Tournament Pledge

Obligation to Adhere to Regulations and Personal Responsibility

I have thoroughly reviewed the tournament guidelines set by the organizer and agree to comply with all regulations, rules, and instructions related to the tournament. Additionally, I will participate in the tournament under my responsibility, with sufficient consideration for my health and safety. I pledge to immediately stop competing if I experience any abnormalities in my physical condition during the competition.

Confirmation of Participation Suitability

I am currently in good health and do not anticipate any issues that would prevent me from participating in the tournament.

I can confirm that within one year prior to the tournament date, a health checkup by a physician has confirmed my health status. If there are any issues such as hypersensitivity, allergies, or pre-existing conditions that require advance understanding by the tournament medical team for emergency treatment, I will notify the organizer in writing beforehand. Similarly, if there are any special medical conditions or concerns due to religious or other reasons, I will submit a written notification. If requested by the organizer, I will promptly submit a medical certificate or proof of stress test results.

Understanding the Characteristics of the Competition

I understand that the tournament is held in a rapidly changing natural environment and that competitors' physical conditions may change suddenly.

I also understand that since the course is set in mountainous areas away from public roads, there is a high possibility that rescue and response efforts may be hindered in an emergency. Due to my physical limitations, I will be accompanied by an attendant for safety, and I will comply with the organizer's decision if they determine that participation is not possible.

Obligation to Adhere to Recommendations to Stop the Competition and First Aid

If the organizer determines that continuing the competition is problematic, I will unconditionally accept the recommendation to stop competing.

I also agree to allow doctors, the organizer, or related parties to provide first aid if I encounter an accident, injury, or illness during the tournament. I will not object to the methods and results of such first aid.

Exemption from Liability for Force Majeure

I pledge not to hold the organizer responsible for poor competition conditions or the inability to ensure safety due to weather deterioration, emergency declarations due to infectious disease outbreaks, on-the-day traffic conditions, or other circumstances beyond the organizer's control.

I also pledge not to hold the organizer responsible for any changes to the course or competition content due to the nature of the event, which takes place in a natural environment, or due to landowner convenience, sudden disasters, accidents, construction, events, or other circumstances beyond the organizer's control.

I will not claim any payment for participation fees or expenses incurred to participate in the tournament in these cases.

I also agree that, regardless of the organizer's responsibility, the course may be shortened or changed due to the condition of the course, which is not on normal traffic roads. Additionally, I will not seek any compensation or reimbursement for expenses incurred to participate in the tournament in the event of equipment loss or damage affecting the competition or competition records.

Consent for the Use of Personal Likeness and Information for Publicity and Commercial Purposes

I agree to participate in the tournament with the understanding that my likeness, name, address, age, and competition history may be used in all tournament-related publicity and reporting, as well as in various information media.

I also consent to the commercial use of printed materials, videos, and information media produced by the organizer and related organizations.

Exemption from Liability for Injuries and Fatal Accidents

If I am injured, develop any aftereffects, or die during the competition or related events, I pledge not to hold responsible the tournament executive committee, security personnel, volunteers, tournament staff, sponsors, officials, landowners, or any other related parties, including the country, prefecture, or city hosting the event.

I will review and pledge to comply with the above-mentioned items for each tournament.
