Updates

December 18, 2015

I have been reviewing the testimonials left on this petition and the accounts regarding head injuries are deeply concerning. These documented experiences reinforce the necessity of implementing mandatory protective headgear for all youth players. Current efforts are focused on drafting a formal proposal for the local league board to review at their next session.

December 18, 2015

The momentum behind this petition highlights the growing consensus regarding the safety of our youth athletes. This collective focus indicates that the time is right to bring these proposals before the relevant sporting boards.

I believe that Tyler Romero has done his research and find it very true. Sports are essential to every growing child with exception of being protected. This is the reason my son did not play soccer, however he did play football, baseball and occasional basketball.i feel protecting our youth to become our future is essential. There need to be mandatory rules in place to protect the future of any child. Thank you Tyler for caring about yourself and your peers.

This is a cause very close to my heart being a (retired) neuro nurse and a football mom/wife.... It's so important to protect our children. I am signing AND sharing!

I think this is extremely important having a 13-year-old daughter playing AYSO and now hearing and reading about all the effects of these injuries later on. Please take this seriously.
