    The product, in the report: Quad teeter totter by play craft and [REDACTED]

    On 5/22/2025, my 7-year-old daughter suffered a serious injury on a newly installed quad teeter-totter (Playcraft Systems PC-1924) at [REDACTED] in Smyrna, Tennessee.

    During normal play, her foot slipped off the back of the foothold, causing her to fall backwards and land on her outstretched arm. This resulted in a displaced fracture that required emergency treatment, sedation, and a reduction procedure. The injury is ongoing and still may require surgery. She was in such severe pain that she reset the bone herself before seeking help for herself despite screaming.

    The surface she landed on consisted of flexible rubber grass mats placed directly on top of dirt or compacted ground. These mats do not appear to meet ASTM F1292 impact attenuation standards, and the school district has not provided any site-specific testing or inspection reports to verify compliance. No documentation has been provided showing review or approval by a Certified Playground Safety Inspector (CPSI) prior to the playground being opened for student use.

    I am concerned that both the equipment and surfacing were installed without proper safety oversight, leading to an avoidable injury. Im submitting this report in hopes of triggering a full safety review of both the quad teeter totter, the grass mats, and the facility. In hopes of preventing future harm to children.
