William Fairbrother was a Canadian ice hockey player who is credited with inventing the ice hockey net in the 1890s. During the 1880s, Fairbrother played for Beamsville, Ontario's Men's Hockey team.^[1] At first, two poles or two rocks served as goals, and an official would watch to see if a puck passed through the goal.^[1] However, disputes arose over goals and biased officiating.^[1] Then, Fairbrother, who played as a goaltender, got a net from a local fisherman and strung it from the poles.^[1] Players were immediately more satisfied with the new system.^[1]

The Ontario Hockey Association soon thereafter credited Fairbrother with the idea.^[1] Hockey Hall of Fame records indicate that Fairbrother's idea happened in 1897 or 1898.^[1] The Jordan Historical Museum of the Twenty held an exhibit on Fairbrother.^[2] In February 1997, the town Lincoln, Ontario designated Fairbrother's home a historical site.^[3]
