Youth Liability Releases
AMA Competition Rulebook Page 66

An authorized adult acting on behalf of the parents or legal guardians must provide a notarized statement indicating they have been given the authority by the parent or legal guardian to be responsible for the minor during the meet. The parents, legal guardians or authorized adult must remain present while the AMA member they are responsible for is at the meet.
