Blind football training can feel isolating with few players or specialized coaches. After a workshop with @UniOfHull , Eve Watson joined me to refine her coaching skills. Coaches, students, universities—let’s connect!

🌟Visit our NEW British Blind Sport display!🌟
Ft. @RoyTurnhamMusic's custom made football boots.
@BritBlindSport are the national disability sport organisation working across the UK to ensure that people with sight loss have the same opportunities as sighted people to access sport and physical activity.
🎧 For more information about the items on display, and for #AudioDescription, visit: paralympicheritage.org.uk/wh…

ALT This image shows a display case on the left hand side, containing 8 items relating to British Blind Sport. From a distance you can see a football boot, blindfold, a few photographs, a medal, a t-shirt and some publications. To the right hand side, there are corresponding labels and information boards, but these are too far away to read.
Thanks so much everyone for the support.👍🏻 can’t wait for the semi-final! – at Silvi, Abruzzo
