The goal keeper in Blind Football is typically sighted. This is the only outfield position allowed on the pitch with full vision, providing a crucial defensive advantage though their play area is restricted only in 2 meters long by 5 meters wide box area.

Blind football doesn’t only give visually impaired players an opportunity to compete but also leadership.
