Participant’s Undertaking

I understand that bows and arrows are weapons and traditional archery can be a dangerous sport. The organizers of the training will instruct trainees on safety procedures and make their best efforts to conduct all training in an orderly and safe manner.

I undertake to pay close attention to all safety instructions given by the instructors, to wear appropriate and safe clothing and accessories at all times, to follow all instructions by the instructor and to take responsibility for my own safety and the safety of those around me.
