Hello,
I was going to send this only to members in that area but thought it may be better to send it out to the list.
I think others may be either attending or wish to do this if they offer you the chance to take part, please let me know after the event.

Hi Richard,
It was great speaking with you earlier; thank you again for taking the time! I wanted to follow up with some more information about Audio Descriptive Commentary (ADC) and the upcoming opportunity we discussed.
ADC is a live play-by-play service specifically designed for blind and low-vision fans. It provides real-time descriptions of everything happening on the field. Who has the ball, where the play is, crowd reactions, and celebrations, so fans can follow the full match experience from start to finish.
We're currently piloting this service with U.S. Soccer and will be offering it at the USWNT vs. Ireland match on June 29th in Cincinnati at TQL Stadium.
We’re offering free tickets for visually impaired fans and one companion to attend and experience the service first-hand.
I’d love your help spreading the word or connecting us with individuals or groups who might be interested. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. I’d be happy to provide more details.
Looking forward to staying in touch!
Best,
Jacob Kaplan

The National Federation of the Blind advances the lives of its members and all blind people in the United States. We know that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. Our collective power, determination, and diversity achieve the aspirations of all blind people.
