Terms And Conditions

Responsibilities, Rules, & Liability

PLAIN-ENGLISH SUMMARY OF THIS AGREEMENT

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. THIS AGREEMENT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

By booking time at or entering TeeBox Golf LLC, you are agreeing to the following in plain terms:

  • You accept the risks.
    Playing golf in an indoor simulator facility involves risks, including being hit by golf balls or clubs, equipment malfunction, slips or falls, and injuries caused by other guests. These risks can result in serious injury or death.

  • You are responsible for yourself and your guests.
    TeeBox Golf operates as an unmanned facility. There are no on-site staff or real-time supervision. You are responsible for your own safety and the safety of any guests or minors you bring with you. In an emergency, you must call 911 yourself.

  • You give up the right to sue TeeBox for ordinary negligence.
    To the fullest extent allowed by law, you agree not to sue TeeBox Golf LLC for injuries, damages, or losses that happen while you are using the facility, even if they are caused in part by TeeBox’s negligence.

  • You agree to arbitration, not a jury trial.
    Any dispute must be resolved through binding arbitration, not in court, and you waive your right to a jury trial or class action.

  • You are financially responsible for damage.
    If you or your guests damage equipment or the facility, you agree to pay for repairs or replacement, and you authorize TeeBox to charge the payment method on file.

  • You are responsible for medical costs.
    TeeBox is not required to provide medical assistance. If medical care or emergency transport is needed, you are responsible for the cost.

  • Rules matter.
    You must follow all posted safety rules and facility policies. Failure to do so may result in removal from the facility or loss of access without a refund.

  • Minors require supervision.
    If you bring a minor, you confirm you are their parent or legal guardian, accept responsibility for their supervision, and agree to indemnify TeeBox for any claims related to the minor’s presence.

By proceeding, you confirm that you understand this summary, have had the opportunity to read the full agreement, and voluntarily accept these terms.
