set up nets on the goalposts in all recreation grounds around South Wales

What the petition asks

to consider buying affordable netting for goalposts in South Wales

Anybody who plays football or whatever game they use the goalposts for are either losing their balls in the road or having to run pretty far in order to fetch their balls back however installing nets would prevent this problem and make these parts of the park way more enjoyable not only for children but for people that have a passion for sports like football
