The Spain-Switzerland match in Córdoba will be broadcasted for the visually impaired
The second match of the UEFA Nations League will be the first encounter of the women's national team to be broadcasted with descriptive narration for the visually impaired
The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) will broadcast a match of the women's national team for the visually impaired for the first time in its history. This will be the match against Switzerland, which will take place on September 26 at 9:00 PM at the Nuevo Árcangel Stadium in Córdoba, the second match of the UEFA Women's Nations League. This will be done through an application that provides a descriptive narration of the match, just like what happened with the matches the men's national team played last March in Malaga and on September 12 in Granada.
Everyone with visual impairments will be able to follow the world champions' match, both in the stadium and at home, through a specific application that offers descriptive narrations of the matches, without ads, comments, or any distractions other than the game itself, simply by downloading the application:“RFEF Narración para personas ciegas” (RFEF Descriptive Narration for the Visually Impaired).
The path to equality among individuals is achieved through the implementation of tools that ensure universal access to our sport, overcoming any barriers and without distinctions between athletes when promoting their work. Therefore, providing narrations for individuals with visual impairments for a match of the women's national team continues to break barriers in terms of accessibility and, at the same time, contributes to ensuring that our female and male athletes have the same avenues for the social dissemination of their image.
This initiative aligns with the efforts made by the RFEF to make it possible for all fans to experience the passion of football and the Spanish National Team. Another action that has been implemented is relaxation rooms for people with autism.
