KNOW ALL PERSONS BY THESE PRESENTS, that I, [principal_name] (the "Principal"), a resident of the State of [state_law], being of sound mind and under no duress, do hereby make, constitute, and appoint [agent_name] (the "Agent" or "Attorney-in-Fact") as my true and lawful Agent, to act for me and in my name, place, and stead, with respect to the powers and authority described herein.
WHEREAS, the Principal desires to appoint the Agent to act on the Principal's behalf with respect to certain matters, as more particularly described herein; and
WHEREAS, the Agent is willing to accept such appointment and to act in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this instrument; and
WHEREAS, the Principal intends this Power of Attorney to be governed by the laws of the State of [state_law] and all applicable provisions of the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Principal hereby declares and grants this Power of Attorney as follows:
The Principal hereby appoints [agent_name] as the Principal's Attorney-in-Fact (the "Agent"). The Agent shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Principal in all matters described in this instrument, subject to any limitations expressly set forth herein. The Agent shall exercise such powers in a fiduciary capacity, in good faith, and in the best interests of the Principal at all times. The Agent shall act with the care, competence, and diligence ordinarily exercised by agents in similar circumstances and shall not engage in any self-dealing or conflict of interest unless expressly authorized herein.
The authority granted to the Agent under this Power of Attorney is designated as follows and shall be construed in accordance with the applicable type of authority selected below.
Subject to the type of authority designated above, the Principal hereby grants the Agent the following specific powers and authority: [powers_granted] The Agent shall exercise the foregoing powers prudently and in the Principal's best interests. In the event of any ambiguity regarding the scope of the powers granted herein, such ambiguity shall be resolved in favor of granting the Agent the authority reasonably necessary to carry out the Principal's stated intentions. The Agent may employ and compensate, at the Principal's expense, such professionals, advisors, accountants, and attorneys as the Agent deems reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of the Agent's duties hereunder.
This Power of Attorney shall become effective as of 2026-04-19, subject to any springing provisions described in Section 2 above.
This Power of Attorney shall expire and terminate automatically on 2026-04-19, unless sooner revoked by the Principal or terminated by operation of law.

Any actions taken by the Agent after the expiration date shall be void and of no legal effect.
Any third party who receives a copy of this Power of Attorney, whether original, photocopy, or electronically transmitted, may rely upon the authority granted herein and may act in accordance with the Agent's instructions without liability to the Principal or the Principal's estate, heirs, or assigns. No third party shall be required to inquire into the validity or continuing effectiveness of this instrument, nor shall any third party be liable for acting in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney. A third party who refuses to honor this Power of Attorney may be liable for attorneys' fees and damages as provided by applicable law. The Principal hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any third party who acts in good faith reliance upon the representations and authority of the Agent under this instrument.

Any revocation, amendment, or modification shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery of written notice to the Agent and to any third party who has previously relied upon this instrument. Until a third party receives actual written notice of revocation, such third party may continue to rely upon the authority granted herein and shall not be liable for any actions taken in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney prior to receiving such notice. Upon revocation, the Agent shall promptly return to the Principal all documents, records, property, and funds in the Agent's possession or control that belong to or relate to the affairs of the Principal.
This Power of Attorney shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of [state_law], including but not limited to the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted by the State of [state_law] and any amendments thereto.

As a Pennsylvania CrossFit affiliate owner, your box faces unique risks daily—from equipment failure and member injury liability to strict compliance with the PA Wage Payment and Collection Law. A Power of Attorney ensures that if you are unavailable, a trusted agent can handle everything from CrossFit HQ license renewals and ADA compliance issues to the enforcement of liability waivers and payroll. Securing your operations under 33 Pa.C.S. § 6 and local UCC adaptations allows your community’s PRs to continue without administrative interruption.
Beyond the standard power of attorney sections, this template adds fields specific to CrossFit Gym Owner:
A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that enables one person (the principal) to designate another person (the agent or attorney-in-fact) to make decisions and act on their behalf in specified or all matters. The document serves as a legal empowerment that allows the agent to manage affairs such as financial transactions, health care decisions, and legal proceedings, thereby ensuring the principal's affairs can be managed even if they are incapacitated or unavailable to oversee them directly.
Member Injury Liability
Use of comprehensive membership agreements and liability waivers that include clauses outlining risks and releasing the gym from liability to the extent permitted by law.
Equipment Failure
Regular maintenance and inspection logs, and including indemnification and limitation of liability clauses in contracts with equipment manufacturers.
Yes, provided the 'Powers Granted' clause specifically includes the authority to execute contracts. In Pennsylvania, under 13 Pa.C.S. § 2201, certain contracts over $500 must be in writing. Your agent will have the legal standing to sign equipment leases or membership agreements to ensure waiver enforceability and operational continuity.
The Power of Attorney can grant your agent authority to manage payroll in compliance with 43 P.S. § 260.1 (Wage Payment and Collection Law). This ensures trainers and staff are paid on time and termination wages are handled correctly to avoid stiff penalties and labor disputes while you are away.
Yes. To be enforceable in Pennsylvania, a Power of Attorney must be signed by the principal, notarized by a notary public, and typically requires two witnesses. This high level of verification prevents fraud and ensures your CrossFit Affiliate remains in good standing with local health departments and corporate headquarters.
If specifically authorized in the 'Powers Granted' section, your agent can represent your interests during OSHA inspections or handle employee conduct matters relating to 43 P.S. § 516.1 (Medical Marijuana Act), ensuring your gym maintains state-specific compliance standards.
