The VI Consortium is excited to collaborate with the Metro Washington Association of Blind Athletes to host a Goalball tournament on campus Oct. 1-2 at the Cage Gym in the RAC.
This event will bring Goalball teams from a variety of places to compete in the tournament.
Goalball is a paralympic sport; highlights from the Rio 2016 Goalball games can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMP8uzaob0I
In order to make this event a success, we need volunteers to judge/score games, work registrations, and help with transportation to and from the hotel on Fairfax Blvd (Comfort Inn).
Below is a form to sign up to volunteer and a Facebook event page.
We will host a volunteer training on Thursday, Sept 29 from 7:30-9:00 to discuss game rules, volunteer positions, sight guiding techniques, dog guide etiquette, and other event information.
This meeting will be in the AT lab, Krug 102, on Mason's Fairfax campus.
