Blind football is an international Paralympic discipline, it is the adaptation of football for the visually impaired. In France, the French Handisport Federation manages licensed athletes and competitions.
Players compete in teams of five (four visually impaired players and a goalie) and compete in two distinct categories:
Blind 1: for players who are blind or have poor visual perception. All practitioners in this category will be placed on an equal footing while playing with an opaque eye patch and blackout eye patches. The guardian, meanwhile, is sighted.
Blind 2 / Blind 3: for visually impaired players. The caretaker can be sighted or visually impaired. Visual acuity in the better eye, after correction, should not exceed 1 / 10th (tolerance nationally up to 2 / 10th) or exceed 20 ° of visual field. For more details, a player classified B2 has a maximum visual acuity of 1 / 20th and a maximum visual field of 5 °. A B3 player, on the other hand, has a visual acuity of between 1 / 20th and 1 / 10th and a visual field of between 5 ° and 20 °.
Footballers use a sound ball, equipped with bells to spot it.
Blind football has its own World Cup and European Championship.
The France team will be at the Tokyo games.
League 1 clubs like the Racing Club de Lens or the Toulouse Football Club have their own blind football section.
