Visually Impaired Students Learn to Play the Adaptive Sport of Blind Baseball
On Saturday, May 4, nineteen students ages six to thirteen from Lighthouse Guild’s Youth Skills Program gathered in Central Park’s Heckscher Ballfields 5 to participate in a clinic for the adaptive sport of blind baseball. The mission of the Youth Skills Program is to provide social and recreational services to legally blind children to help them build self-confidence. During the school year the students gather monthly to participate in social and recreational activities that include drama, physical education, yoga, technology, arts and crafts, and community field trips.

    I am visually impaired, too. When going through doors or up and down stairs without a rail. Allow person to stand behind guide with hand on a shoulder. They can sense the descent and ascent while moving around.

    In the case of one of my friends, here's NOT what to do. Don't grab them by the arm and drag them across the street. Literally one of my friends waiting to cross the street and some old guy came up and grabbed him and dragged him across the wrong intersection. Both him and the lady who saw it screamed at him to stop but he wouldn't.

    Definitely now totally blind persons are capable to do much more in orientation and mobility. They even can differentiate colors, books on their colors and authors, cars on their color and models, etc. And to locate any needed object around, even in new environment. And walk confidently along roads and paths on their own without canes or guides.

    I think the agencies for the blind need to have training for the medical personnel who should know how to work with them .I told my class mates at Ultimate medical academy. I just got my Associates degree in health and human services. What about turnstyles and those streets which go in a circular manner. I need to change my top.
