Rules and Legal

Rule Enforcement

Unsafe behavior will not be tolerated at Lazer Events.  Violations of the rules will result in the loss of game privileges for individuals breaking the rules, suspension of game activities, and possible cancellation of the event.

Safety

Lazer Events is a safe activity for children ages 8 and older.  However, like many sports activities, running, jumping, and active play is often involved.  It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that a safe play environment is available, and that participants in Lazer Events are of appropriate age and physical condition for the game environment.

There are no real lasers used in Lazer Events; the taggers only use infrared light similar to that of a television or DVD remote.  This eliminates the possibility of eye damage due to intense laser beams.  No laser pointers or laser sights will be permitted on the playing field.

Lazer Events is a non-contact sport.  Players are not to tackle, push, pull, trip, or otherwise make physical contact with any other player.

It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure adequate water or other hydration is available to prevent heat or dehydration injuries.  During cold weather or rainy events, the customer must provide a place for participants to dry-off or warm-up.

Game Location

It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that a suitable game location is provided.  All hazardous and off-limits areas are to be clearly marked by the customer.  The customer is responsible to obtain all necessary permissions and permits, and to pay all site rental fees for the play area.

Lazer Events serves the New River Valley area of Virginia.  All game locations more than 20 miles from Christiansburg, Virginia will have additional fees for travel to and from the location.

It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that all necessary authorities and surrounding groups are notified that a Lazer Event is in progress.

It is the customer's responsibility to ensure all rented or borrowed areas are cleaned after the departure of Lazer Events.  Clean-up fees of $100  per hour plus any cleanup expenses or fines  will apply if Lazer Events personnel are required to clean up the area after the customer has left the game location. 

Law Enforcement

In the event that a Law Enforcement officer arrives  to conduct an investigation at a Lazer Event, all participants are to immediately drop their taggers on the ground and raise their hands in the air.  Under no circumstances should a participant point a tagger at a Law Enforcement officer or other armed individual.

Bad Weather

If bad weather or other condition makes the playing area unusable, the customer may elect to move the activity to an alternate safe area, indoors or outdoors.  No extension of event duration will be granted to compensate for time used to relocate the event.

Alcoholic Beverages

Alcoholic Beverages are prohibited from Lazer Events.  Consumption of alcoholic beverages by participants or spectators are grounds for immediate cancellation of the event.

Equipment Loss or Damage

The customer is responsible for any and all damage to and loss of  Lazer Events equipment that occurs at the customer's event.  Customers will replace materials at the current replacement cost for equipment (including shipping, handling, and taxes)  in comparable condition before damage or loss occurs.

A refundable deposit may be required for certain equipment and events.

Cancellations

If, due to bad weather or other causes beyond the control of Lazer Events, a Lazer Event must be cancelled, the following rules apply:

• If the cancellation occurs after 1 hour after the scheduled start of the event, no refund or compensation is due under any circumstances.
• If a cancellation occurs before 1 hour has elapsed after the scheduled start of the event,  an alternate date and location may be agreed upon by the customer and Lazer Events, subject to date availability.  The duration of the rescheduled event will be for one hour less than the originally scheduled event.   No refunds will be given if a reasonable arrangement cannot be made.
• If a cancellation occurs before the event begins, an alternate date and location may be agreed upon by the customer and Lazer Events, subject to date availability.  The duration of the rescheduled event will be the same as the originally scheduled event.  No refunds will be given if a reasonable arrangement cannot be made.
• Lazer Events reserves the right to cancel all or any part of the event without refund due to rule or safety violations.

Liability

Under no circumstances will Lazer Events be held liable for injury, death, property damage, or loss of life or property at a Lazer Event.  The customer is responsible for maintaining sufficient liability insurance for the entire Lazer Event.  If the customer notes unsafe activity on the part of Lazer Events, it is the customer's responsibility to bring this to the attention of Lazer Events and/or cancel the event or halt the unsafe activity.
