I am going to the Canadian National Blind hockey tournament today. I went last year and it was way beyond what I expected.

It was explained to me that the forwards typically have the better sight (they have some limited vision), the defense less, and the goalies even more so and are sometimes blindfolded to cut out glare.

They play with an oversized sound rattling puck. The pace for the national team tryouts was way beyond what I thought it would be given I had no idea how it worked or was played.
