These events are open to blind and visually impaired youth ages 9-18 in DC, MD, and VA. Goalball is a team sport designed for people with visual impairments. Participants will have the opportunity to learn the game from adult players on the DC men's and women's goalball teams during the two practice events. At the May 10 practice, we will form teams for the tournament. This will be a great opportunity for your child to participate on a team in a fun and exciting sport designed for them. 

Transportation options for getting to Columbia Heights Community Center: There is limited street parking in the surrounding residential neighborhood. There is a parking garage at the shopping center a few blocks north on 14th Street, which is a 10 minute walk from the gym. The Columbia Heights Metro station is less than 1/2 mile away from the gym. 

Parents are encouraged to stay for the duration of each event.
