A growing library of blind soccer videos and documentaries can be found at the bottom of this page.
Blind soccer was introduced to Canada in 2014 as part of the 2015 Parapan Am Games promotion. Ironically it was the only sport that Canada did not enter a team in to compete. As a result of that promotion and then the subsequent legacy an estimated 1800 people (children, teachers, players, coaches and community leaders) have now experienced blind soccer. The legacy of those 2015 Games were approximately 40 audible balls, 20 eye shades, kick boards and official size goals. While the balls and eye shades have long been distributed to the blind community the kick boards and goals have been used in multiple games across Ontario.
Ontario has become a hub for blind soccer in Canada, although programs have previously existed in Quebec. Club programs currently exist at Pickering FC, North Mississauga SC and Kitchener SC. Clubs interested in starting a program can contact inquiries@soccabillity.ca.

Sponsorship opportunities include team jerseys and events. Probably our greatest asset is the sponsorship of the custom built kick boards that run alongside the two lengths of the field. Sponsorship can be provided to just one kickboard or the complete set. Contact inquiries@soccability.ca

In 2017 the Ontario Government first included blind soccer as part of the Ontario Parasport Games:

Blind soccer is regarded as one of the Paralympic Games most popular sports and played by 46 countries at international level. Blind soccer has the power to demonstrate the impact sport has from a myriad of angles -as an individual and as a society. Every session reinforces the power of football for good and that football is for everyone.
