Soccer Goals Recalled
190,000 soccer goals were recalled after a child's death.
About 190,000 MacGregor and Mitre folding soccer goals were recalled Tuesday, after the death of a young child.
The CPSC said the netting had gaps that were 20 square inches apart. Ideally they should be less than 17 square inches or greater than 28 sqaure inches in order to prevent a child becoming trapped or possible strangulation.
Parents and caregivers are advised to stop using the nets, which can be returned to Regent Sports in exchange for a free, safe replacement. For more information, call
