# How do I sign a waiver for my athlete?

> Sign a club's waiver with a drawn signature during registration, or later from the athlete's registration page.

<Note>
  **Must know**

  * Waivers usually come up **during registration or checkout**, but you can also sign one later from the athlete's **registration page** — for example, when a missing-waiver action item sends you there.
  * A multi-page waiver can be covered by **one signature**: in checkout you can sign page by page or tick **sign all pages at once**, and the registration-page dialog always applies a single signature to every page.
  * Your **action-item dashboard flags any unsigned waivers** per athlete and registration, and reminders grow more urgent **within 7 days** of a program's start date.
  * Some clubs set a waiver to **expire** after a set period. Once a signature expires it counts as unsigned again — checkout asks for it and it reappears as an action item until you **re-sign**.
</Note>

Clubs require you to accept their waivers before an athlete can take part. The easiest time to sign is during registration, but you can also catch up afterward from the athlete's registration page.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Sign during checkout">
    When you register an athlete for a program that requires waivers, the waiver appears as part of checkout. Read each page, then draw your signature — either on every page, or tick the option to **sign all pages at once with a single signature**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Or sign later from the registration">
    Missed one? Open the athlete's registration in the parent portal and find its **Waivers** section. Choose **Sign waiver**, enter your name, and draw one signature — it's applied to every page of the waiver.
  </Step>

  <Step title="You're done">
    Once every required waiver is signed, you can finish registering. Your signature is recorded against the **athlete and that waiver** — not a single program — so signing once clears it for every program, membership, or booking that requires the same waiver, unless your club set that waiver to expire, in which case you re-sign it from the registration once its period passes.
  </Step>
</Steps>

If you skip or miss a required waiver, it shows up as an action item in the parent portal, tied to the specific athlete and registration, and links you straight to the signing dialog. The reminder becomes more prominent as the program's start date approaches, so it's easy to spot what still needs signing.
