TORONTO — An Ontario bill that would require movable soccer goals to be secured — named in memory of a 15\u002Dyear\u002Dold boy who was killed by one — may become law…
Bresee introduced Garrett’s Legacy Act, which would establish requirements for safe usage of movable soccer goals that are used by members of the public. It passed second reading this week and is set to go to a committee, then be brought back to the legislature for third and final reading, which Bresee said may happen in the fall.
“I never knew that mobile soccer nets presented a risk, and I’m willing to bet that, like me, many parents have seen their kids play on or near soccer nets without ever stopping to think that they could tip over,” he said.Article content Bresee said he didn’t know Garrett, but has a personal connection with his father. Dave Mills reached out to Bresee just a few months after Garrett’s death, when Bresee lost his daughter to leukemia.
