Portable Goal Post Hire Has Safety Obligations That Are Frequently Overlooked
A portable football goal that tips over onto a child is a catastrophic incident. Every portable goal must be anchored according to BS EN 16579 and manufacturer specifications. Without inspection records per goal and a documented anchoring method statement per hire, the hire company's liability in any incident is undefended.
