...and they probably could've lost their ass if something happened to him and there was no paperwork signed by a parent or legal guardian unless he's an emancipated minor. Legally they really should not have let him run without such a form....if you're a minor, then you pretty much have no legal right to speak for yourself it would seem. They could have some really weird insurance, but I don't know of any that do not operate this way.
