. Keep it for your records or hand it to whoever needs proof that participants signed.

Note

The last column, Body Snapshot, holds the complete waiver text each person agreed to, captured word-for-word at the moment they signed — so even if you edit the waiver later, the record still shows exactly what they saw. It's a long cell, so widen the column (or open the cell) in your spreadsheet to read all of it.
