More Details
Goalball for schools is supported by the King's School. It encourages a fun, interactive and supportive environment towards physical activity.
The ball itself is a heavy, hollow, 1.25kg rubber ball, larger than a basketball, which contains a bell. The object of the game is to roll the ball down to the other end of the court and past the oppositions' defence and into their goal.
