About this template
Managing risk is a top priority for any equestrian business. This Horseback Riding Waiver template provides a professional, digital way to capture participant information and formal liability acknowledgments before riders mount up. By moving away from paper forms, you ensure that every rider—or their parent/guardian—has reviewed your safety protocols and signed off on the inherent risks of the activity.
This template is designed to be clear and accessible. It collects essential contact information, emergency details, and explicit consent, ensuring you have a digital record of every participant. Whether you operate a trail riding business, a riding school, or a boarding stable, this form helps you stay organized and prepared. With Doc2Form, you can easily distribute this link via email or QR code at your facility, allowing riders to complete their paperwork on their own devices before their session begins.
