What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NJ
Hello - my kids play competitive junior squash. It has become quite common for parents to videotape their kids matches so that it can be reviewed later. This helps kids improve and spot their weaknesses and strengths. Coaches like to see videotape of their players so they know where to focus attention on. Squash is played in an enclosed court with two players at a time. Most courts have a glass back wall or stadium seating to allow viewers to watch.
US Squash has put together a policy that requires parents to seek permission from the opposing parent before videotaping a match for all kids under the age of 18. Here is a link to the policy: http://www.ussquash.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Broadcast-Policy.pdf
There have been instances that I've encountered where some parents won't allow their children to be taped. Squash matches are typically held in private clubs which are generally open to the public, and there is no expectation of privacy. Although videotaping a match when one parent doesn't give permission might be in violation of US Squash policy, would this be against any state or federal laws?
Just wanted to know my rights
