Saudi Arabia launches football experience for visually impaired fans

In a significant development, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s (KSA) Ministry of Sport has taken a step towards inclusive sports experiences by launching innovative initiatives during the Spanish Super Cup in Jeddha specifically catering to visually impaired football fans.

The initiative will provide visually impaired fans with an interactive



board featuring tactile indicators that track ball movement in realtime. Comprehensive audio descriptions will offer a live and detailed commentary of the matches.

The visually impaired football fans will receive free tickets and designated seating and their companions, ensuring they can fully enjoy the atmosphere and excitement of the event.
