Hi,
I have a question regarding minor contracts. A minor engaged in a 4-year contract with a coach who trained an Olympic athlete. When the minor signed up, he went and bought $30000 worth of brand name clothing and equipment from a store yet to be delivered.
I am struggling with putting the explanations of contract for necessaries and beneficial contract of service. I am in two minds. Is the coaching a contract a beneficial contract of service? As it is beneficial for the minor, or is it a contract of necessities? I have seen a case for golf apprenticeship that said it’s contract was a contract of service, and I have seen a website saying that music lessons or coaching come under necessaries? So I am a little confused.
Also, would the contract between minor and supplier of goods be a contract of necessaries? And we have to prove if it was necessary or not?
Thanks in advance
