Canadian Blind Hockey

Canadian Blind Hockey provides competitive ice hockey programs for children and youth who are blind or visually impaired across the Greater Toronto Area. The organization teaches players fundamental skating and hockey skills while fostering teamwork, confidence, and athletic achievement. Using a specialized ball that makes audible sounds, teams compete in regional and national tournaments. The program serves children from age six through young adulthood, offering both recreational and competitive levels. By adapting traditional hockey for players with visual disabilities, Canadian Blind Hockey creates opportunities for young people to participate in a sport typically inaccessible to them, while building lasting friendships and demonstrating that blindness need not be a barrier to athletic pursuits.
