Abstract/Contents: | Discusses leasing fields and complexes for youth sports activities. States that "a smart organization will do a safety and liability walk-through to identify, and then discuss, concerns before they sign the lease." Explains that "after the lease is signed, it becomes the organization's responsibility to assume all the financial accountability in solving the problems and handling the insurance claims for incidents that do occur." Suggests "prior to signing a lease, develop a basic checklist to assess potential liability and use the information gathered to [the] organization's advantage." Emphasizes that "preseason inspections should take place in advance of the date set for signing the owner's proposed use agreement to allow sufficient time to correct any problems discovered." Concludes that one should "be proactive. Recognizing and eliminating a source of loss is far better than legal wranging over who is responsible for loss that does occur." |
