[Blindtlk] Blind people and "Catch"

[Gary Wunder]

Hi. Not a stupid question at all. You know where to throw by telling the
person you want to throw to he needs to make a sound --over here would work.
Catching is the tricky part--a ball with a bell might work out for you. A
basketball is fantastic because it has a ring all its own.

Hi,
Tom here hoping I don't ask a dumb question.  I'd like to know if anyone has
done this or not.

I was hanging out with some of my school friends and one of them thought
it'd be fun to play ball, a game of catch.  The other thought it'd be fun
but then they looked at me and figured I wouldn't play because I'm totally
blind.
I told them not to worry about it, and they just played catch for a while
and then I had to go anyway.

Anyone here play any ball or games like that?  How could I have joined in or
know where to throw or things like that?
Just curious.
