Blind Sports Nova Scotia's focus is providing sports and recreation for blind and visually impaired athletes of all ages and skill levels. We currently offer Goalball as our primary sports activity but we are expanding into other sporting activities. Please contact us below if you have any questions!
Blind and visually impaired athletes are grouped into one of three (3) sight classifications:
B1: Someone who has no light perception in neither eye, up to light perception but with the inability to recognize the shape of a hand at any distance or from any direction.
B2: Someone who has the ability to recognize the shape of a hand up to the visual acuity of 2/60 and/or monocular visual field of less than 5 degrees.
B3: Someone who has the visual acuity above 2/60 to visual acuity of 6/60 and/or monocular visual field of more than 5 degrees and less than 20 degrees.
