Blind Baseball Workshop
Blind baseball is a fast-growing sport for visually impaired athletes with strong paralympic aspirations. In this workshop, you’ll discover how the game is played and experience what it’s like to move across the field without sight—guided only by sound and the support of trained sighted assistants. You will try base running blindfolded, listening for the sound-emitting equipment, and exploring how players hit, field, and throw the ball without vision. If you’ve ever wondered how athletes navigate the game using hearing and teamwork, this is your chance to find out. We are always excited to share this unique and inspiring sport with new people. Come and be part of the movement!
