New York health officials pulled back a proposal that would have placed new regulations on classic kid games like tag and Wiffle Ball that officials deemed unsafe.
Just in time for summer camp season, the list was delivered to towns, villages and camp operators, and in a surprise to many, games like kickball were placed in the category of “significant risk of injury.”
In turn, public outcry called for the state to stay off their handball courts.
Some had called it an attempt to “legislate fun,” as the proposal faced increasing criticism from lawmakers and recreational sports businesses.
