Description

The ball was designed to play on an open-air field. The rules were developed that way, that almost all the players have their eyes covered (that allows both visually impaired and non-disabled people to play together) the only players who need to have sight are the goalkeepers. The players who approach the ball shout “coming!”. Moreover, on the side lines and behind the goals there are “guides” of each team who have to narrate what’s happening on the field and give hints on how to play, who to pass the ball, which direction should the player shoot etc.. The rest of the rules is similar to the regular rules. The only difference is that the ball is equipped with a bell that signals a blind person where is it located.

The ball is covered with a soft, polyurethane fabric which makes it resistant to severe weather conditions and prevents deformation. Bells which are inside the ball are made of stainless and non-magnetic steel. The inside of the ball is made of a latex bladder which ensures the users that it’s going to keep air pressured inside.

The ball is available in two colors:

-         yellow with black, red, and silver printing,

-         white with black, red, and silver printing.
