This document discusses liability and negligence related to athletic facilities. It identifies four major legal issues facilities must address: 1) complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act, 2) ensuring staff certifications are current through regular audits, 3) having automated external defibrillators available, and 4) obtaining proper documentation and insurance to limit liability through good Samaritan laws while covering acts of negligence. Athletic administrators and facilities can be held liable for negligence of employees and must address these legal topics to reduce risk.
