That is some impressive spatial mapping going on with the sound and distance. They seem to pause for a bit before the shot, I wonder what they’re processing.
Haven't you seen the documentary Daredevil?
Why isnt the keeper blind?
I'm guessing they maybe have fully blind players, and partially blind players. The partially blind have to wear masks.
Just a guess though.
Edit: so actually according to Wikipedia:
Teams are permitted to use sighted athletes as goalkeepers and guides;
All players, except for the goalkeeper, are blindfolded.
There are leagues where partially blind people are allowed to play, they're ranked by level of impairment and can have x number of players at higher vision ratings.
They cover his nose so he can’t smell where the goal is?
