I like football because there's a lot of action, and it's a lot of fun. It's just a culture here in America. My name is Mindy Dill and I am Deaf/Blind. Before I could see the TV, but now since I've lost more of my vision I don't know where the ball is on screen and often I just can't follow the game. If I have someone like an interpreter, or someone sitting behind me describing on my back what the action that's going on, I know exactly where the ball is. What happens is I'll have someone behind me or on my knee giving me information tactilely so I can understand exactly what's going on in the game. Now I can see some of it but I can't see everything. I can see that they're kicking a ball but I don't know where, I can't track the ball with my vision so I can't see where the ball is going but if I have someone on my back telling me exactly where the ball is going I can follow the game easier. You could use a board that looks like a football field. A tactile field with lines and braille numbers so you'll know where the yard line is and where the ball is. Also, there's places on either end where the field posts are so you can feel the board to know what's going on in the game. I don't wanna stop watching football because I enjoy it. There are some people who are fully deaf and fully blind who still enjoy watching the games. And they have people who help them by describing what's going on on TV. My name is Mindy Dill and I love football!
