Visually Impaired Sports
Visually impaired sports are athletic activities designed for individuals with vision loss. These sports often use specialized equipment, such as tactile balls or sound-emitting devices, to help players navigate and participate. Popular examples include goalball, blind soccer, and beep baseball, which adapt traditional games to ensure inclusivity.
Organizations like the International Blind Sports Federation promote visually impaired sports worldwide, providing opportunities for competition and recreation. These sports not only enhance physical fitness but also foster teamwork and social interaction among participants, helping to build confidence and community among athletes with visual impairments.
