Signing a waiver does not mean you can’t sue a club. If the club is not adhering to or violating state laws or guidelines and your kid gets sick...then you have a right to sue. If the club is operating within state guidelines, you sign a waiver and your kids gets sick...then it will be tough to sue. Signing a waiver does not release a club from all of their responsibilities to follow state and local laws, bylaws and guidelines. The US and NY state is still in a state of emergency enacted by the president and governor respectively.
I've been trying to explain this to many people. They seem to be driven by emotion. This also pertains to the playing fields and venues. Any established club will be taking a large risk at this time allowing teams to get underway. If by chance, a club selects to operate outside the guidelines set in place by U.S. and State and someone files a claim, insurance company will not indemnify the club.
