On the Record Episode 7 - Goalball; A Sport for the Blind

This episode of On the Record dives into a topic near and dear to me, Goalball. Goalball is a sport for the blind that I have been playing for about 12 years. Last year in September I had the experience of playing on the Seattle Killer Cobras team, when we placed 2nd in the Goalball National Championships in the B Division. Next month, I'll be going to Atlanta to play in the SouthEast regional tournament as a "pool player."  

 

“In this episode of “On the Record” I interview Richard AH – SIU of the Seattle King Cobras and Honda Sao of the Grit City Sound about the sport of Goalball, a sport specifically designed for blind players. They discuss the ins and outs of the game, Seattle’s trip to the US Nationals, and the international Goalball scene.
