In mid-august I spent four days on this FA Level 1 Coaching Course to help equip deaf role model to develop football skills in deaf 10-14 year olds. The course was well delivered, fun and accessible for all ages, abilities & preferred communication styles. There was a wealth of intensive signing practice and I gained some really useful resources to equip me to use football as a vehicle to introduce Ugandan Sign Language with the isolated deaf next year. I can see a deaf football tournament overseas!
It was interesting to meet other deaf adults working in sport, to learn about national deaf football, the deaflympics and efforts being made to increase participation amongst under-represented groups in football, such as the deaf, the blind, amputees etc
(Answer to Q: the ball contains ball-bearings so that it makes a sound when it moves)
